Been lurking for a few weeks now, so thought it was time to jump in! New rider here, I got a gently (I think) used EFI Scrambler and so far have put on, oh, maybe 5 or 600 miles on it. So far so good!

I've already learned a bunch from hanging around here, so hopefully someday I can contribute something useful.
oh and until then, listen to my beats:
