Hmmm, I like the idea he is here in the states, I might have to look in his seat. Thx for the heads up!

Its in pristine shape comeseticaly, but something inside must be gummed up, it is super slow to resopond, and peaks out about 25mph.....this is after I am goping down the road about 5 miles alread...
