Slightly off subject but a lesson. My local motorcycle shop (Honda of Norfolk) got hit with a Smash and Grab. A bunch of no-goods ran a stolen U-Hail thru the front doors, grabbed 5 dirt bikes and vanished into the night before the police arrived. Three of said dirt bikes have been recovered but...

Quick tip: You need to reduce photo size down to 40% before posting. I have Android and that's what I have to do for the photos to be accepted.

I use a Flodylock when out and about locally. I also use Hexlox on my front wheel and seat/clamp. If I go into the dense city area I bring along my Litelok D-lock. My area is medium crime level and "so far" my locking methods has worked for my needs. Like mentioned above your local bike shop...

We went thru the same nonsense years ago when Virginia made mopeds get tags. WHAT A MESS! No one at the DMV knew what to do and there was a error on one of the registration forms that I "Took advantage of". It was almost 2 years before DMV got it together (and made me re-register the moped). I...

Co-worker got this from a family member. It was his dad's (who passed awhile ago) and the saw "vanished" from the shed. It was found and recovered. It starts and runs but needs a serious tune up. Parts are on the way!

The new owners of Rad have hinted at replacing the unsafe batteries, at least at a substantial discount. So if you have a Rad with a battery that was in that serial number bracket I'd reach out to Rad and see what happens.

I'm wondering if the laws will change here in Virginia. I saw at least 8 moped style ebikes today while coming home from the dentist. This was near our oceanfront area. Over half of them were fast, very fast! So far no enforcement here. Oh, and only one guy wearing a helmet. He was spotted...

I wish every bike had a chain guard from the company. I can cobble one together if needed but its just nice and easy when one is already included. That looks great US!

The new Scrambler is regulated to 20mph on throttle, and I doubt that you can easily make it go faster, so that means most kids will not be lusting for one. They want fast no-name Amazon emopeds! This Scrambler is a good start at revitalizing Juiced, and as mentioned before being backed by the...

Fresh water at the moment. Our tank got taken over with black molly fish and I'm getting kinda tired of them, so when one dies we don't replace anything. I would love to try salt because I think I can pull it off. I'm not going over 55 gallons, and I was told "Dilution is the solution for...

Lately I've been putting the water swap water on the front lawn! We just got thru a drought and my yard barely survived! That's the only plus I can find for the fish tank right now!

It hurts my eyes to see a 4-stroke Lawn Boy. I grew up with a 2-stroke model and have always had a fondness for them. That being said i have a battery mower now!

I love motor scooters! I've owned way to many and currently own a Honda PCX.

Im filled with shame typing this. I've worked with chainsaws for 28 years and have never sharpened a chain! I've even been to our in house servicing schools, and I guess i avoided the chain section of the classes. I am in the process of buying a mower blade sharpening kit though.

My wife gets crazy workouts if there are rough trails, headwinds or hills. Otherwise it rides nice for local rides. Electra Townie Ed Roth addition.
