Excellent! Do you find the blue to be faster?

BlackBike · 04-10-2016, 11:27 AM

2lz... Fast, probably not . Will naturally attract more lookiyloos (traffic,congestion ), thus decreasing velocity.

I have discovered blue is just as fast as orange.

Therefore, I plan to keep both my Zongshen bikes painted blue.

It is going to rain here for the next few days. However, I will watch for this phenomenon to appear in the future.

Come to think of it you maybe right, traffic and Idaho is probably an oxymoron.

and that's a good thing!

I am enjoying the Yamaha XT225 engine in my YamaZong.

Here are a few photos I took while riding last week.

That trail is in the U.S. National Forest, and it won't open until the middle of May, at the earliest.
