Haters gon' hate, always. to them~. -Raven Fuel economy at last fill-up came in at almost 50 MPG which is better than what my Lance Vintage 150 got on long runs at over 45 mph so I can deal with the comments. A set of 4 tires costs about the same as a set of 2 of the not so common sized ones for my Aprilia so that's a positive also. Once I get tires, paint and a new top on it along with a lifetime alignment I will probably have about $2,500 invested including the purchase price so not a bad deal. Not perfect but it starts reliably and is low tech enough to keep running with shade tree mechanics. Just good enough to be a daily driver or rally car if I desire. Might ever put a hitch on it to transport the bike on a small Harbor Freight trailer or pull a small mini camper with a rack for the scooter on it. Plus is that it is working piece of Italian Sculpture like your Vespa and my Aprilia, Enjoy!
