So planning to bump my rode trip to 2018, means I can now finally plan to use vacation time differently in 2017.
So hard to plan without a date, As a SIL # 8327 I was all in August 25, 2014
So I sent E-mail to 'accessories@eliomotors.com' (Thanks to the Previous Poster of this idea)

1) Mirrors Heated & with Turn Blinker markers. I really dislike...
I zoomed up onto the piston shape nice work by the engineer team.
This is definitely new tech designed for this motor's High Compression and not some off the self part that fits an old designed geo motor.
I'm so happy to see the parts close up. Great Stuff EM and IAV
Question to the country of origin of the many Off the self part for the new motor. I had a co worker ask me how many off the self part have you ever bought that were made in america?
Not many that I remember, but hopefully the EM team will promote and spur more USA manufacturing supplies

Those semi trucks flying sure do kick up the rocks.... I want to drive my Motorcycle but the flying rocks are not to friendly in a knee or elbow
