Scooter Time!

I think that shocked me more than the accident. No one moved to help… or do anything. If that was here, the other guys on the scooters would have been off of them seeing if anything could be done.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they do. Small engines don’t have the same emissions requirement as cars. I have chainsaw that is responsible for most of the global warming in the northeast US. True story.

Harley Davidson makes a great scoot.

Tweety,

I drove a scooter in Italy this summer when I went to visit my grandmother. It was a fucking amazing time. Fuck the haters. If you can pull off a scooter with no shirt on, the girls will eat that shit up.

Here’s me (shirt on, sorry) on my borrowed '86 vespa:

Also, they pollute a lot for something that should only carry one person. [/quote]

I like the noise the guy makes in the last one.

Is that Asian laughter or Asian shock?

I’m betting the former.[/quote]

HAHAHAHAHA, that noise he made is hilarious when you point it out.[/quote]

It really does sound like he giggled like a schoolgirl when the guy got creamed.

Samir,

I plan not to wear my shirt for most of the time I ride my scooter.
Ive been to Europe a handful of times, and there isnt anything hotter than a chick in a short skirt riding on the back of a scooter.

FIXED.

This fits here.

Thanks florelius. I enjoyed that video.

It had everything; football, scooters and a funky beat.

I think driving a scooter in the outback is likely to get you decked for being a poofter.

Get a motorbike and man the fuck up.

scooters are like fat women…

fun to ride but you just don’t wanna be seen on one!

Hi friends,

Im most probably moving to a small country town, and so I was considering purchasing a scooter to get around with, as everything will be local, and I wont be travelling much on major highways.

Was wondering if anyone has any tips/advice/ideas on purchasing a scooter?

tweet[/quote]

Can’t help you with any advice.

All I know about scooters is I hear they’re fun to ride but you wouldn’t want your friends to see you riding one.

Vespa.

I like the Vespa’s, but they are very expensive… almost double the price.

I think Im going to look at the Hondas and Yamahas. Apparently one must keep away from chinese made scooters.

Nah…Chinese scooters are likely fine, it’s just that they get a bad name because of who rides them.

So, why a scooter over a motorbike? I’ve always been curious why, outside of being a mod or skinhead, one would make that choice.

Well, because Im not going to be travelling long distances on the scooter. I will be only using it to go to work(5 minutes away), the gym(6 minutes) and to soccer training(10 minutes).

And they are easy to ride and easy to park etc.
