Hi! I'm about to get my first scooter. I've been lurking in the forum as I shopped around town. I've decided to go with a Diamo Turista 300. I can get it from a reputable shop that can service it. Hope to be running on two wheels soon.

If all goes well I pick up my scoot tomorrow. Just in time. I was helmet shopping during lunch today when my car broke down. So right now I'm vehicle-less. Hopefully I'll get my car back tomorrow and then pick up my new scoot.

Howdy jackrock, I am in Anderson County, not far from Palestine. If you need a ride and I am fairly close to you I might be able to help.

I'm new so I didn't have a scooter, until today. I went by and picked up my poor car that broke down on me yesterday. It's running again. Took it straight home and then had a friend give me a lift to the cycle shop. I just picked up my scooter this afternoon. It felt great riding it home from the shop. It's a Diamo Turista 300. Not too much time to try it out today but I plan to next week. I took it up to 50 briefly and it handled well. I still need a helmet (borrowed one to get the scoot home) so I'll be shopping around to see if I can find the one I want (hoping to get a yellow modular helmet). I'll be hanging out here in the forum to soak up all the knowledge and expertise and maybe just to chat.
