Of all the girls in the world - hell, even in just the U.S. - they pick *that* one to paint the team USA uni on?! Crying or Very sad emoticon What, was Danica Patrick busy that day?

Is there a reason you've got the Union Flag on it?? (straight question)
Good one at that...

I've never won any points for style, to say the least. I go from gawdy to clean in neat little 2-year cycles for some reason. My car snd scoot are both in the clean phase at the moment. Gone are the union graphics, the pirate flag, 2-toned seat and whitewalls. Now it's straight silver and black.

As for why Union, there seems to be only 4 designs for accessories; Union, St. George, roundel and checkered. At the time, I chose Union.

Which is really a bitch if you are trying to find just some solid color accessories....

I'm still new, can anyone identify this scooter? Is it a p200e? What modifications have been done? Any idea why there is so many wires under the horn cast?


Thanks

It's a Stella and that's why there is so much stuff under the horncast. It's got a modified DR177 top end and a bigger carb and a pipe.

Yep
While true that sporting the U.S. stripes would not be considered cool (especially where I live) ..if anyone was wrapped in that much flag from any country it would look stupid.
I don't know about that..
DING DING...WE GOT A WINNER!

That exhaust is rediculous on any bike that wants to do any type of curves.

Yes, why? Looks like he's leaned over going round a curve in that pic to me. And there's clearance on the pipe.

It's either yours or you know the bike. Either way it looks like a blast. I'd love to ride deal's gap.

Way to safety up, dood (first pic) Nerd emoticon

I know people in the MINI club who won't return to the Dragon to drive IN THEIR CAR. A dangerous road, now sadly covered with cops, but probably a frickin' blast on a scoot. That is, once you get away from the Harleys and sport bikes and Winnebagos and god-know-what-else.

Well if you call using up the center of the tires at 15 mph "leaning"

More clearance than my sito, but not as much as my Thruxton.
