Hi Mike;
    Congrats on the new bike. Can't view it because an error message pops up. Tried a couple of times but no soap.
  HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

I'd love to see it Mike, but the following error message pops up:

"Sorry, an unexpected error occurred."

I can text message a picture but I don't have a current home computer to do anything other than what I have there which I can see it by clicking on it. Mike

Well now that we can see the picture, give us the run down on it! I don't keep up with the modern stuff. Is it a street legal enduro model? I see it has trials tires on it.
  Good luck with it and have fun!

Electric start only, mild engine porting without an exhaust power valve, very nimble and light weight, 203 LBS. Slim exhaust tucked in handles like a trials bike, but can be street legal with turn signal horn kit, etc. Very easy quick change air filter. I've seen online that you can change the cylinder with a 300 with the power valve for more performance if you want and more aggressive aftermarket exhaust available. Bike has super low end and wide power band. Runs great! Perfect woods bike. Dealers were supposedly limited to one per dealership and next year they are going to a four stroke. Mike
