My scooter club showed our scooters at the Antique Motorcycle show today in Queens, NY. I got second place against 2 Heinkels. Not too shabby. Lots of cool old motorcycles as well.

Nice job!
I would encourage anyone with a Vintage scooter to enter a show. A couple of us have entered a few car and bike shows. We have always had really fun days when we did! |

Very nice, bud.
I don't know what kind of display you have for that bike of yours, but you should try to collect some provenance for the bike... the antique / collector guys love that shit. For example, i have the original owners manual and spare parts manual for my GS160. ( scored them on ebay.co.uk ) A big binder full of production photos of your bike before and after also helps. Also period advertisements and technical info from journals or period reviews of the bike. ( i have all this for my SS180 ) Put all that on a stand in front of the bike so people can get more background of your bike... stuff like that. You'll win it next time. |
