Does your scooter have a theme song? You know, one that kinda goes through your head as your roll down the road?

My Blue Dragon is partial to the Temptaions, "Get Ready"

That is what I hear as I hit the ramp on the tollway.

Yep, I am old! But I am a classic!

Everytime I think about my scooter,
I think of the theme song "I Love My Mac"
Except I'm replacing the "I Love My Mac" with "I Love My Vespa"

I posted this one a couple years back and got nearly raked over the coals for it - wrong audience, I guess - but this one is still my Vespa's song:

Perfectly good riding song to have, I wonder why you got raked over the coals?

Anyhow I don't have any specific song, it is almost always the last song I heard that goes through my mind when I'm riding. It gets boring on a long ride because I need to hear another one before I can get the current one out of my head.

I think it was because the song isn't ska, punk, rockabilly, or any other genre that scooterists are assumed to all listen to.

Lots of Top Gun references (to my song), too, in that old thread...

I can get away with parping this song when wearing the full-face helmet but not so easy with the open-face.

My riding theme song is whatever was on the radio just before I put my helmet on. Some days this is a good thing, some days very, very bad.
I have tried the iPod in helmet thing. Not my scene.

OMG I love this and I am having fun trying to picture you and your scooters rolling down the road.

I took Rex's and posted it on my face book

As for the Darth Vadar theme.. Is your scooter black?

My musical tastes are all over the map.... but I have to say more often than not when I start to get in a groove and am driving fast I start to hear "White Riot" the the Clash.

Not sure what dark forgotten corner of my mind that is coming from....
