  1. My wife and I planned on going but bailed, weather looked to crappy.
  2. Those are damn good pics from a camera phone. Nice.
  3. Have you checked "Batteries Plus"? I just did a search on their website and they have that battery but did not list the price online.
  4. Wanted to let you guys know about this place. I ordered a GIVI TB19 backrest for my scooter from them. Ordered it online on Saturday and had it in hand and installed by Wednesday evening! That kind of turnaround from an online shop is fantastic! Twisted Throttle LLC http://twistedthrottle.com Email: info@twistedthrottle.com Phone: 401-284-4200
  5. Maybe your friends just funny looking
  6. Thanks. Thats what I'm talkin about The only "real" reason any of your 600 sport bikes would take my 600 scooter is that they are a hell of a lot lighter (150+ lbs lighter) and designed for speed. The scooter is not exactly designed for rocket speeds even though I can easily hit triple digits!
  7. It is a 600 (technically, 582cc) it moves.
  8. Yeah, I just got back a little while ago from LEGALLY riding my scooter. Make all the jokes you want about it being a scooter, no matter, cause my SCOOTER is just as fast, and FASTER than some of the bikes here.... 600cc's is still 600cc's no matter if theres a clutch or not buddy!
  9. What the hell. I stopped up at the Shell @ 11:15 and there was no one there. I wasn't planin on ridin with ya guys but thought I'd meet a few of you and say hi, oh well. Maybe I was at the wrong one: I was at the one over by the BP and Steak and Shake just East of 71 on Polaris. Oh shit, I just reread the message I quoted, I WAS at the wrong one!
  10. EXACTLY! He should have never opened his mouth, cause when he did, he stuck his foot so far in it its probably pokin out his lawbreakin ass! When I had my temps, I followed ALL the restrictions to a tee until I got my full license. There is no excuse for his actions, and no one on this board will ever respect him now that hes "outed" himself and a bad cop, if he even trully is a cop. Where does it end? Break the law a little here, a little there, afterall I'm a cop, "who's gonna send me to jail", pathetic.
  11. Bret, Fonzie is right, you need an option like he said, it is NOT required in Ohio to pass any kind of safety course to get your license, all that is required is that you pass the written temp test @ the BMV and a simple 10min manuverability course at the BMV, well I thought it was simple. So, I'm a # 5... 5.) Fully licencesed, but no motorcycle safety course.
  12. My wife has back problems (she rides with me alot) so the smooth ride of the CVT transmission benefits her (no gears, no clutch, no shifting). Its a fairly heavy bike, 500lbs, so it's selling point is not gas mileage but comfort instead. One of these days I'll hook up with you guys on a ride, when you see what it'll do you'll never look at a scooter the same again! http://s175.photobucket.com/albums/w139/davidjrosso/Scooter/Honda-SilverWingSpecs.jpg
  13. Story doesn't mention anything about whether or not he was wearing a helmet, just wondered.
  14. Yep, look at this, Worthington cop, pulled over for red tinted plate covers on my Mazda, luckily it was only a warning....
  15. My scoot gets somewhere between 50-55mpg, holds 4.2gal and I usually refill when I get close to 200miles on the tankful
  16. She doesn't currently ride; she does however think she wants her own scooter, but she really just wants one because I have one, not necessarily cause she wants to ride. She likes to have whatever I have, we are both kinda that way but she is not real observant or aware of her surrondings enough to be riding, plus shes pretty damn clumsy, she'd probably kill herself the first week is she got something
  17. Hey Bret, nice meeting you last night. We had a good time there. Actually saw four other scooters there besides mine, saw a white Vespa, red Honda Helix, silver Burgman400 and of course that hideous MP3 three wheeled thing! I took a few pics, here is a link to them... http://tinyurl.com/6lo7as
  18. Damn, you did just say that, anyway, my wife and I will be there on my Silverwing. Should be a good night, hopefully a little warmer then tonight.

    las Vegas

    My wife and I went there for our first time this past December, it was a fricken blast. We stayed at the Excalibur which was real nice and the placement of it on the strip was ideal, right across from MGM, Tropicanna and New York New York. We liked the Hooters casino alot, we had dinner there and played slots for a couple hours there. It sets off the stip behind the Tropicanna. A really helpful website is... http://www.visitlasvegas.com If you have myspace access you can check out a 100+ pictures from our trip in the pics section of my myspace page.... http://www.myspace.com/davidrosso Have fun, I'm jealous as I'd love to go back already.
  20. Thanks. I've only been riding since last August but I really enjoy it, I wasn't fully licensed until late in the year so I'm very anxious for the nice weather to settle in so I can do some actual riding outside of the immediate area!
  21. That is does. I'm anxious for some really nice weather so I can take it somewhere remote and actually find out what it'll top out at. Thats the damn first question people ask when you tell them you have a scooter.
