Re: Most practical scooter for food delivery?

You might want to look at the reviews and the price of the ubiquitous Kymco Agility 125.
Comes with a 2 yr fully transferable warranty.

Agility $2100
Zuma $3600

Re: Ditch the Expense of Car/Truck/SUV Ownership and . . ..

Owning nothing but 2 wheels is for the (1)young and (2)dumb, or for those with great (3)public transportation. I once did #'s 1 and 2. Then just #2. Never had #3. But if you live in Florida and never have a family buy a poncho and do it. (I've had a family since Dec 1967, 6 children and several Hond...

Mel, I don't know about the IQ of your state's cats - but I've been watching this cat cross busy Rt 68 for years without incident.

Re: Front flat tyre - only a few months old

Good job the tire didn't come off the rim edge in a corner!
If it's hard to roll or hard to turn when not yet riding - you've a flat, don't ride until you inflate with your underseat gear!

Keeping plenty safe here, "Feels like -2°F" when I woke this morning. So scoots remain in hibernation!

You might be surprised at the business this little upstairs shop does... (Toxic Beauty Records) Folks line up before sunrise to buy new releases.

Xmas Eve 'eve ride. Wise? & Cat

https://i.postimg.cc/WzK1SZXT/P1110817-3.jpg Rain and temps falling below freezing for a Christmas eve sunrise ride tomorrow ... so, I rode out this morning at 5:30AM, mid 20's with 15 mph winds. I was bundled up enough - just about comfortable most everywhere - and as I rode in the dark windy nigh...

did you get to see the christmas Star?

Sky finally cleared here so that we could see the Christmas Star in the SW sky just as predicted. This planetary conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn is pretty cool to see. We walked down to the corner and saw it over the neighbor's house. https://i.postimg.cc/QM1VpwXf/P1120945.jpg Cleaning the lights ...

Re: Best Oil to use

along the lines of "if it's slippery it'll be fine":
Rural King is having a Xmas sale on tubs of bacon fat.
Just push it in, I guess.
Think of the lovely smells at long stop lights......

Re: New Kymco scooters. What do you guys think?

I wonder why sight glasses for engine oil are very rare or non-existent in scooters. Cost more than the dipsticks? Fail more often? I actually have never seen a scooter with a sight glass. Yamaha Zuma 125 has the oil dipstick . . .. Yamaha XMax 300 has the sight glass . . .. TBH I prefer a sight gl...
