 been riding this 1987 spree for the last 3 years. it's in real good shape for the year. had been with out a bike of any kind for seven years so fun to be on the road (sorta) again.  a great in town commuter to go get small stuff around town. common to take 16-18 mile round trips and my longest was maybe 35 miles.  actually it was nice to be stuck at 30 mph as it makes you slow down and look around more. great for spotting wild life as so quiet a lot of times they weren't spooked out on the back roads. now i feel bad that the Spree will get shoved aside by the 650 and will be stuck with the in town commuter chores......

Sorta has a vintage style to it a little bit. Not too bad for a scooter.  smiler

I was in New Orleans last weekend and notice a huge influx of scooters in that city.  Most of them in the 80-125 cc range (smaller size like yours).

Scooters are great for the city errand runs. My bikes don't mind waiting their turn to go for rides. They all know they are better at something than their stablemates and their turn to go for a ride is coming.  happy1

I do a lot of work in Center City Phila. and there are tons of little scooters running around. They are very popular with the college crowd.
