MY NEW SCOOTER in Florence... already ordered... yesterday after one test!!!..it is incredible..To test it "right" I tried to "almost" to crash it and I ended with a slide like a supermoto... on all the three wheels!!!
It is a superb "kindaofbike" that will take me nicely and daily to work with my briefcase, suit and tie. It has a screen that cover you totally in case of rain..on the wet the front is planted as on rails..30% more braking capabilities of any scooter.. 250cc.. decent engine for almost 90miles per hour top speed.
The first ones are going to be delivered in a couple of weeks..mine (all black..) in three or four.
Only problem..I can't wheel it!!

mate, the rain won't go back to Italy with you, I guess you'll leave it to us here ;)

I'd love to try that scooter... brilliant Italian creativity (but I still do hate Materazzi :lol: )

I know we met and spoke briefly, but you did help me and my son go to Mugello and I'll be grateful for a long time.
I hope to see you maybe next year at Mugello for the Moto GP.
Cheers Fabio.

Regards Oliver & Jeff st4s

:-)........

....two wheels is better than one........???

In Italy we used to have "three wheels kinda of bikes" or "ape".. the news here is that two wheels are in front..not in the back!!!!
