Participantatr – I can’t even tell you how much fun it is. I put a little basket on the back of my bike and use it when I go grocery shopping, too. Sure hurts a lot less at the pump.
If anyone decides to get a Vespa – warning and caution: do NOT buy one of those Vietnamese Vespas. There were a bunch of Vespas shipped to Vietnam literally in pieces (sawed in half) There’s many being sold on Ebay. These bikes look GREAT. In fact, the paint job is the best and only thing about them (no laws on lead-based paint there) They hack-job welded the bikes together and used parts from different models and used weird tools we don’t have here to assemble them.
I hear horror stories of people spending 3k and have the bike break on them. Motorsport, the scooter store in North Park, refuses to work on the Vietnamese bikes. You will end up having to buy a new motor, 2k at least, to get it running again.
Anyone thinking of buying an older Vespa, there’s many websites out there that describe in detail what to look out for.

Participantjp–are they hard to balance on? My husband was a motorcycle rider for years, until he was in an accident in 2006. (he was okay, his bike. . . not so much!) I have always been a little bit of a chicken, but that made me even more so! Do you just ride on main streets and avoid the freeway? I know they have versions that go faster than others.
That striped special edition version they came out with a few years ago was sooooo cute!
