Chrome exhaust, chrome stand, new grips, some nice litte things and she's looking good. Come on spring...where are you?nondisclosed_email@example.com (Argyle7)Sat, 02 Feb 2013 08:38:41 +0000 Re: I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236419,from=rss#post236419https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236419,from=rss#post236419Latest update...couldn't help myself with adding a few things here and there but just taking it all a bit at a time. Not likely to get out much over the winter but will be ready for the spring and enjoy hopefully a much better summer in 2013. Anyone wandering whether to go for it...my advice is don't wait as long as I did ...go for it and enjoy. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Argyle7)Sun, 25 Nov 2012 17:23:54 +0000 Re: I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236130,from=rss#post236130https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236130,from=rss#post236130Cheers Alex...yes it's like the old saying...everything is relative. I get on my scoot here and she looks brilliant all nicely polished etc, but then you see some of these classic scooters at events and they look absolutely stunning. Their owners must spend evry spare minute on them mind but I must admit it's great to see just how good they can look. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Argyle7)Mon, 28 May 2012 05:57:48 +0000 Re: I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236129,from=rss#post236129https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236129,from=rss#post236129 Sounds like you are enjoying your first scoot mate , but also sounds like you are already dreaming of the next one ! lolnondisclosed_email@example.com (Alex NL)Sun, 27 May 2012 13:15:01 +0000 Re: I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236126,from=rss#post236126https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236126,from=rss#post236126Just thought I'd share my thoughts and feedback so far... Good stuff: I've loved it, just owning her and cleaning her up and just seeing what the subtle changes look like (new seat, new mudflap, few tiny bits and pieces here and there and best of all whitewall tyres which made her look so much better. Best of all though is I can't believe how many people have been so friendly and talked, offering me out to events or a beer etc. I stopped for petrol yesterday and two blokes in diffrent cars just came over and chatted for ages...offered me out to see a local mod gig at a pub and talked about their own Scoots etc. Never had so many 'mates' in my life! Not so good: I just don't get as much time as I'd hoped as there's always so much other stuff to do as well. Also...please don't take offence but I've been out on a few scooter runs now and having owned a few sports bike in the past I can't believe how many Scooter riders are just not that confident with their riding. Quite a few seem to wobble all over the place and just look not very good riders. Most of all though I'm enjoying it and she looks lovely but when I pull up next to some of the classic Lambretttas out there, she doesn't look quite so good...but I'm still very happy. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Argyle7)Sun, 27 May 2012 06:09:48 +0000 Re: I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236007,from=rss#post236007https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236007,from=rss#post236007Cheers Mystery...she arrives tomorrow and I'm looking forward to cleaning her up and then see what little changes to make. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Argyle7)Thu, 23 Feb 2012 07:39:42 +0000 Re: I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236004,from=rss#post236004https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p236004,from=rss#post236004quote:Argyle7 wrote: Some of you may know that I have been umming and ahhing for quite a few years now about buying my first ever Scooter...well at last I've actually done it!

Seriously you'll have fun, a PX is always a safe bet for a first bike. I had my T5 for years before I bought my Lammy. Problem is now I can't get my scoot out of the garage, bloody things wedged in with kids toys.nondisclosed_email@example.com (chez Boston)Mon, 20 Feb 2012 23:25:02 +0000 I've only gone and done it!https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p235992,from=rss#post235992https://bmodrevivalforums.runboard.com/p235992,from=rss#post235992Some of you may know that I have been umming and ahhing for quite a few years now about buying my first ever Scooter...well at last I've actually done it!
