Hi,

Due to an unfortunate set of circumstances I can't ride my vespa until next April . Any tips on what I should do - should I drain the tank of petrol for example?
thanks Crying or Very sad emoticon

Sorry to hear the bad news...perhaps you could do us a favor and compile the information on long term storage and post it on Wiki? Would probably help those who have same question that comes up periodically.

Take care and hope to see you back on the road as soon as possible...

There is a winter storage article in the wiki section, that would be what you'd want to do with your scooter. Winterizing Your Scooter

Man, that is tragic. I am freaking out because I am going vacation for 10 days and won't be able to ride. Will be up in Mass, I am going to stop by Plymouth Vespa where I bought my scooter and see if they will let me take something for a test ride

You're welcome, I wrote that original article, so I don't mind directing people to it.
