... Museum. Five stories filled with motorcycles. It's amazing. ... ~~~This past May I rode my KLR up from north central Fla. to Birmingham to meet up with a...
I spent four hours in there and had to skip the latter half of the '80s and all of the '90s bikes to get through it. There are scooters. Not many, but some. I...
Hello to all, I will possibly purchase a 2005 Stella. I currently own a Kymco people 250. My question is , that I have to ride this bike home about 50 miles ...
Hello All, I'm going to need to replace my clutch on my Fireball this winter and was wondering how difficult it is to do and what type of clutch it is. I was...
Ed, My experience is that two stroke scooters are not great highway bikes in stock form unless you are very light or run a P200. That isn't to say that the...
Tony, You should only need plates and springs. The Fireballs (2005+ Stellas) use the bigger clutches,so it's similar to a cosa in size if I remember...
Personally, I would not feel comfortable riding my Stella for 40 or 50 miles on the highway. That is just not what it's made for. You'd be pushing the...
Thanks for your replys. I only will ride it on the highway to take the bike home. I have my Kymco 250 for constent highway use. I just need to know if the bike...
OH! Well sure, if it's just a one-time thing, it should probably be fine. Just make sure it's not a windy day!!! We had a group scooter ride last weekend and...
It was windy. The being blown around wasn't so bad, it was the headwind that at times only allowed me to hit 45 that sucked. P.S. Hill City United had a blast...
I think you will be OK. I have ridden my '05 bone stock Stella on the highway, traveling 60-65 miles one way, on numerous occasions. It ain't a speed...
Ed, Be sure to post your notes of your trip. I'm with the school of thought that 50 miles on the freeway would be a little scary. That's what your kymco's...
It can be done... Every year on the way home from our local rally, we ride about 60 miles on the Interstate and a 2 lane highway. The biggest problem for me...
Exactly. Vary the speed and you should be fine so long as the bike is mechanically sound. My Stella's been ridden on highways to rallies for more than 50...
I know it can be done, in a pack I would be more comfortable, here in Seattle the truckers get curious and want to see the little scooter up close blowing you...
It can be done. I've done several 200+ mile round trips with ease when my bike was stock. I rode to Richmond and back to the Baltimore area pretty much non...
I used to live there... Seattle drivers are a treat. My favorite move is on the ramp from eastbound 520 onto southbound I5 then across 6 lanes to the Denny Way...
Hey there, scooter pal! You're right, that was a headwind, I suppose. I know I get blown around on a 600-lb motorcycle (try riding across Kansas or West Texas...

I don't know his name. I believe he's from Montgomery (?). I met him last year at the Vulcan's Tallahassee rally. He rode to and from the rally on the...
My arms are turning to rubber trying to clean all that protective yellow film from my wheels. I've been using Goo Gone and it works but not very well. Does...
