Many miles in 11 days

Post by Keys »

Just bought my Rattler 110 11 days ago and I now have just shy of 700 miles on it...678, I think.

Lots of local riding and then a scooter rally from Glendale, AZ south through Phoenix, Paradise Valley and Scottsdale to Tempe. I met the others and we headed north through Mesa, north on Hwy 87 to the Bush Hwy, across to Usery Pass, then down into Superior. Hooked a left on Hwy 60 in Superior and went up to Globe, AZ where we camped on the other side for two days. A day ride on Saturday to the Salt River.

Back from Globe, through Superior, Apache Jct., Tempe, Mesa, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and finally Glendale. Over 400 miles in 3 days.

The scooter ran beautifully, kept up with all but the hottest and provided more fun than a box full of puppies. I'll post pictures soon...

As promised...a few pics. The pictures start from the way it looked in the beginning to the way it was at the end. The girl riding my Rattler in the one pic is my friend Sammy...best friend ever.

The white lettering says "CARS SUCK" and the black lettering that used to say "RATTLER" says "RETART" in that picture...courtesy of the the Pharoahs of San Diego.
