Also, you aren’t entirely wrong. All new Vespas sold here stateside are now CVT.

Thanks!

During the period of time you are renting the bike?

I’m sorry to hear that. Unfortunately there is nothing easy about body parts for that bike, and being our neighbor to the north just makes it that much harder. Those bikes were made by ADLY in Taiwan I think, so your best bet is probably these guys: http://www.adlyparts.com/

Haha, yes. Those little bikes can fly given the opportunity.

They are silly fun to ride, even unmodded.

It’s a Vespa. The Stellas are actually Indian copies (sort of, LML was a Vespa contractor, it’s a story) of the PX Vespas made by LML and imported by Genine. This looks to be a small frame Vespa 50 Special. With mods and a quality build that bike could easily be clutched up. I bet he’s got thousands tied up in the top…

Nice mods to a 50cc.

This is more likely correct. Also, when ripping on a highly modded 2t engine like that it pays to keep a finger on the clutch in case of engine seizure. You usually can feel it right before it happens, and a quick pull can save your engine and your ass... sometimes.

It’s not. That bike is a 4 speed with a clutch, shifter on the handlebar.

Okey dokey... Well not all Vespas. The second bike is a KYMCO, the third bike is a Chinese GY6, and the 4th picture is what happens to the 3rd picture when you spray waaayyyy too much into a bike with the timing not retarded enough. We wanted to run against larger bikes since we were having a good day, but ran out of…

The even more fun thing to consider is that the white bike that he’s having so much fun on is a smallframe 50cc probably displacing 100cc after modification... or somewhere in that range anyway.

Modded scooters? Literally how I make a living.

This makes me feel better. I love cars, sports cars, hypercars, whatever... but I never could get into the whole Veyron thing, and the new Bugatti? I couldn’t care less for some reason. Those cars just don’t speak to me at all.

We aren’t seeing enough content overall to support industry rags either (RIP Dealernews...). Seems like lack of content may be a fundamental issue for the industry as a whole, not just on the consumer focused side of things.

Mmmmm.... FJ.

This is so true. I was using a 6P, walked into a T-Mobile store for my company, got sidetracked and walked out with a Blackberry Priv which frankly as an old fan of BBOS 10 I was expecting to hate, gave the 6P to my girlfriend who needed a phone and we both couldn’t be happier.

Yep.

It’s no secret with Delta. Fly enough that you can at least get Silver Medallion status, and then from your computer or the Fly Delta App, hit the button that puts you on the upgrade list when it becomes available for you on your flight (varies by medallion status). If there’s a seat, and your priority is good for…

This is probably much more accurate.
