    Don't be scared. Take your time, ask questions, and don't be afraid to make mistakes sometimes that's the only way you will learn. Go for it!!!

    Hey guys, just bought another Maverick! 76, 250, $350 bucks, haven't gone through it fully yet, did some fluid changes tonight, bought it from tony, will get some pics up, question, can't decide if the cougar tail lights look better, need a vote which is better
