Whats a Gyro like to ride ?
Good question ....
I think its like a ride at Disneyland ... you can go out have a few Myers Rum & cokes ...
it won't fall over you can lean into corners and still have the back wheels on the ground ,
you can freak out people when they look at you riding just lean the bike and they think your going to fall over .... bottom line it's just different . Kinda hard to explain .... But trust me they are fun . I just wish they could do wheelies .

If riding a Spree is like paddling a canoe across the pond, then riding a gyro is like taking a kayak through class 5 rapids...........I've owned some Sprees and sold them........I bought one gyro and now have five.......nuf said.................................. :coolcruise: .... :coolcruise: ...... :coolcruise: ..... :coolcruise: ..... :coolcruise:

That is so weird you ask That .
It is a pain in the @ss ,most of the bikes I keep a key in the ignition , but I have some in a shed and outside covered up that I take the key out .
But how weird I took a pic of the key pile and also my to-do list for tomorrow .

There is an 84 gyro for sale in Indy on Craigslist for 200.

Now there are two 84's wanting 600. http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/mcy/2451179235.html
