I know the skywave at the bottom is fugging nippy 0-60 in under seven seconds and over 100mph top speed. Which is pretty mad when your legs are in front of you.
Not for me methinks.
That top one is uber cool though.

Which is pretty mad when your legs are in front of you. Do you drive laying on your front then lol? Pedals behind you? Like the first one, it will be wire wheels and airbags next lol |

Like the first one, it will be wire wheels and airbags next lol You know what i mean, cheeky mare  When on a bike at triple speeds it would be nice to have the place where your legs go behind you, as per bikes. |

I kept talking about slamming my ET4 Vespa but every time I went near it with the grinder and filler that niggling killing the handling/resale value/grief to put it back when I sell it thing kept hitting me. I've got no plans to keep the bike so I just can't do it. The scooter modding scene in this country seems to be non-existant with young riders  No matters because I have a Honday CB125 coming my way in a few months so I'll hack that about a bit and get my two wheel fix that way. |

Yeah but not the new ones and it's not young folks that are doing it. All I see are paint jobs, nothing wild.

Here are some of my fave non-Lambretta-or-Vespa scooters...  Custom Italjet Dragster  NOT a Dragster, but monster-cool T'n'G featured beastie!  OK so it's another Italjet. I like 'em....  Just one Vespa then.  Honda Freeway - The earlier version is super-retro:-  Yeah, I need one! And some from The "ScooterScoop" blog - well worth a look!       Note the "Mr Horsepower" logo on this Honda Joker. OK they're mostly NOT UK scoots but there's potential everywhere. Problem is that Dragsters & Formulas, Yamaha T-Maxes, Suzuki Burgmans / Epicuros, and even Sym Joyrides etc are pretty expensive to buy over here.... |

Where is DP? Isn't that one of his (and him?) in the post above? I don't know much about scooters, but these look interesting...I hope they're not the jacked up Camaros of the scooter world!:   What on earth?  |
