Title: New member from Arctic Norway
Post by: dagbre on January 02, 2007, 04:56:12 PM: Hello, CVO Friends!

I just wanted to say hello from Norway. This year I got my SEFB in autumn haze/abyss blue, probably the world's northernmost FB, with stage 1 & misc goodies. See pic below. I love the bike! Can hardly wait till summer, but I have to as we are below zero degrees over here & ice everywhere. In the meantime, I enjoy my AC pantera 1000 snowmobile.

Take care!

Greetings from dagbre, Spitsbergen, Norway

Welcome! I believe you are the only member we have from Norway (gang- correct me if I'm wrong). Great looking scoot... I know you're itching to ride. I'll bet the scenery is fantastic when you do ride.

Don't quite like the look of where your location pin is - looks kind of wet and definitely not conducive to keeping the rust off your Scoot.

Great looking FB though, hope the warm weather comes for you soon.

Title: Re: New member from Arctic Norway
Post by: djkak on January 05, 2007, 07:45:02 PM: It is my sense that the only thing necessary to get a 1 liter Ditch Pickle to run 110 MPH is to crank it up and give the throttle a big ol’ pinch!

150 ish ponies @ 550 ish pounds. These things will tug smartly on your posterior when you push on the throttle.

The sled is stock, 998 cc and 175 hp, 2-cycle engine. I changed the reed valves to Boyesen Power Reeds to get more responsive throttle, thats all. Great fun! It's heavy, though, not well suited for steep climbs. I use it for driving to work.

My youngest daughter is trying the sled below.

That does look like a great machine (wow 175hp) & a whole lot of fun but I am still glad that if I want some snow action I have to travel 6 or 7 hours to a ski resort.
