Thumbs up Greetings from Mexico !!!

Hi everybody:

I live in San Carlos, Sonora, Mexico, by the Sea of Cortes.

IŽve built my first motor bike and I enjoyed very much the assembling and the riding.

I use my Micargi motor bike every day about 20 - 30 miles... just to brake in the engine.

Thanks a lot for all the information provided in this forum.

See you in the road !!!

Best regards.

Mel

Nice looking bike Mel
I like your seat and basket

Can you buy the Chinese 2 stroke kits in Mexico?

Are there many of them down there?

How do the Mexican laws treat motorized bikes?
Insurance?
Drivers licence?

Mordida?

Thanks for your complements, Forbisher.

The Low Rider seat is longer and allows you to seat further behind the bike, just above the rear wheel.

We have several dealers here in Mexico, but still not many motor bikes running.

Mexican laws? IŽll let you know when IŽm stopped by the police. Same thing with Insurance and DriverŽs License. My car license is expired since last year.

I give no mordida. Never.

The basket is very useful to carry a 6-pack and a gallon of milk.

Regards.

Welcome!! Not very many people here on MBing.com from Mexico. It's interesting that we sell some products to Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, etc, and they have terrible import taxes, but rarely Mexico which should have NAFTA low taxes.
