Glad to have you aboard, so there is hope for me after all. I'm 63. Yes there is a lot of upkeep on the bikes but they are fun and cheap to operate and repair. I did a ring job before mine ever left the yard but it only cost me 15bucks to do it, try doing that with a car.

My big complaint is with the add on parts and the chain situation which really is with the tensioner which is also an add on. Once i corrected my stupid mistake my engine has been just fine.
