Hey everybody. My name is James. I am 29 years old, and have been riding since age 5. My dad bought me a Honda 50cc bike when I was 5. I live in West Virginia, am married, and have 3 wonderful children. I just recently started riding again after a brief 10 year break. I had a pretty scary accident (was hit by a car), and got scared of riding for a while. The gas prices finally got the best of my fear, though. The wife and I stopped in to look at a scooter at our local dealership. I looked at several scooters, and found one that I really liked. Then, at the back of the showroom, something caught my eye. It was a Qlink Legend. I went over to it, and fell in love. I wanted it so bad.....just didn't quite have the money for it yet. I waited. And waited. And when I finally got the means to get this bike....they were sold out and had no idea when more were comming in. They did, however, get in this new bike-a Lifan LF 250B. When I saw it, I thought it was a bigger bike than a 250. I also thought it was a Yamaha or Honda. Much to my surprise, it was the same price as the Qlink!! I bought it. Now, 1200km later, I am very happy that I got the Lifan. No problems with it, and it is a great ride. Fuel economy is terriffic, too. I am getting around 96 mpg!! I ride it daily as my work vehicle, rain or shine.

Well, that's me.....
