Many years ago I was going to buy a Vespa. However, they were pretty expensive running $5-$10 thousand. Then one day I saw a guy on one and said to my self "thank god I didn't get one, that guy looks ridiculous". I guess I'm vain. I still wouldn't mind having one (for my sister).

I bought this instead: (actually, both of these)

Scooters and fat girls...both fun to ride, but you wouldn't want your friends to see you on one.

You get just as effed up crashing a scooter as a motorcycle and for some reason every single person I see on a scooter has zero protective gear on.

I think it looks like a girls scooter, this isn't the 60's in the UK.

scooters can be fun, but no thanks. the tiny diameter tires are a nightmare around bumpy corners..and it feel really odd riding with my feet together like that. probably very handy to keep your skirt from blowing up and showing the world your "hay-nanu-nanu"

.

O.k., its actually pretty cool. Scooters are a blast in the right place. A few weekends in Key west, or if I lived in a downtown setting, Id be all over one . I used to haul mine on vacation with me, and would buzz all over the place looking like dumb and dumber .
Live to ride, ride to live !

GF bought a Honda PCX150 scooter. She works in town so the appeal of free parking and (very!!!) low fuel costs made it a good idea. Typical Honda reliability and build quality.

I’ve got a 1980 Vespa P100 sport that I probably ride around town more than any of my other motorcycles. It’s just fun. Two-stroke and kickstart.

I've looked at them before and came close to buying one on CL but ultimately decided I didn't really have the room right now for another bike.

I was looking at the vintage Honda Helix's - those are pretty cool and modernistic looking.

I see those around here from time to time. There seem to be endless mods available.
