If anyone is interested in a scooter ... I can highly recommend the Suzuki Burgman . It has a 400 cc engine and a huge under-seat storage area that can house a rolley full of shopping .I only ride mine in fine weather and when I feel good! .... It makes me feel even better. According to the on-board compyter I get to ride 25 k`s for just 1 litre of fuel .Its so easy to ride and to sit on. I have had big bikes in the past but this bike is just as satisfying. It has a big screen . The only accessory I have added/invented is a cruise control which is just a regular hose clamp on the right hand grip so that my wrist can take the bike for a cruise without my whole hand locked into the one position for longer rides.
Whoa ! As of September 2017 ,I now ride a new 650. It's my second one. I sold the first one because I wasn't riding it.
I have weakened and bought this one recently, despite having back problems . I love it!

rc heli ... nine eagles explorer
My partner and I just changed the radio control mode from Mode 2 to Mode 1 ... so if you need any help ...she is your woman! well kinda ... she sits beside me at the moment so....
I am very impressed with the nine eagles helicopter ; so much so I have bought a second . I smashed my first one last week-end and it only cost me A$ 65.00 to repair !
It was daunting to do the aforementioned changeover but , shucks , no one else was going to. I have had many hours of pleasure flying this heli. It is not so great at going straight forward but it makes up for it by going sideways very well [ right lever hard over].... but it all takes practice . It was very satisfying to rebuild it after smashing it into a pole- on full throttle ! trying to escape the said pole . I thought it would be very out of tune.... but with a little fiddle she is flying again and will be my main heli. The new one is a back up/ emergency craft that I can copy if a rebuild is required again. I think it will be ... I am being more cuatious and giving myself more space. Knowing when to quit flying or shift to more shelter is important . I had had the little mosquitos for over a year and was ready for this next level.
