Nice scooter! And good looking rider too

I absolutely love the orange S's. Mine is white though, but if the orange ones had been available, I might have got one. Congrats on gaining the courage to ride it.

Good for you! It's a great looking ride! Enjoy!!

Are you also riding when it rains? Just like last summer, we're having WAY too much rain lately.

Thanks!
Thanks again! The helmet is white... will have to look for an orange one maybe. I got caught coming home in the rain last week on my first ride home from work (Toronto has had rain non-stop the last week... on top of the stinky garbage strike!)

The indicators do work on the body... sorry so late replying. Just emerging from the weeklong hell that was my wisdom teeth extraction. Finally good weather and I've not been able to ride!
