I thought the rest of you scooter guys might enjoy these. ;D I did a track day with some of the local Motard guys and had a blast. Here's a couple of shots. Here's me all suited up. I had just bought a set of Michelin Boppers that day and went out in a parking lot and scrubbed them in. Here's the Zuma all prepped up. btw, BBZ stands for Blackbirdzach. My custom Speedometer. ahahaah

Here's a few more from the track. ;D I wish I could have snapped a pic of the way I had to position my feet so that I could lean off and drag knee. hahaha. My right foot is jammed forward and my left is pressed against it, but laying on it side. Took me a while to figure out how to do it. Here's a blurry knee down shot comign out of turn 1. More turn 1

And then it happened. ahhahah. I got too far over and the rear end went out from under me. Broke a few things on the scooter, but I was unhurt. Wreching away Despite the broke rear brake lever a buddy of mine wanted to take it out too. Good times. If you ever get the chance to go, I HIGHLY reccomend it.

Man!
I'm sooooo jealous! That would be a real blast.
I'm kind of curious why you went with the Zuma instead of a cheaper machine like a Vento or something? It seems like a bit of a shame to bang up something so expensive. Although, I'm sure it's a blast so who really cares!
Keep the pics coming, I'm lovin' them!

Zuma is a nice ride. Thanks for posting the pics Zach. You have inspired me to take more pics on my adventures. I ride sometimes with a couple different scooter clubs. Here is a pic of a ride from last year with the Vespa Club. They are very gracious to allow me to ride with them and never make fun of my Chinese scooters. We are riding tonight to a monthly party type thing in the old art district near downtown. Artists show off their work and serve free wine to attract visitors. I don't go for the art.

That looks like fun Lee. I wish we had more scooter riders around here. I'm thinking about dissapearing up to the mountains for a day next week.
