Thanks on my first paint job.. Typical human.. I was squinting and looking for any sag..fish eye etc.. We can be critical of ourselves. My Scoot business is going well this year.. So far I have built 19 performance engines for folks and all are happy. Now if it would only get above 50 degrees here in Michigan...our riding would be more pleasant. Oh yeah..tell yer baby girl..I bought a Derbi scoot from craigslist.. I have no clue what it may be..it says Manhattan on the side? I just know it is fast..parts for it seem to be difficult to find unless I order from England?..

Ha! Forget the mower attachment, you need to get a heated cab for that thing!!
Seriously, it'll be a while for MI to get warm, I think, as cold as the Great lakes got this winter...

True there...we broke a 120 year cold spell and snowfall record..98 days below 32 degrees and a 118 inches of snow. The Great lakes froze over and that is rare.. We got our last heat bill and all it say is.. "Bend over"..:lmao:
