I've ridden the EV's...you're right, they are fine machines...just like the
new Hondas and Harleys....after riding my Loop 3000 miles last week I still
wouldn't trade it for a new EV.....apples and oranges....

| I made the trip for a different reason,to pick up a T3 LAPD and take a test ride . The T3 was not worth moving from next door for $200 let alone $2000 and 1000 miles,so it was left in Vermont. However the TEST RIDE was great!!! I can see why MG will never reissue the loopframe or anything close to it. The EV is an OUTSTANDING ride. Power,smoothness ,brakes,handling AND GOOD LOOKS ! Great machine. Between having my son ,Keith along and having that test spin ,in the mountain setting it more than made up for the corroded T3 drenched in mouse piss I had to walk away from. I just bought a 1993 Cal III Fuelie and now it looks like I will be adding a new EV to the stable as well. The loops were OK in thier time ,but that WAS a LONG time ago. The EV IS art on wheels ,especially from the RIDER's seat when going down the road. An old loop will never again look the same :-}}!!!!! Joe Polselli wrote:
