What a day, I've had a great time in Greenwich and Blackheath topped off with a couple of pints of guinness (after I had put the vespa away).

You can't beat London in the sun.

Couldn't agree more, ev. London is the place to be when the sun's shining and you've got a scooter. Possibly a bit optimistic removing the lining from my scooter jacket and switching to summer gloves but who care, summer's definitely coming at last! Great photos - Your scooter look superb.

Lovely bike!! I love those GTV's. I ride a GTS myself, But I'm definitely going to change to a GTV, those handlebars with the little screen, and the low headlight, fantastic! And then the two part leather saddles, They really look great!

Good photos too, I'm off to check the weather report, cos i think I'll ride to work tomorrow if it's not pouring

God, I love that scooter. Like deeyup, I'm thinking about switching out my GT for the GTV. I love that chameleon color...blue in some angles, a gorgeous gray in others. Eye catching no matter how you look at it.

The GTV makes Jaguar look like they don't know the meaning of the word gorgeous (ad campaign in UK).

I keep polishing my grey gt and squinting at it, but I can't kid myself, I'm just going to have to get a GTV. The thing just looks so good! (even tho I'm a still a bit undecided about the lower headlamp)

Now to the mortgage advisor...

Yes I love my GTV but I will give one word of caution. If you are tall (I'm 5'11") you may find it a little cramped as you cant sit as far back as you can on a GTS. I have no problems but if I were a bit taller I think very long rides may not be the most comfortable.

Anyway who cares, it fits me and I love it!!! Razz emoticon
