Me too! It would be nice if it could run at 50 mph though. But I could run on the highway shoulders to and from Hilo. They let bicycles, pedestrians, and mopeds run them. You see lots of Honda Ruckuses, and small 49cc Chinese scooters/mopeds running the shoulders. I sometimes ride my Kymco People 150 on them when I just want to take it easy. The shoulders here , at least on the main highway, are full lane width size. I ride them sometimes when we are having a heavy rain too, as the big drops hurt less at 40 mph than at 50-55!

We can use the bus lanes over here to ride in both on motorbikes and cycles. I dont use them when I am on my T Rex but I do if I am cycling as they are safer than using the normal road. And it gives you that extra buffer between you and the crazy car drivers.

Its August Bank Holiday weekend over here so we get Monday off of work. Its been a tradition for years over here to go to the seaside on your bike on these days so I may take a trip down to the coast then on the T Rex. Was thinking of going down to Broadstairs, its about 50 miles. I thought it would be a good test of how the bike runs over a good distance. My step son wants to come too on his scooter, wife will be at work so as long as the sun is out and there's no rain that's my plan.

This is what shares the garage with the T Rex but as you can see its in a rather neglected state. Its my winter project!

Hi Jon, there's around 1700 kms on the clock now, so I guess that's about 800 miles? Am hopefully getting its first service done in a few days time at a local Skyteam dealership, its way overdue, that's why I haven't pushed the motor too much. Have done three oil changes on it since new so hopefully there is nothing drastically wrong with it.
