Well said Frac! The ones that bash 49cc scooters have never spent much time with a well-tuned, growling 70cc 2-stroke. Personally, I do not care much for the...
In a review in Scooter Rider Mag, BJ Strauss (the editor) said he was disappointed that he could not get the 150cc UM Matrix to go faster than 47 MPH whereas...
I'd forgotten about the new Derbi Gp1 being a hybrid and I think I was describing it instead of the CPI GTR. The Gilera DNA is the first hybrid, AFAIK. v...
Of the 3, the new GP1 looks the nicest to me, but I'm starting to doubt we'll ever see it get to the U.S. Piaggio has had 8 months to pull their heads out and...
... It's weird about Piaggio and Derbi. Piaggio has owned Derbi for a while now. They just decided to take over distribution of Derbi in this country. I'm...
I just got out of the hospital after a crash on my scooter. It had just started to rain and as I was coming to a stop sign, I eased off the throttle and...
I am so sorry to hear about your accident! I rode to work the other morning in the rain and it was like riding a skimboard over all the oil slicks. I don't...
I have been looking into getting on of those helmets as well and did a little research. Basically they are DOT tested but NOT SNELL tested because SNELL has...
thats what i was thinking. it kinda favors the paul smart ducati remakes that are coming out next year. i could totally do some body mods to make one look more...

yeah i am well versed in jazz. and i sing classic ratpack songs (no lie) at the local bar on tuesdays, two blocks from my loft. also my grandmother was a...
I have used a nolan N100 flip face for the last 4 years. I like it. If the chinguard is latched, it is very secure. Ride safe, Dave ... other morning ... ...
Bryce I agree..Being Cut-off from Parts wasn't too nice..If i would have known I would have put in a Humungous Order with Derbi West before they closed. One...
I too have the n100e and like it. The HJC is a nice flip up too although Ive heard from motorcycle riders it is a bit noisy, probably not a problem on the...
Has anyone ever ordered a helmet online? It seems to be a bit of a risk if you've never tried one on, yet most of the shops that carry a variety of helmets...
I wear glasses as well, and have to remove them first before I put the helmet on or take it off. Mine doesn't have the removable bar. Small price to pay. I'll...
I ordered mine online. I did make sure that I could return it if it didnt fit. Its kinda a gamble because you will get a better deal but then if it doesnt...
I ordered a Vega helmet on line and paid careful attention to the measurements. I wear glaases and it was important to have the modular helmet for ease of...

This is a forum about scooters, for people who like and enjoy talking about scooters. I will not 'shut up' just for you Taj. I don't like the cpi gtr bike....
I have a Vega Summit. I got it exactly a year ago, but only started wearing it regularly since July. About 3 weeks ago the ratchet mechanism on the right side...
This secenario is (unfortunately) quite common with helmets. Often it is only a $3 part that needs to be replaced, but the mfgrs refuse to pay for shipping...
I own both a HJC open face and a Nolan 100 flip face. By far, the Nolan seems to be a better made and ( for me, 7 1/4 hat size ) much more comfortable and snug...
