Keep the loop, but drive one of these in your grumpy, arthritic old age...

The wife bought her 2013 (w/windscreen) in 2015 for $3500, with roughly 20,000 miles on the clock.

Nice scooter - much more versatile than the Honda Helix she had been riding.  We run up to Santa Barbara together and she loves it.  The only problem is getting rid of that silly grin on her face every time she rides it.

Among the Valley of the Sun Guzzisti...there is a famous story, a few years back, about a group ride to Vegas where one very surprised Guzzisti on his Le Mans turned to look back and was passed at over 100 mph by a Suzuki 650 Burgmann like this one!!

I have a Burgman 400, and it is fast enough for me. I have a feeling the top end is faster than my V7. Girlfriend has a Taotao 150cc, and it hauls her tiny butt along at 55 without much trouble. Amazingly nice for 800.00 brand new.

Never heard of a TaoTao 150cc scooter!  Cool beans!!  :1:

Well, I suppose if one wanted to go the vintage Geezer route...there's always the mid-1920's Ner-A-Car!!    Billed as "The Safety Cycle" back in the day and made in Syracuse, NY. :1:

This is a GREAT buy @ $6995 at Winchester Motorsports in Clearbrook, VA (see thread above this shop....)        I really need to win the LOTTERY...

Another "vintage" option...

I like the squeeze-bulb horn!!

I just saw an elderly couple, all packed up and obviously on tour on one of these!  Very cool and another serious contender!! :1:

Don't tell anyone, but I would love to have one of these for putting around, if I couldn't hold up a bike.

Listen...nothing wrong with that...and infinitely better than sitting on the couch...waiting to die....with the TV remote...drooling out of both ends!!!

Too much pride for that. I'd ride behind my wife first, lol

Of course, one could never go wrong with a Guzzi-powered TriKing!! :1:
