Re: cheeky seats

I've had mine on since I got the scoot last summer. It took a week or so for the wrinkles to come out. I love the cover, but find that I can still feel the "hump" mounts. It's not bad, and it actually gives me a reference point on how far back to sit, but it's definitely there. I'm toying ...

Re: New pcx owner from u.k.

What I do is to compose my reply in a text editor (e..g., Notepad in Windows or DroidEdit) and then copy/paste it in to the reply box here. That avoids the whole time-out problem.

Re: New PCX owner

It was like I was talking to an idiot.

Re: Idle Stop

"pet carrier" is the underseat storage area. Apparently at some time in the past Vespa had a warning sticker that the storage was not to be used for carrying pets (WTF? Would anybody be dumb enough to do that that they need a warning?). On the Modern Vespa forum, some sarcastic people star...
