I have a scooter 250 cc I love to ride it! I am 60 and I guess I am still a wild child LOL. ( my kids shutter). I got a 125 first and dang near killed myself. The steering is not the same as a bigger scooter, in my opinion. I dumped it, it jack knifed really easily. I fell on my right arm, broke it cracked a rib and nobody around. So, I picked it up, drove myself home got my truck and took myself to the hospital. ( I don't know why my kids think I am a rebel lol.
I am going to figure something out where I can put it on the motor Home,not sure where, maybe getnone of those things that go into your trailer hitch.

We have a 3/4 ton pick-up but we have a cover on the bed. I think the weight of the scooter is too much for a carrier on the front of the truck. Do you take your vespa with you and if so how?

I have a van so the plan is to get a ramp and put it in the back. I'll remove the rear most seat and use a Canyon Dancer Bar-Harness with tie down straps from the harness to the posts used for the seat that I've removed. If all goes right it should ride back there pretty well. We bought Patty a Buddy 150. My son is somewhat shocked and worried that his parents are now part of the scooter crowd.

We did some scooter talk over at this thread. http://www.airforums.com/forums/f161...cle-41606.html

You might want to jump over there if you want to talk about this a little more. I'd like to keep this one on topic. Thanks!

We send the decals out in groups every 60 days or so. I'm currently addressing envelopes that cover through early Feb 3. Once I drop them in the mail, I'll post that fact and the dates of the contributions that this mailing covers. I haven't checked your contribution date but if you made the cut at or around Feb 3rd., you are in this next mailing. If all goes well those will be out by Sunday.

Can't wait to get my sticker...Is there a charge for an additional sticker?

Johnco · 03-03-2009, 09:16 PM

I'm pretty sure I joined by at least early December and have not yet received my stickers. I'm anxious to show my colors, when can I expect delivery?

Dieselgrin · 03-05-2009, 08:20 PM

Well, what do you know? My stickers cam in today. Thanks. What else was suppose to happen?

**jcanavera** · 03-06-2009, 10:50 AM

Decals should have arrived or be arriving to those of you who joined in the December through Feb 3 time frame. Even though they go out first class with typed mailing labels, it always surprises me on how long the transit times are for various parts of the country. And if your address has changed and the post office doesn't forward, it sometimes takes as much as 30 days before the mailing is returned to me.....

At this point we are in the process of ordering some additional supply so that we can cover our next mailings.
