Maui scoot'en
Rented a Blur and this video reminds me of an ensure commercial where the guy is happy to just be spinning on the mechanical bull Enjoy!
crappy sound but the pictures are motivational enough if you ever get to Maui... look up 'rent a piece' scooter rentals

How does the Blur compare to the PCX? I know they are different categories but--don't let that hold you back.

After running the tank dry on a solo scoot mountain style (no gas stations up there) one gets hungry enough to eat a Pig. 250 pounds of saturated fat... if the mountains wouldn't kill me the BBQ would still I might have to retire to this place.

Homie, looks like you were riding the north shore of West Maui. One of my favorite rides. As you drive through the village of Kahakuloa, stop by Julia's banana bread shack, the banana bread is outrageous.

Re: Maui scoot'en
Thanks! Going back next year same time and rent a bigger bike with more fuel to make it all the way around unless Julie sells gasoline and if you are resident of Maui we can have some banana bread together because I would like to learn more about your people and neighborhoods.SBMAUI wrote:Homie, looks like you were riding the north shore of West Maui.

Homie, I'd be happy to meet with you on your return visit. I've lived here full time now for 14+ years. I only wish I moved here sooner.

Re: Maui scoot'en
The Blur is all wrong, but it will run 75 mph off the lot if they had anymore to sell. To my understanding its been discontinued. I get why... the Genuine Blur probably has little in common quality wise against PCX but certainly lacks sex appeal compared to the Precious.flyingzonker wrote:How does the Blur compare to the PCX?

Now here was something only the Vietnamese would find time to do. The seat didn't seem practical but the rest of it might have held up pretty good Don't know why its in a strip mall in Maui but I had to take a picture.

Re: Maui scoot'en
Did homie make an offer to buy it?
That's really cool, but the basket seat has gotta go! Embarrassing after the work Mr. Binh put into the rest of the bike. Could it be that someone sat on it and broke its original seat that He made? Then, I don't blame "whoever" "whomever" for flipping a rough looking basket on it. Ouch!
Did you see a "Keep Arse Off sign?"

I have never wanted to go to Hawaii before (too many vacationers), but now that I have seen those pics, count me in. It would be worth it just for the ride. Hawaii '17 it is!you you wrote:Gang visit to Hawaii next year!!you you wrote:Then home and whitenoise have to go to Europe

Re: Maui scoot'en
It was incredibly beautiful and from Kaanapali you were in those mountain roads in five minutes. For as far until your tank reads half full which took me to Kahakuloa. I probably could have made to to Waihee but who knows if there was fuel there, plus you want to ride the high side back anyway because your pants are already wet Little shower now and then along the way but not my scooter... so who cares!kramnala58 wrote: I have never wanted to go to Hawaii before (too many vacationers), but now that I have seen those pics, count me in.

Re: Maui scoot'en
It is certainly beautiful in Hawaii, so I'm told, but bone-crushingly expensive to live there. As for amenities and the availability of consumer goods, I would imagine is in the same category as Australia--pretty sparse by mainland USA standards.
