long distance rides?

Post by blaykus »

I'd like to ride my spree on a 400 or 500 mile road trip. break it up into three days, maybe camp in between. How do these machines handle for sustained periods of operation?

as long as you let it cool off every hour or so and add a little extra oil to your gas. you should be good.

i've been planning on taking my spree across the country. from grand rapids, michigan to san francisco. the longest i've ever taken it in a day is around 150 miles. no problems! once they get warmed up you gain about 2 mph!
