So today was nice enough I took the old Newport (now maxi) out for a spin, and it rides super nice. Not as rough as I thought it might with a rigid front end. It starts right up on the first kick, which just feels great, there is so much compression in the engine, you can feel it. The bike rides pretty sweet, and the seat is just perfect. I'm stoked! The new forks should be finished next week, so it will become a springer again, and sport a front fender. I think a Maxi w/o a front fender looks a little goofy. Now I need to find someone to buy this bike for a little bit more than I have invested in it! Or else I guess I'll just have to keep it, that would be too bad! ;)
