Wheel-N-It 2,969 #9 Posted January 17, 2015 Very nice indeed Neil. Did you purchase it because of its tie to the Shriners? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RMCIII 838 #11 Posted February 6, 2015 Neil - 15mph seems a little on the slower side. Honestly, if you adjust the levers on the left side, you should be able to increase the speed even more....... Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 2,409 #12 Posted February 6, 2015 I took it upto around 15 mph and I started to get G force in my face lol, you are probably right she would do a tad more mph. It just so happens that I bought another one last week 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
