To the people at Golden
Eagle,
I just wanted to drop you all a line to let
you know how much your product and services
are appreciated. I'm 58 yrs young and a retired
Police Officer, started riding a bicycle
two yrs ago for health reasons, bypass surgery
on the old ticker! It soon became boring
riding the same area around my home.
I've always been a little
reluctant to venture
to far away in fear that
I wouldn't have
the power to make it back
and would have
to call my wife for help!
With the addition
of your product on the
back of my bike those
fears are now gone!! In
fact the boredom
has changed to adventure!
It's just downright
FUN! The Tanaka 40cc has
plenty of power
to haul my 200 lbs around
all day long! Although
I am having trouble getting
it away from
my wife who loves riding
it too! Sooo next
month I'll be ordering
another to mount on
her bike. Then watch out
, we have a couple
of nice trips planned for
the summer, Block
Island, etc . only day
trips, but then who
knows?

I've never purchased anything over the Internet
before and was a little reluctant to start,
given the horror stories I've heard. But
this experience has been nothing but a pleasure!
A question emailed in the morning resulted
in a response by the afternoon and a package
delivered two days later, problem solved!
I pray that service like that will reap you
much success in your business and I'm sure
that it already has.
All I can really say is
thank you! Please
feel free to use this letter
and photo's
in anyway you see fit.
Again, Thank You,
Joe Cortese
PS. the mount worked out
great, no more bungee,
and turning the engine
90 deg. was a snap,
no more hot butt!. It did
however pose a
minor problem with fueling!
It seems the
Tanaka gas tank filler
comes out at a slightly
different angle than the
rest! A 5/8"
male garden hose end repair,
a rubber O ring
and small length of 5/8"
fuel line.
The male garden hose connection
fits right
onto the MSR fuel bottle!
You can throw out
the plastic clamp that
comes with it if you'd
like. Filling up is a breeze!
Now if I can
only figure out if the
gas tank pickup tube
goes all the way to the
bottom of the tank!
LOL I'll let it run dry
and see what happens,
not a big deal to extend
it. If it ever stops
raining out here I'll do
that and let you
know what happened. Also
a good glass side
view mirror (not the plastic
dime store variety
)and a high quality helmet
are absolutely
vital.
