WELL HE WORKS AT A LOCAL BIKE SHOP AND THE TOMAC REP LET HIM USE THE 2002 DEMO FOR A FEW DAYS. HE IS NOW SELLING HIS MOTO-X BIKE TO BUY THE TOMAC.A COMMENT FROM HIS RIDING BUDDIES WAS "SLOW DOWN" AFTER RIDING THE NEW DEMO.HE SAID IT WAS A BIKE THAT LOVES TO BE RIDDEN FAST AND IS VERY PLUSH.A LITTLE BIT HEAVY , BUT DIDNT NOTICE THE WEIGHT. |
