Re: Sunday April 24

Thanks so much. Forgive me but what is your name again? I’m Duane. I’d be grateful for a guided tour of the Vespa. I’ll pay for it and newbie assistance.

Re: Sunday April 24

Thanks so much. I’d love a walk through. I’ll pick up a filter and cancel the Tuesday appointment. This bike is a 2018 with only 1,400 km but I have no idea of any service history. I bought it in October so I intended for a spring oil change, coolant check, etc. I purchased a two year extended warra...

Re: Sunday April 24

I have a couple questions for the experts. If I need a new battery, what’s the best local solution? Also, I have an oil change booked for Tuesday at AB Cycle. Is that the best choice? I miss not having the surroundings to do these things anymore.

Re: Sunday April 24

2018 GTS 300 Super

I’ll give it a whirl. It’s been a while. I was used to a fully equipped heated garage with all my late father’s gear for so long. Now it’s a carport at a condo building.

I figure maybe at lunch I’ll go out. What’s ping?

Re: Sunday April 24

I was spoiled much of my life having a fully equipped garage at my disposal. Condo life is a change - in addition to my disability. Fun, fun.

Re: Sunday April 24

Yes, I have a charger. I have to figure out how to move the battery. Using the net it appears simple.

Re: Sunday April 24

Terrific. If my battery holds a charge I’ll be there. I have an oil change planned for Tuesday.

I was an ass in the autumn and the battery was out for the winter. My bad.

Re: 2021 50cc Sprint Upgrades

Girl, guy, what-have-you, all no problem. We help out club fellow members all the time. I’m so grateful for this club kindness. I’m heading to year 44 riding but I’m a few removed from a warm garage and all my father’s tools. I use a walker on foot but am a few years removed from complete routine m...

Re: 2021 50cc Sprint Upgrades

I agree. My Grom was 125cc and I zipped around the city like a boss. I just couldn’t do highways and I avoided the Henday. I was on the Yellowhead a couple times and survived.

Damn. Just saw this. I’d have been on. I must visit here more often, even in winter.

Happy New Year to all.

2022 is going to be mighty fine.

Merry Christmas and all the best to Edmonton enthusiasts. I’m so looking forward to spring and discovering my Vespa. I’m going to need all the help and direction I can get - even after 43 years of riding all manner of larger machines. May this Christmas and the new year be joyous, safe and happy to ...

Re: Sunday Oct 31

Gee whiz, you fellas are a hardy lot. I got up and saw -8 and said “nope”. I wouldn’t have seen the location change anyway. I see some +8 highs coming up so I might wander a bit Wednesday afternoon. A buddy and I once rode to Jasper on Remembrance Day and spent the night in an empty town with summer...
