Having a lot of trouble walking these past few months, getting worse over time. So to help adapt to the new me I picked up an electric bike. Nice and quiet and looks pretty cool too I think. Getting it ready to ride for me, legs are so stiff I have to use a stepstool to get my leg over. Have a cart I may mount as as a sidecar, we'll see. And because of how much I fall wife said I need a helmet so I got one of those too [Linked Image]

Nice low seat should keep you off of the nut bar. You guys thinking of getting one make sure you ride it first they are NOT one size fits all trust me I learned the hard way.

You might consider one of the swivel/trunion type of trailer couplers instead of the sidecar deal.
They follow well and gets you through narrower places.
I like the headgear too !
Cool !

Headgear rocks.

If you got some spare time . . . how 'bout a paint job?

Interesting new rig, should work pretty slick for you. Let us know what you think after a few outings with it.
BTW.....nice looking Marlin across the handlebars - out of curiosity what caliber is it ?
Best wishes

I keep having dreams where I have an electric motorcycle. It's always red and mostly plastic. It frequently starts running out of power going up hill. It can be from full sized to kid sized in the dreams.

I do kind of want one.

I like the looks of your bike.

Thanks for all the good words appreciate it , The more I think on it trailing behind would be better and is already set up that way. The Marlin is just a .22, nice little gun
