It does sound a bit tedious.. I haven't ridden a scooter in a long time..

fire240 06-21-2014 05:27 PM

It is. Most of it unbolts quickly on the Vespa. The other one takes a bit due to the fairings on it.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 05:32 PM

It sounds like a fun project though, especially if you aren't rushed..

fire240 06-21-2014 05:35 PM

Luckily he is not rushed on either one right now.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 05:48 PM

That is a plus..

fire240 06-21-2014 05:50 PM

That it is Steve. He has an older ford windstar that he uses when he cant take one of the scooters.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 05:56 PM

It sounds like he has his transportation covered..

fire240 06-21-2014 05:58 PM

That he does Steve. Figures he can use the van for when he doesnt or is not able to take the scooters whether it is because of repair work or weather.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 06:08 PM

That is why I have a wide range of vehicles..

fire240 06-21-2014 06:12 PM

I only have the truck. If that goes down for more then a day or two I have to have a rental of some kind.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 06:17 PM

I have tried to have an extra vehicle right after the wife's car broke and she drove my truck and put a scratch down the side of it.. Luckily it was that plastic molding that took the hit..

fire240 06-21-2014 06:18 PM

Thats good Steve. For me I havent been able to afford or park a second vehicle.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 06:25 PM

My Miata cost me $23 a month for insurance..

fire240 06-21-2014 06:27 PM

Truck runs me just shy of 600 every 6 months for insurance. Add to that the payment for teh truck, plus a few other small bills I have and then a lack of available parking near my house being the biggest issue for me to not have a second vehicle.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 06:29 PM

I have an entire 140+ foot driveway to park stuff in..

fire240 06-21-2014 06:32 PM

i'm not that lucky Steve. I have street parking. To park in my yard means tearing up the grass in the front yard.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 06:37 PM

I would have a 2 car garage if I cleaned it out..

fire240 06-21-2014 06:47 PM

I dont even have a one car garage. The one shed we have could be used as a garage but we cant really get any vehicles past the house into the backyard. A Jeep Cherokee is the largest vehicle we can get past the house without taking a set of steps and a fence out.

Steve GG 06-21-2014 06:53 PM

Well Shaun, I need to fix me some dinner.. Catch up with you later..

fire240 06-21-2014 06:55 PM

Catch you later Steve. I need to pop over and eat some chow myself.

Steve GG 06-23-2014 10:38 PM

Sparky83 06-23-2014 10:44 PM

no worries... theyve been saying 7.9.. and 8.0 as well.. they cant seem to make up their mind...

Steve GG 06-23-2014 10:47 PM

I looked it up on the Web..

fire240 06-24-2014 03:03 PM
