Well first off, I want to again thank John for bringing this thing back from the dead. I had many people tell me to either sell it, part it out or forget to strap it down while towing it for an insurance claim. Don't think these things didn't cross my mind.

but i'm a firm believer that the best things in life take some effort: sometimes serious effort.

Besides, like many people here I enjoy owning something a little different. It's really great to have the support of people like John to keep this brand alive.

This guy and his lovely wife not only opened their home up to a relative stranger but John worked tirelesly for 2 plus days to help me out. I can't help but wonder if this support exist among Jap quad owners. I seriously doubt it. I thought I was relatively safe buying this quad from the former owner of a cannondale dealership but boy was I wrong. There was so much stupid sh*t this guy did ,it was unbelievable. It frustrated both John and myself more than a couple times for sure! This weekend was one of the hardest , yet most rewarding weekends I've experienced. I learned a lot and thanks John for working me so hard I almost fell off your couch from fatique Sat. night. :

I'm looking forward to finally getting out and riding this machine and hope to catch up with you on Mi. soil sometime this summer. John's dedication to C'dales is unquestionable and at the risk of sounding sappy,I think I've made a good friend in the process. Sorry if I rambled, but there were things that needed to be said. Bill
