Proud new owner of Florence Fat Tire.

Hello everyone!

Name's Mark, I'm 32 with mild cerebral palsy and am now a proud owner of a very gently used Daymak Florence Fat Tire Trike with a G51 display! I never though I'd own one and figured I'd have to travel a ways to get one. Long story short, I live just outside of a small town called Kaslo B.C. that I grew up in and always rode adult tricycles around. Living 3.7km out of Kaslo I had to find an alternative to my aging Adult Huffy, pedal-powered Trikes. Then I found the FT Florence, after searching and searching, and saving and saving, I found that the only place I could get them from was Motortoyz in Kelowna, with a hefty price tag and shipping cost to boot. I was losing hope. I was sitting outside in the woodshed drinking a coffee and you wouldn't believe it but a fellow came down the road riding a red one! I stood up in shock and awe that this was happening, bewildered, thinking I was hallucinating or something, but I wasn't. He pulled into the yard and after a few minutes of introductions and telling him how mind-blown I was that this was even happening, I was test-driving my dream machine! After weeks of him coming out (His name's Ralph) and lending me the trike for a FEW days, he slyly, but kindly mentions that he's planning on selling the trike for a wicked deal, with an extra battery and hydraulic disc break upgrade. I let a few days pass and when he came back, I handed him the price he asked. And just like that, the trike was mine! I was ecstatic and still am. The only thing is, the G1 display no longer shows my current speed of travel, I remember it doing so on my first test run, it also sometimes pops up with an E 07 error (engine failure) but it still seems to run fine to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA.

Kind regards,
Mark
