Clay, let me say it would be a lot worse without your help and support. Thanks.

When will we possibly see 2stroke Shercos?

Let's see, positives...

Nobody makes a prettier bike than GG. The US importer is on the ball, a complete turnaround from the disaster of 2002-2006 when the factory thought they could do the US importer role themselves. New investors bring new cash, and when cash is strategically deployed, it can work wonders.

Remember GG branded Chinese four wheelers? Ugh. Things are on the right track. I just don't have any dealer nearby, and for me, that's important, and the main reason I bought a fighting fish bike.

Give me a history lesson here. What had happened when the factory did the importing back in 02-06? Which four wheelers are the China ones?
Thanks

I think it's a pit board that says," ease up on the over revs" or something like that?
