Vespa's/Scooters

[WaltonRed]

Anyone got one? I've always wanted one and now that I'm on the look out for a job I figure that i'll have the dough to get one after a little bit of saving up.

I had both Vespas and Lambrettas years ago, back when you could pick em up for a couple of quid.

 

Good fun, easy to repair (especially the Vespa) if you're handy with a span-diddley-anner (been watching The Simpsons this morning...) great on petrol and surprisingly comfy for a small bike.

 

There's a place in Wigan in one of the old mills that specialise in the older Vespas and Lambrettas, can't remember the exact address but that place was ace when I went there last year or so ago. The bloke running it even made me a cuppa and put up with my ramblings whilst I was wallking around the place in a daydream reminiscing about it all.

It might well be this place..

Yesterday my brother took me pillion on his Motorbike (500 or 600cc or something, i don't pay attention)

 

Anyway, it was awesome, scary as fuck especially as we got on the motorway from Switch Island to Kirkby and were going 117mph, we got there in like 3 minutes.

 

My point is get a motorbike, they're a lot cooler. Deadlier, but cooler

I'm thinking of getting one to park outside my house to stop other people parking like twats in the space.

 

Can anyone tell me how much I would have to pay in taxes, registration etc and would I need to have it up and running to park it on a council owned road?

Cones are cheaper.

Cones are cheaper.

 

Yeah this. Smoke a big fat cone then you won't be bothered if anyones parked outside your house.

 

Don't buy a scooter though. This ain't Quadrophenia and theres a high risk of looking like a twat.

[Mook]

Unfortunately cones are quite easy for people to just move and smoking weed turns me into a paranoid wreck so we're back to the scooter queries.

Scooter and cunts go hand in hand. A twat here at my work came in on a racing green scooter with skin tight, three quarter length washed out move jeans a pink shirt and flip flops. I was hoping the barrier would decapitate him

Pink and green? Colour blind bastard

Scrambler bikes are all the go now. Lids racing them down the street, pulling wheelies in front of the police before taking them on a wild goose chase through north Liverpool. Honestly one of the worst trends going at the moment.

Had a few near me racing around a large dog walking trail, bunch of pricks. Fortunately no dogs/kids got hurt. Need to be clotheslined off the fuckers.

Dig a hole in the road.

 

Glad to help.
