| Hello
After many bikes over 40 years decided to dip a leg into a Silverwing, a test ride impressed me greatly, should arrive tomorrow, and oldie with very low miles, found an awful lot of info here in last few weeks. looking forward.

| Howdy to you John... I am trying to picture "dip a leg" in your vernacular... I dipped a leg back in April. Just about over it now.
Welcome to a great group of experts (hehe) .... with 40 years of riding experience, you will surely add to our discussions.
Enjoy the Scoot..... |
