Any Motorcyclists/Scooterists Out There

Post by Steve Hoffert »

I just wondered if there are any Observers that are really into their two wheeled motorized machines. I don't care if you ride a scooter or a 2.3 liter Triumph as long as you love to ride and are not just a poser. Well?

I wish.

I've been trying to convince my husband for the last few years that I need a Vespa, but he worries about my safety and the fact that besides being something for me to ride around on by myself it wouldn't really suit the needs of the family, damn practicality.

Sure Ruthie..but mine does not have clutch...so I'm not the best one to teach you. I love mine...I don't think I have used my care but 4 times in the last couple of months..just to going to the grocery. Since I do my Leaf thing for veggies..I only need a few things. I already have 300 miles on it in a couple of months just riding round Lakewood.

Does this include a 2007 model year Schwinn Cruiser to which I attached a motor to? It is in the shop (my garage) now for a slight chain problem however with any luck it will be back on the road soon!!

I'm not an elitist! Anything with two or three wheels and a motor belching earth warming emissions is ok by me. What type of motor is it?

Use Amsoil synthetic two stroke oil. It smokes quite a bit less and doesn't smell as badly. If you want to try some I'll give you enough to do a few gallons.
