Well, on the day that we're happily scootin' along in between the rows of cars and trucks lined up on the sides of the road because they're out of gas, we'll look like geniuses, won't we?
What will they say then?

I would love that, if only I could afford to buy it! I love Hondas anyway. I'm going to watch this one, so keep us updated.

Far too many people are hurting, far too badly. Unfortunately, most people don't think of scooters as transportation, they think of them as adult toys. That may change eventually, but until it does these kinds of problems are going to happen. I'm sorry to hear it.

Beautiful bike, but blue is depressing. (Sorry, I didn't make up the science on this.) If I had my way it would be beautiful, sunny yellow! The energy color!

I had to stick my tongue out. It's sort of a family tradition.
I have a gremlin bell now, so the gremlins had better watch out!

Well my better half (back when I had one) burned down the garage, so the living room is elected!

I just posed for some pictures in my living room to satisfy some demands for pictures of me on my scooter. I thought some of you would be interested in seeing them:    That's it! |

I think you take a great pic Denise but take some advice wear as much coverage as possible when riding, your body is exposed to the elements and I and anyone could agree anything to cover yourself from getting badly cut or scratch and even a broken bone. A good pair of jeans, your jacket and a good pair of shoes along with the most important a helmet is the safest thing you can do for yourself and anyone around you. Btw Congrads and happy riding!! Well, I've got it all right here, but until the weather gets colder I have no choice--- the jacket is too hot. I can't get overheated like that because of health problems. I do have a mesh jacket planned before spring. I am well aware of how much road rash hurts... |

She is purring like a kitten at a steady 1200 rpm. Teachers think alike so I'm with ccprof on this one ...practise, practise practise, makes perfect. Good one Denise and don't worry about the size you look marvelous babe. PS footnote, yellow and orange don't go so better get yourself a bikers jacket to complete the look lol. Thanks! I hate seeing pictures of myself. I have no trouble with mirrors, but the camera hates me. I do have a motorcycle jacket-- black in fact. I put it on and rode for about 10 miles and then was literally dripping sweat. My clothes were soaked! The jacket is going to have to wait for cold weather. By next spring I need to get a mesh jacket. Oh yeah! Give me the chance and I'll practice until the wheels fall off! I haven't been out of my house by myself in 15 years! |

Hey Denise do not down yourself your learnin and I'm learning my scoot is only a few weeks old and I already have prob's with it but that is how you learn. I'm sure you did your homework and looked everything over just the same as I did. I know each scoot is different but all in the same is its a learning and who know's someday you'll have enough of knowledge to help someone. Your also like me I for years only able to get out and just goto dialysis and home and now I have a scoot I can get out more so hang in there sweet pea things work out in the end:) Thanks for the encouragement. I got myself some pizza (because I couldn't go out and get something to eat) and I'm going to work on my scooter tomorrow some more. Heck with homework. |

Yes, I did do a PDI, but I didn't do as thorough a job as I should have (embarrassing for someone like me). I can learn all that I need to learn, and I know it well. I'm just being impatient because I've been cooped up in this house for 15 years, unable to leave without getting someone to take me. The one thing I have yet to buy is the new fuel and vacuum lines. I should also get a new fuse. I have everything else. I'm going to order myself some pizza to console myself for not getting my celebration lunch at Long John Silver's (a dream of mine, since I rarely get to go there!). And then I'm going to go over my bike again.

As a matter of fact, I did find a pinched vacuum line. It isn't pinched anymore. Still won't start, but that could be because I'm mad and frustrated. In a few hours I won't be able to ride because I can't ride after dark (permit, not license).
