Modern Vespa

..kind of 'Special Small'.

Found in Scott's office the other day at Rapid City's Powersports Royal Enfield/Kawasaki/and a bunch of other stuff that I have zero interest in, such as snowmobiles, side-by-side recreational vehicles, sundry ATV 'things', and $45,000 Vanderhall three-wheelers.

But I digress.

What caught my attention was this fantastic, 1/4 scale, teensy-weensy Royal Enfield 500 single model motorcycle on his desk. I had been aware of these since last year, but hadn't actually seen one in person until now.

It's all metal as far as I can tell, at least where the actual bike is all metal anyway.

They are/were available in a quite limited number, maybe 200? but I'm not certain, and am too lazy to spend two minutes doing a search on these and know for sure.

They are/were $1500.

I hear teensy people will come up to you as you're leaving the minimart and ask you small minded questions about your bike.

…and tires are very expensive.

I can answer small-minded questions with aplomb, and have read Gulliver's Travels frontwards, backwards, and sideways, so I am quite comfortable around diminutive folks, and their little queries.
