Blain I purchased a 2005 Silver Wing ABS with just under 18,000 kms (approx. 11,000 miles) on it. A little older but in great shape. |

| Hi Jerry,
Welcome from the Halifax area. You're going to love the S'Wing. Bullet-proof and dependable and so easy to work on.
Isn't Hamilton, as well as our country's steel capital, the "developmental" home of our best figure skaters?
Mike
edit to add: Jerry mine is a 2005 as well. Might I suggest checking the tires for manufacture date code. I found mine to be with several fine cracks a year after I had it. Also check the battery for age. Mine lasted 10 years but a new one made for a more confident ride experience. My tires were 10 years old as well. The rubber is rated for 5 to 7 years life expectancy.

| Welcome aboard the board Jerry. You'll have lots of fun riding in nearby Niagara wine country. Let me know if you plan to be KW way. |

| Wine country?! Could there possibly be a preferred scooter route for a wine country ride?
