[QUOTE=Tri Girl;257598]Too cool! You look like you belong on that cute little scooter! Is it fun to drive???[/QUOTEYou know it was a little odd at first and I have to take corners a bit different then on my bike. After about 5 minutes it was a piece of cake to drive. Fun to be honest! I am super happy about getting it. As much as when i got my first really nice bike! As a matter of fact I gotta go for a road bike ride tomorrow before there is fighting between the two!:D And then maybe I will scoot over to the coffee shop after. Hmmmm? So many different things I could do.

Scarf? I thought your long blonde hair just got really tangled from riding 100mph on your gorgeous scooter. ;)

Excellent! What a great looking scooter. Looks like it is a little warmer where you are - DH drove ours to his office this morning, and it was 32F when he left :eek: . I went out this afternoon, and it was about 53F - plenty chilly enough for a winter coat, wool socks, gloves...
Enjoy - I know I am having fun!

Nice! The Vino, right?? I had a Vespa LX 150 til about a week ago :rolleyes: (Now my father in law has it and I have a motorcycle.)
The scooter is SO convenient. You just push the button and go - off to the store, off to wherever! Have a great time with it!!

Oh my gosh i am laughing right now. You have already looked into the price of them? That is funny. We found mine on Craig's list. It was ment to be I think. When we first called they seemed to have another buyer from out of state. It was a scam. They send you a $5,000.00 cashiers check (it's fake) and say they are giving you extra + shipping + money to take it off the craig's list. You ship the bike off and think you have all this extra money. Till the bank tells you 30 days later that it's a fruad. They reported it cause it didn't feel right and sure enough they were told not to do it. That is when they called us back and asked if we were still interested. And lucky me!
I wake up in the morning trying to think of where i could go first. I have to ride my road bike today though first.
I don't want to end up with a pair of saddle bags!lol.

before everyone goes out and buys a scooter, pleeeeeeeeease do your research and avoid buying one with a two-stroke engine. they produce HUGE emissions!

So what should we look for instead of a "two stroke" engine?

The 49cc scooter we're looking at is a 4-stroke. The 2-strokes would be very very low end.

A SUPER Scoot (http://powersports.honda.com/scooters/model.asp?ModelName=Silver+Wing+ABS&ModelYear=2008&ModelId=FSC600A8)! Ohhhh...if only!
Cute scoot, Brandi.
Ride it safely and have fun!

I think both the Vino and Metropolitan are 4 stroke now. (one of 'em used to be 2-stroke, was it the Metro?)
Anyway, yeah, no 2-strokes with the oil that mixes with the gas and gets blown joyfully out the tailpipe to add extra goobers to the atmosphere. "The lungs you save may be your own..."
