So JJ, what can you do for Leo...use your connections and get him one of those Bajaj Auto scooters!

I just found out that Bajaj Auto has closed the scooter plant and won't produce any more.

They were sold in the US so I'll find one here.

They look like this.

Yes, that's the one, Leo. A few ornamental changes since the one I had way back in the '80s, but I think the basic design is still the same.

Thanks for the nostalgia, my friend.

Had a couple of 1960's Lambretta's including a 150 LI with bucket seats when I was a teenager, long since gone

galloman · 9 February 2010, 05:26 PM

Congrats Leo !!

Sorry, no wheels here; I'm a poor grad student : (

idk01 · 9 February 2010, 06:15 PM

Congrats on 7K Leo

Love the scooters guys!!!! The last time I cruised around on one was in Italy, now that was an experience and a half.

But environmentally friendly

TSW · 9 February 2010, 06:44 PM

Congrats on your 7k kompis!! Impressive scooter collection you got

FastBurner · 10 February 2010, 12:23 AM

Here is mine... I've had it for 7 years, and it's been on 3 continents with me now. I love it!

I can see why, great looking Vespa.

TattooedGQ · 10 February 2010, 12:42 AM

Glad to see you on 2 wheels Leo....Very fun looking collection, I'm surprised to see no Bergman's or Silver Wings?? Most guys I know with scooters eventually get one of the big boys.

Thanks Justin, these are just toys.

When my leg is ready I'm going to build myself another FLSTN.

Looks good Dalip, you just dropped JJ off?

Lol-x · 10 February 2010, 10:40 AM

Scooters are very practical that's for sure.
They are everywhere in some asian countries like Taiwan.
With that many scooters you could start a rental company.

I personally like a little more power, hence a motorcycle.

Congrats on the 7K
