jasper65 6 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 would be nice if there was some sort of comeback for the youngsters to follow again. most have their arses super glued infront of Facebook or any other social networking site. Lovely looking scooter by the way Embod! very nice pal . Have to say it was the old Vespa's I had a soft spot for! I loved my old PX150. I remember when I was a lad they used to have some local disco's on a friday night 4 - 5 times a year from 8pm until 1am! a few of us would turn up and park the scooters right outside the doors where the main light was, through the night I would pop out now and again to check they was ok! remember it like yesterday seeing all five Fanny magnets gleaming under the spotlight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
