A friend of mine just flew back from Vienna, and was surprised to see a Vespa store in the Airport! Not only accessories, but you can apparently purchase scooters there as well! Beats the Harley Davidson store I saw in the Hong Kong Airport -- they only sold jackets and helmets!

Well you could do what we did years ago with our 2 man kayak. The airlines wouldn't let in under because it was big so we sawed it in half. When we got to Chile we just duct taped it back together and proceeded to run the river. Very cool that they would have a Vespa shop in the airport. Always liked Austria. 8)

Hmmm I think I remember that from when I was in Vienna, my old age is starting to show.
