The guys bet me I wouldn't ride my wife's scooter to work. The hard part was moving my gear from one station to another this morning. The helmet taped to the seat really killed the aerodynamics.

stupid no, silly probably. But if I could get my wife to ride anything and she chose a cute little scooter i would totally rock it around town just to look ridiculous :icon_lol: :icon_lol:.
I unfortunately can't see you picture, so I'll have to check it out when I get home.
Aside from that, my wife has a moped, and I do ride it on occassion. I feel somewhat like an ass topping out at 30mph in traffic and fighting to get up hills, but it's convenient enough for inside the city. It must not be all that bad either, because I got her GS running again, and she had no interest in it anymore. :dunno_white: Oh well, more cash into the gsxr fund for me!
Good use of duct tape.
I think scooters are actually pretty fun to ride. I wouldnt mind having one.
nope, doesn't look stupid.
now, hauling a COW on that scooter, that would look stupid. or 29 geese. ;)

Getting cow-wards, unless it's a steer.

I would think the scooter is the more ideal commuter, and the busa would be the better weekend toy, but who am I to say.
Now if you just would have rode it in your bunker gear that would have been funny as hell. Then it could be put in one of those sexy firefighter calanders hmmm sexy firefighters.
Man men in uniform turn me on :whisper: LOL thats for another thread
Mary
hey mary what about men in hazmat suits???
please tell me the cow on the back of that scooter is real! :icon_mrgreen: :woohoo:
Go travel the tropics, kiddo. You'll see things hauled on scooters you would not believe, with no possibility of photoshop involvement. I'm pretty sure both of those are real. I've seen things like it done in real life.
And to think people are worried about 2 up on a GS......lol

Is that a katana shock on there?
If it's not kat shock in there, I'm guessing that the rear fender probably doubles as a rear brake going over bumps.
It doesnt look nearly as stupid as this.

Does it look stupid? Yes.

To be honest with you, I'm not completely hating that scooter. I could go for a better paint job, but that thing just looks fun to ride, not to mention it looks about as comfortable as a recliner.
I'm curious about the fact that the body is completely laying on the ground. Do you think she actually stuck hydraulics in it to lower it instead of using a sidestand, or is it just lowered that stupidly low??
I don't know if I'd have the courage to own and ride it, but I'd definitely let her take me for rides on it.
Hmmm, hazmat suit? Gotta see pics LOL!
