Thanks for having me!

I picked up my first scooter, a 2015 Vespa Primavera 50, a few weeks ago and just found this forum. Looks like a great place to hang out.
I have already found lots of useful information here. I hope to be able to contribute as well.

I have been around motorcycles since the mid 60's with a brief 20 year lay off while raising our family. Been back on two wheels since 2001 or so owning 8 cycles since...but this is my first scooter. What a hoot!

Thanks again!
