Hello from Dallas Georgia!

Hello scooter peoples!

Tomorrow I pick up my new scooter. I got a fire engine red Aprilia Scarabeo 200, and the dealer is installing a GiVi e470 top box with a color matching cover. It has been over 25 years since I have been on a motorized bike. I rode a Kawasaki 400 street bike for about 10 years.

I'm excited about the ride home tomorrow. The dealer is about 40 miles from here, and I'm looking forward to trying to remember how to ride.

Well, I drove it home, and didn't fall over even once! I was a little unsure of myself when I pulled out on the road for the first time in 25+ years, but after a few miles, it all came back to me. The next step is getting a motorcycle endorsement on my license, so off to the DMV tomorrow morning.
