PMW is excited to announce our Fall 2002 Sale Price schedule on all Go-Ped® scooters. This price reduction on all units will be in effect from August 26th until November 1st, 2002. The new schedules should allow many of you to keep your current prices while securing higher margins. Please note that the new price you will see on the "Dealer Go-Shop" page is the "Credit Card E-Commerce" price. When you use other suggested forms of payment instead of a Credit Card (Go-Kredit®, wire transfer, cashier's check or company check), you will receive an additional 2% off the invoice...automatically. Contact Dave Lindsay at lindsayd@goped.com for further information on Go-Kredit®. Inquiries regarding payment via wire transfers, direct deposit, and checks should be directed to Grant West, who can be reached at twest@goped.com. When you place an order for over $15,000, you will receive an additional 3% off of invoice. PMW does not accept credit cards on orders over $10,000. PMW has altered the volume discount schedule so you as a dealer will not have to purchase as much as before, but will benefit from even further savings. We feel this will help you prepare for the coming Christmas season that is just around the corner. We hope you feel valued as part of our family, and we hope this pricing structure helps you in your business as an authorized Go Ped® dealer! Related Link(s): Dealer Go-Shop
The 5 Star Dealer Rating System was designed
to help the consumer locate the best, most convenient PMW Go-Ped® dealer in their
local area. In conjunction with Map Quest, the "Find A Dealer" locator on www.goped.com
directs potential Go-Ped® purchasers to local dealers in their area. The MapQuest
function selects the 5 closest Dealers, geographically, to the inputted address.
This service supplies a printable map with driving instructions right to the front
door of all PMW Go-Ped® dealers.
The dealer rating is intended to promote and bring recognition to dealers who represent the Go Ped® family of products the best with comprehensive sales, service, and protection of the Go-Ped® brand name. We have elected to utilize a "5 Star" dealer rating system that emphasizes total customer support. . Since the consumer has typed in www.goped.com, using our brand name to find our products, we feel that this rating system rewards the dealers who best represent us. We look forward to all dealers striving to be the best, and look forward to helping you become a PMW recognized "Gold Star Dealer!" Related Link(s): Find A Dealer
A few months ago PMW introduced
our first ever chain driven scooter, the GSR40. Since then we have also introduced
the GSR40 TS Interceptor, with enhanced features and special engine mods by Go-Ped®
Legend Trevor Simpson. We could have stopped Both models now come with
clamp-on throttle levers and relocated kill switches. The clamp-on throttle allows
the handlebar controls to be easily rotated to the user's preferred locations.
Shorter riders may want the brake and throttle flat, whereas taller riders may
want them pointed almost straight down. Now, it's up to the rider! Just loosen
the bolts, rotate the controls, and re-tighten. If you do change the factory setup,
be sure that the throttle is positioned so that it is not impeded by the brake
lever! (see photo) The standard GSR40 has another feature just introduced, an all-aluminum carrying bracket! The chain-guide-mount now serves as a solid mount for carrying your folded GSR. Our standard hook is installed on the T-bar, and hooks to the lower bracket when folded. Simple and very tough! Works with the GSR Luggage Rack too! Here's a change that affects both GSRs and Super Bigfoots: a see-through Gray Gas Tank! Now it's easy to see how much fuel you have left! Extensive development resulted in a cool new look which is just as functional as our original white tank. The new tank also bears the Go-Ped® logo! Capacity is 1.5L just like the old black tank it replaces. With all of these improvements to the big wheeled scooters, we haven't forgotten about the Sport line either. The Sport, X-ped, Super X-ped now have stronger fenders which will stand up to abuse from even the most aggressive rider. They have a new design too, which makes them easy to spot. PMW is committed to continually improving our product. Watch this space for more updates in the future. Related Link(s): Go-Ped.com: GSR40
Get your GSRs ready to race! Better
hurry, the IGPA has added a new class of racing - the 41.5 cc road race class
for Amatuers and Pros! You can modify your GSR's exhaust, carburetion, and drive
train. However, This class will utilize the Go-Quad coarse and has NO jumps. All other Go-Ped scooters will be allowed to compete in this class too. This race is going to be FAST - we recommend wearing leathers!. Stay tuned! The next IGPA Race will be announced soon - visit www.igpa.net for the details. Related Link(s): IGPA , Events , GSR40
One example of this is now all Super Bigfoots come standard with Bothy Forks. Although it is likely your average extreme Go-Ped customer will never need the additional strength of a Bothy Fork, it is the choice for Team Go-Ped while they push the limits of extreme Go-Pedding. This will not effect the price of the Super Bigfoot as PMW is always working on ways to improve their products while lowering the cost to dealers. Related Link(s): Super Bigfoot , Events

New
& Improved!
there,
but as evidence of PMW's commitment to this new model line we are adding new features
to both models.
Another
change has already been introduced on the Bigfoot and Super Bigfoot: a more durable
fender! A new material is now being used which is more flexible and resilient
than the old model. At first glance you might not be able to tell the difference,
but bend it with your hand and you'll see the improvement.
The
Rialto Go-Ped® Race "Part II" just may have surpassed the original event in terms
of great family fun, entertainment, and awesome racing! The Go-Ped® racing experience
just keeps getting better and better. A big thanks to Lorenzo Boerboom from Team
Rancho Racing and Paul Chong from MLC for their help and sponsorship
support. These dedicated teams bring polish and professionalism to Go-Ped® racing,
and set the standard for teamwork and hard work!
The
race got started early, thanks to all the great people who registered on-line.
This allowed LCQ's to take place Saturday afternoon, and the mains were finished
by 2:00 p.m. on Sunday. Trophies were distributed after each race instead of at
the end, and the Winner's Circle podium provided great photo opportunities. 
your GSR frame, engine, stock bore and stroke must remain original. 
Super
Bigfoots Now With Bothy Fork! You are most likely aware of Team Go-Ped and the
shows that they do all over the world promoting Go-Peds®. Along with this, comes
quite a bit of research and development that gets put into the off the shelf Go-Ped
products. 
Tim
Bushmen leads the Quality Control department for PMW and leads in points for expert
ski in the IJSBA (International Jet Sport Boat Association). Recently competing
against the top U.S. Expert Class riders in a week long event in Nashville Tennessee
resulting in a win for the Expert Ski Superstock National title with a perfect
100 points out of 100 points possible. Tim's slalom time was a blazing 19.5 seconds
shattering the Pro World Record set in 94' by 1.19 seconds. The title gave Kawasaki
their first expert ski title since 92' and Tim hopes that will give him the recognition
for a factory ride in 2003. Tim is now looking forward to competing at the World
Championships in Lake Havasu City, Arizona in October before making his Pro debut
next season. 
Go-Ped®
is getting props on the set of the new TV show "Scrubs"! Actor, Zack Braff, aka
"Dr. J.D. Dorian" finds his Stealth Go-Ped® a fun and useful tool, which is often
used to shuttle cast and crew around between shoots. The movie industry and network
television have been zipping along on Go-Peds® behind the scenes for many years.
Go-Peds® have even made it on the big screen as seen in "Flubber", "Sword Fish",
"LandSpeed", and many more. Thanks to Greg from Peaks Performance for the information.
