Re: GTS
Larry, I have one of these on order through your Akron store, if you are part of the same dealer group.

One question for you: does the US version of the GTS have the ABS braking system? Just curious..

Thanks, Greg

No ABS for the USA. Some promo photos at the Vespa USA site are ABS models (you can make out the notched ABS brake disc) but they are not going to be selling the ABS model here yet.

For a clear view of the ABS disc see the photo of the black GTS at

http://www.vespaquest.com

They doctored a Euro ABS model with US reflectors

Thanks, Bzzz, that's what I thought..

Now that you mention reflectors, will the US models have them? I'm planning on removing them if it does...

Hey Spice, I'll have to come down and see those babies. (like to see one side by side with a GT.) Though it will be on 4 wheels not 2 - bummer.

Just so everyone living in the Great Lakes area knows, all this winter weather here is my fault. I bought a GT at the end of November and it has snowed ever since. Haven't seen pavement on the road in front of our house for three weeks!! Cruel and unusual punishment, eh.

PS - Mrs. C. said she delivered a plate of Christmas Goodies for the Vespa gang. Pretty good baker ain't she? We had better keep an eye on her she may be buttering you up for a deal on a new Scoot...just kidding.

So now I know who to blame!!

I've kept my GT in an accessible spot since downtown Toronto can usually count on lengthy periods of bare, dry winter roads...but not so far.

My last ride was a commute to work on November 30. After that, the snow came a stayed!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the traditional January thaw (although we didn't get it last year).

Spice,

We got to get one of these things on the freakin track up there for the dogs bolloks run next year. Sam and I are thinking of bringin' only autos for next time!

But, nothin's funnier than a fat guy on a ts1 making it down the 1/4 faster than 90% of the others...
