that sounds like a lot of fun and a good idea I'll keep it in mind.I thought about a poker run (hope you all know what a poker run is)but to put on a run takes a lot of people and a lot of time I like your idea a lot better.almost wish I was over there to see how it all works thanks again for the tip .later scoot, richardv, Guitarman |

Happy Birthday to you to ,mine falls on Thanksgiving this year so I guess I'm just a old turkey ha ha.and when I signed up for this site i wasn't real sure about giving up personal info, so I lied, but now I'm o.k. with it, so I'm really 63 years old and will be 64 on the 27th so were closer in age than I let on, hope no one was offended.I was born in 1950 so I guess I'm on old fart.ha ha. scoot, richardv |

Does anyone know if wider tires are available for the 150cc scooters? I now run 130 x 13 on the front and rear but think it would be cool to have a wider one on the rear (just a old hot rodder dreaming out loud) my scooter is a long case w/rear disc brakes.if that helps,if one of you knows a supplier please let me know.thanks

Thanks for the info,the post office idea sounds like a good alternative (since I don't deal drugs and have a scale that weights in grams) ha ha. scoot, Alleyoop, Bashan |

WOW no one in the east bay i.e.San Francisco bay area rides scooters? what the f#%!, and none of you who ride scooters want to meet like minded people and ride scooters, and have some fun.come on people according to this site there are more scooter riders in california than any other state.if I can't fine a scooter club to join, maybe I'll just have to start one myself. so if your interested PLEASE let me know or are you all brain dead.sorry didn't really mean that but come on lets have some FUN.
