Nice.
Have you had to replace the rubber engine mounts?

Nice!
It will take me at least three more years to get there myself.

Getting the 2020 Vespa Sei Giorni actually delayed it a bit. Have 13,000 mi on the Vespa.

Pretty cool! A friend of mine has one with 50k miles, a lot of it on cobblestone streets...

I am just about to break into 10k mile territory with mine - got it late in 2020 with 800 miles on the clock. Enjoying it and it is my daily beater most of the time for urban duties. It has behaved well (other than minor quality issues with screws shaking loose and similar), but clearly one has to stay on top of service stuff and a good shop nearby helps. It's Italian after all...
