| Hi All, Has been a long time since I've made any comments on this site or even ridden my SWing… Since before last winter and up till now have been a bit of a "lazy butt'. Been involved the last six months in selling a house and buying another one up 'north' here in Atchison, KS. Put the SWing in a basement garage storage area along with the mower and golf cart (no, I don't play golf) and just let everything set. Plus, this house is a complete renovation project that we should never have taken on at this stage of life... but...
Anyway, got the SWing out yesterday after fixing the dumb garage door and then put my charger on the battery. Took a good part of the day to charge back up. Finally, with the oil and water checked, I turned the key and it all worked well. Took it out for about 15 minutes and really enjoyed getting back in the mix of things. Know this is a pretty mundane report but I'm just happy to be "going" again !!
Hope y'all are doing well during this "virus" thing... |

| Hi DickO. Yup Winters suck. We're doing well here. MN is in a stay at home restriction. We can only go out for the essentials. Me and my family are doing OK, so far. All the eating places have pretty much closed down for indoor seating although many of them have delivery or take out. No telling how long this is going to continue but hope everybody lives through it all both health wise and economy wise. |

| Winters are tough there were four or five days this past winter that it wasn't pleasant to ride. Didn't even have to connect the battery tender on the scoot this year. |
