A few of the Singlespeeds that I have had over the years...
Slumming it in Newport, RI 😉
Cocktails on " the lawn" at Castle Hill and a couple of other spots..
I thought that it was cool that in a lot full of Porsches, Range Rovers, and MB's the valet's were fighting for the fob to Betty ( my car).. The guy who pulled it around told me it was the coolest thing he drove all day..
Not sure about that.. But it did look like Mick Jagger in full regalia in a sea full of accountants in the lot when it came around..
Run to the beach for some seafood..
Summer in full effect!
It's been a fun 5 years and 25K..
Just passing the circumference of the earth. She's been a blast and very reliable too.
Yours for the price of shipping.
I am cleaning the garage. This worked fine when I pulled it from my '12 Pro 4X a few years back.. First come first served.. 🍻 Cheers!

A little 3D printed bling for the old girl...
The kids are always asking what kind of bike it is and what year.. Now they can read it for themselves..
Commuting in Mexico...
Let's say that you are a middle aged guy who drives responsibly 99% of the time and you are crusing along in your Scat Shaker 6 sp on your way home from work minding you own business.. Now let's say that a guy in a nondescript grocery getter pulls along side and holds for a second, and then gives it the beans and away he goes, quite impressively actually ( that soccer mom car has some sauce).. Now let's just say that he gets off your exit in Mexico.. You pull along side and he gives you the nod... Do you know what happens? Well if executed correctly you drop to third and he gets a really nice view of the classicly styled tail lights of the Scat.. Some EV's are really fast.. That one not so much..
Old guys can still be provoked..
The old girl got some new peepers!
27 years and counting and we are still modding and riding this old scooter. I decided to try some HID bulbs. It was a little bit of a PIA to get them installed as I had to take the upper fairing off and modify the headlight boots. But not too, bad overall. The lights are fantastic. 🍻
