  • Today we have a nice treat for you guys, just a fun video as we test and review a new electric moped style bike from Addmotor, the Soletan M-66X. We have been having so much fun with this bike, as it will take all 3 of us on fun excursions whenever we want, regardless of road conditions due to its fat-tire design which will follow paths on dirt or sand, even at the beach! Hope you guys enjoy the video, thanks so much for watching, and we look forward to your comments below!
    Cheers,
    Captain Rick, Maddy, and RIcci

    Your right about the front shocks. Seems to be a bend, in the fork, jamming up the plastic cover from sliding down easily.
    Buy, DRY graphite spray, sand wouldn't stick,
    Of take the forks apart. Take the plastic cover off. Lay a level, 12" on the fork bars. See if there bent. It only takes a little bend.
    And you should hide a GPS, tracker on the bike.

    Hi folks. Capt. Rick, I hope your surgery goes as well as mine did. I had my hiatal hernia repaired in April 2023 and the surgeon did a 3/4 wrap. It was in a really bad condition but now I can eat pretty much anything. I do take papaya tablets if I eat something I know will not go well with me. They are GREAT. I am no longer on medication at all. I was diagnosed with Barrett's Esophagus and was the worst case my dr. had ever seen he said in his long career. I am so glad I had the surgery. I hope you have the same results.

That was back in the day, when there were paying sailors, very few electronics.

    Second, watch, the video, Rick, richie was out cold asleep, in that seat, he was a bobble head. One quick turn from you, and richie's neck would snap. A tip, the same neck support for airlines, that you blow up, and put the horse shoe, pillow around your neck. U might want to shop for a kids size. Keep it with you, richie falls out, and is sleeping, at least, his head and neck will have support.

    Did anyone but me notice that Tiki is back on board? Did I miss a video or something explaining where Tiki was found?

    One more,..a big hahaha, on the dog harness kids need those... I 7sed them on my kids. Heres a tip, where your tired of them aka richie not calming down.
    That rope that comes out the recoil.
    Is so strong... carry a hammer, and a eye let screw...richie, keeps trying to run in the street..... hammer the eye let in a palm tree,. Pick richie up, let 4 feet of the rope, out.....
    Hang Richie from a tree like a swing. He will know who's boss. . Also, u can swing him.done it, it works, add a strap under there legs, a bucket harness swing,
