I would not have known otherwise...

Let's get some vidclips when you start jumping cars...

It sounds like it took 8 hours for the testing. Is that right?? I can't imagine that. Is that a super secret war machine from Oz?

Now that you've got the hard part behind you, have fun with your new toy. See ya in a few days.

It looks spiffy Rod. Have fun. Around here I'd be scared to drive one of those any great distance.

People get scooters without being licensed around here all the time. I have never figured out why the police let that happen... It's good to hear that you're doing it the right way, even if it is state enforced.

In case anyone's interested...

This is where I did my training/testing - tells you what it's all about...

I guess my response has to be: THAT's a bike

NOTHING looks as good as a (well kept), Harley (but a silver Vespa is a close second )

Can't sleep, eh?

[RodKirby]

Yup.......

Rod, Sounds like you really can teach an old dog new tricks (tests, etc.) Enjoy the new toy. Sounds like fun.
