| Well, that's quite an introduction. Welcome rockettman.
Those minor modifications which you have made to your SWs are astounding! Please don't tell us it works on water too.
We would be interested to know more about the background to those mods and how you came to choose the Silverwing. Did you do the work yourself etc.
Plenty of info for land-based Sws here. Hope you enjoy the forum. |

| One could easily ask "why not". It's unusual for sure but who ever said the Silverwing wasn't fun?... in some form or other.
The amount of work involved in the customization is admirable. Riding in the snow must be very confusing! |
