Hey guys, just checking in here from Tampa. Just got a deal on a used ET4 with 11k miles. The positive is it was well loved with all the maintance done on schedule. Anyone else in here in the Tampa Bay area? Who wants to bomb some beaches! Lol.

Nice, I have a 2004 Et4 with about he same mileage. I love mine. I have done some fairly long rides (like 50miles 1 way) with it and it is very comfortable. I have sat on the newer LXs and didn't find them as good for me.

It's a great little scooter! Enjoy!

I like in Tampa ride a 9 mile commute every day on my Stella 2T (Almost identical to PX150).

What area do you work in? There is a vintage club here in Tampa, but I don't know about a modern vespa one.

I usually check over at the Not So Modern Section. I
t would always be fun to ride with someone when I can sneak away.

Hope to see you on the roads!

Aloha and welcome to the forum from Hawaii. I love the ET'S and have been looking for one over here for years but no go. We have a billion 200's. Thanks for the pics and it's a beauty. Ride safe and have fun.
