That's what I figured, during the last couple of seconds of vid once you rev'd it, it seemed like it was warming up, just thought I'd ask... I found reflective tape down here in Bradenton, not Brandon, probably more trails to ride in Brandon though, I do appreciate your help, thanks bro...

No prob, Ambassador.

If you go, please post and let us know about their operation. Since I'm not living in FLA right now, I can at least help a fellow floridian brother out !! 8)

But when I go back for the short peroid of time I expect to be living in FL, I'll be staying with my sis in Port St Lucie, I can't wait. Though I don't think I will be staying in FL permanently, I kind of grown a fondness to the cold, believe it or not. My wife's from PA, up in the Poconos, I love winter sports, though I have yet to complete a whole ski season without injuring myself :? Well enough of the life story for now

I lived in the Navajo Nation Indian Reservation for two years in northern AZ, and after having moved to the other extreme of the state, can agree with you on that, as far as weather goes. Our winters were cold, but mostly dry. If I had actually gotten a decent wage, I would have been able to purchase an enduro or ATV (this was when these bikes started to catch my eye--even before the 200cc engine was common; the biggest Chinese bikes mostly had 125cc or 150cc engines) The state, itself, is another subject altogether (view my thoughts elsewhere), but the hot, dry summers tend to drag on--kind of like a winter; you really can't get too much recreation in the extreme heat!

hey polygonfla,
How many miles do you have on your bike now and does it seem to be holding up well? That is a very good looking bike. I bought a lifan gy-5, I think if I saw your bike first I would have bought that.
