| Hello All,
I am a new Rider at age 50, was sucked in after my wife got a 50cc. After test riding that for her for many miles (had to check out the reliability don't ya know) I got the itch for a big scooter. I got a 2004 SW early Christmas present to myself and got my permit. Now just waiting to for warmer weather (and taking the MSF course to get my full license). Silver SW is sitting in the barn; got some stabilized gas in her and will trickle charge as needed until the time comes!

| Congratulations, sorry you had to miss so many years of two wheel motorized fun but if you work at it you can make up some of that!  I;m an old rider just beginning my seventh decade with 55 years of motorcycles and scooters and can tell you that the Silverwing is one great scooter/motorcycle blend. You'll love it! |

| Welcome...sounds like the Mohawk Trail will be calling you...I once took a long day trip from Long Island up there and rode the MT. It ended up being completely fogged in. I had seen it before in it's full glory, beautiful. Enjoy!! Dan |

| Man, isn't that the way it goes. My brother and I rode to Glacier National park just to ride the Going To the Sun Road and saw nothing but fog. |

| Same thing happened to me. I bought my wife a 50cc scooter, and then ended up getting a 2002 Silver Wing for myself! She says I have always upgraded when buying things for myself... John |
