Im truely suprised I didnt get ripped apart for buying a scooter.
As far as the scooter goes, its a Piaggio Vespa LX150, 150cc. Does 59mph as someone noted already, though I have already seen 60mph on the dial. This bad boy wont see the highway, just too much too worry about. They MSRP at $4199 however I received a few hundred off for the color I picked. The red, light blues and plums are the "hot" colors that go at full price. Main reason for getting this is to commute to work and just have a little fun without [knock on wood] killing myself. If all goes well and I get bored of this I can seem myself getting a Ducati Monster.
A couple friends just got scooters too so we are in the myst of becoming a scooter gang. He11s yes. Ill post a sweet pic in a bit.
