You won't regret it, more than 2 cylinders is a waste
And you got the best colour as well

hello and welcome
The best tip I can give is don't get a yellow one as they are slow and flys love them .
Best of luck on the ride back and keep an eye on the speedo as they are faster than you think even yellows lol
