2 years from now at 16....after she has taken a rider safety course.
I think the wife is eying it because her feet touch the ground a bit better than the 350. ;D

Runs great after it warms up for 10 Min's, but it's a #$%* before that. Coughing and banging?  Afetr that no problems.

just came back from another ride on it ;D  corners like mad.

Dude, you sent my wife an application to the ride.  Just like a govt employee ;D  ::)

I wanted you to email her a sales pitch on how much fun she would have and what she could look forward to.
She's not keen yet, get back at er if you want to see us there.

Perhaps the ignition is a little advanced.

Looks great!  Hey, give Kathleen the option which bike to ride for Nick's event (provided your daughter won't mind).  Maybe that'll help.  Better yet, take both bikes and ride together.   ;)
