Or just a fun toy.
Yes, Tim went out and got hisself a brandy new
Vespa GTS 250 and is having a blast. Follow him

Well, here it is. All tricked out with
a front rack, a full FACO wind
screen, rear FACO crash bars -
a.k.a. cowl protectors, a rear rack
(standard issue), a GIVI topcase -
complete with rear brake lights
and modulators, and, the piece de
resistance, the genuine Sears
sheepskin seat cover.
... and the Raputtak front banner.
As of today, November 23, 2011, I have 6252 miles on the
odometer. I am on the second set of tires. The original tires
were SAVA. The rear one lasted about 2500 miles, the
frontwent 5000 before developing a serious case of
cupping. I now have Pirellis front and back.
