Or has the gas price situation come to this?

Well, they collect them in Milwaukee. A friends brother as about a dozen of them. But the guys pretty weird, so that may explain it.

A guy here that owns a Japanese repair shop collects the old ones as well as single cylinder bikes from the sixties & seventies

You can't condemn the bad if you don't commend the good

ANy 60's and 70's moped and trail bikes and other japanese bikes have HUGE followings everywhere I've gone.

Picked up a 1970 Trail 70, form a guy. freeed up the rings and cleaned out the fuel tank and sold it for $300 bucks only partially there....

Vespa's were the Hippies Harley's and back in the late 70's where I grew up in Washington, there were Vespa Gangs that NOBODY would screw with... Today they're trying to get back into their flower child like youth that they remember from their parents...

That's my take on it anyway....

I had a few left over scooters when we sold our motorcycle shop and there were a few different guys wanting to buy them!

I presonally would go for a scooter such as this one.

Now THAT'S my idea of a scooter!
