Thanks for all the kind words.

Mike, not sure about which swingarm I'm going to get yet.
I think the tank holds 9 liters (2+ gallons) and the stock monkey holds 4 liters (1 gallon).

fastbmw, on one night ride, we did a top speed run with the scooters and I was keeping up with the fastest 4 scooters (I think some had fixed up Zuma motors and some had the GY6 type motors)

FastMC, yeah the bike can get twitchy, but if you relax, it does surprisingly well at speed. I was actually able to keep ahead of the KSR110 on a ride (or was he letting me win?) Oh yeah, he was only running a 3 speed semi auto, but nevertheless, I think the minis surprised many among the modded scooter crowd.

DJhunny, just wait until you take a spin on the Gorilla. I don't think you'd give it back to me!

~E, it wasn't us coming down ACH, but I'd be interested in a ride up there.
