Joy of the first ride will be yours forever my friend  Glad we could help.Check your chain, and bolts for a while, as they will "settle in". I have a huge grin right now. Makes it all worth while. Tramp

...And the hits just keep on comin'...Wait 'till you make your first grocery run, (or beer run) and find out that the thing actually has a use other than just carrying you up and down your street.
These things are addictive; they should have warning lables that tell you that continued riding will result in an obsession that cost mucho $ but is well worth it. Maybe I shouldn't say that. The Surgeon General might get ideas.
Congratulations. Have fun and welcome to a great and growing hobby.
Easy Ridin'
Tom

it really is addicting. i couldnt sleep the night that i started it up. i couldnt wait til the break of dawn just to tinker and run it a little more. ive been breaking in the engine 10 minutes on and 10 off and then pulling it back into the garauge tinkering and tuning. only been around the block with it. its getting smoother and smoother now and starts pretty easy except on cold mornings.
tomarrow im going to my local DMV and getting it registered because the cops around here are a little uptight. but im hoping to take it off the block and venture to work with it tomarrow. its a 3 mile run and fairly flat land. i live in the san francisco bay area so the streets are full of cops and i dont want to take a chance but i cant wait.
honestly this is such an awesome hobby and i love going to bed with greesy hands that wont clean-up! haha!
wish me luck for tomarrow!

Awesome. Is great to hear.
When asked, I tell folks the only thing wrong with mine is that I have trouble making it turn into my driveway.
