I just wonder on straight aways what the top speed guys are getting,an up hills does it go 60mph up hills,i know how weight plays role in this to I guess about 250 I weight alone,how do they do on highways for those who ride them ,I guess I just want to make sure I can keep up with traffick ,when I get to the 55mph zone ,had it up to 40 today,felt pretty good ,I guess it takes about 100 miles for front tire to feel less stiff,some of you know I am getting back into rideing after 5 years away ,an a pretty bad wreck I find it hard to not still think about it,but it was fun rideing around town for about an hour seems pretty good

i guess it does not matter what octane we use ,though I would say there wanting us to use lower octanes couse ellpees probley right no he is right they use junk gas in asia china ,I got to admit though I been using 93 octane in my lawn mower for 10 years now an weed eater blower little 6hp motor ,my dealer said higher octane runs hotter an can couse piston failure ,I am not sure I buy it ,though I will try 89,an we have winter an summer gas hear to ,I guess is does not matter other then puting addatives in ,I heard 93 lives longer then 87 in storage an realy most addatives are alcohol so realy its just if one wants to save few cents ,when I can run lawn mower for 10 years on 93 theres the proof it does not matter 150.00 weedeater walmart deal I never changed the oil just added some , :Dso every now an then I put my foot in my mouth too,but i relize what I been doing for along time

 well i found those tiny little stock speakers actually out a lot of sound for 2 watts each ,an to much distortion,to make the hole to 4 inches a very sharp utility knife work with metal snips for the start ,an the ones I am putting in will fit nice to put the cover back on,so 200 watts to 100 watt amp should sound a lot better ,will post pic when done ,just got another cold day darn weather back an forth mabey next weekend can get it done ,get the amp in ,though I am going to see how the stock stereo powers the bigger speakers ,then add the amp .got them in 200 watts sound good with stock stereo ,but ,the stock stereo does not have enough power its ok,but I think adding the pyle amp 100 watts will make a big difference ,you only get one shot at getting it right ,with the cheap plastic,could add 2 more to the trunk later for suround like some have done with those |

ok I could see using it in the generator that's it it only gets ran few times a year mabey snow blower,actually wear I live have not seen it ,so no,there are recommendations for a reason like my Camaro says use 93 octone in the manual its now close to 19 years old running like a top ,just don't allow gas to sit to long,i say no couse they don't sell it hear ,but I would try it after you guys have used for few years trouble free  ?keep us updated couse if it was that good then every station would be selling it ,an mabey that day will come |

i was told ,they were saying 93 octane but that was the chinese grade gas its not as good ,91 ,but not all stations have it ,a lot of guys are using 87 ,I guess between 89 91 ,only a high performance engine needs 93,they say run it instead of dry gas in winter few tanks is good for getting water out ,as long as its not there gas I would say anything will work

yes I think it will run if I use the remote I have used it a few times,mine seems to work good ,though yes to remember hiting the unlock button 2 times makes sure the power is off,i am going to work on getting my speakers replaced an the amp installed as well as the power outlet

yes as soon as I turn it off it keeps running intermintent just like my four wheeler does until temp is down , if powers there yes ,then it shuts down when temp is right ,but yes anywhear from 30 seconds to a minute ,i though it normal as I have motorcycles do the same only if it hot enough to come on makes sence to me ,alot cars do the same they have made changes to the 2013,only when its hot ellpee,its how I made sure my fan was working after about 15minutes idle in cool weather it comes on,i would guess to say in warmer weather 10 min or less,yes I hear you on the break in I just keeping the rpms up an down ,that speed I talked about 30 to 40 to 55 down 40 then 30,is over 15 minutes to 20,so I figure that wont do to much to affect a bad break in |

depends on whear you live most of fla is flat but they do have some small hills an towns named after them hehehehe spring hill fla is just one, fan should run with key on or off ,that's how mine works ,the first thing i did was climb a big hill ,an was told a bit of sped over up 55 is fine just keep on like my trip is 30 to 40 55 50 45 to 30 so up an down with the rpms up an down ,I know one thing wear I live its not possible to actually follow what my book say s ,an that's not over 30 for first 700,it was the dealer said just drive it check the oil change it 3 to 4 times up to 1000 then every 500 miles ,a quart of oil $4.00 ,some guys would not agree with that ,couse they drive 200 miles one ride ,well me its just a toy until gas gets to 10.00 per gallon ,if I drive mine regulary before may ,it will have to warm up alot very fast I don't like having to dress up like I am rideing snow mobile ,you all in hot citys wellsoon enough it will be bakeing as well as all over ,then there will be a lot of overheating issues I hope I don't end up with ,then we could probley say junk they are ,I am only testing this Chinese scooter to many issues will have me saveing for a desent used silver wing or burgman
