Maybe I have an overly suspicious mind, but why would someone change tires in the first 200 miles? It seems like an aficionado who was concerned enough to put different tires on a brand new scoot would ride it more than 200 miles. Odd.

Someone looking for a concourse bike wants EVERYTHING original..it's pretty smart of him to include the original tires. When I show my restored SS 180 and the tires are low...I find a fat Italian grandma with strong lips so I have the correct air in them! |

That Super is a terrific find. We would buy it ourselves, if it were closer.
If there's anyone in that area who knows anyone thinking of getting a vintage scooter, point him or her in the direction of that bike. Very low original mileage scooters are getting harder and harder to find. |

Some funky parts on it, but this looks to me like a legit bike, and probably a good deal:

Thats a neat scoot.... But at 4 bucks a gallon, it would take 1,000 bucks to get it to so-cal, then there's out of state CHP inspection.
Pain. What a nice scooter. |
