Der neue stolze Eigentümer war so nett und hat mir ausrichten lassen, dass es meiner ehemaligen orangefarbenen Vespa GTS 300 SuperSport gut geht. Der Roller bekommt nun endlich die Behandlung, die er verdient hat: neunhundert Kilometer hat er an diesem langen Wochenende bereits herunter gespult. Das ist fast so viel, wie ich im ganzen letzten Jahr gemacht habe. Dabei wurde auch nochmal bestätigt, dass Alonzo in perfektem Allgemeinzustand ist, super läuft und bereits einige Motorradfahrer ziemlich "alt" aussehen ließ. Weiterhin gute Fahrt!

Ach, das ist ja nett :-)
ReplyDeleteFinde ich auch, offensichtlich haben sich da die zwei richtigen "Partner" gefunden ;-)
DeletePretty cool! It really stand out from the crowd of boring black and grey…
ReplyDeleteIt always did, didn't it?
DeleteVery kind of him to have sent an update and the "All is well!" He's a fortunate new owner!
ReplyDeleteThat was very sweet of him, Doug. And he really seemed to be the kind of guy who would appreciate it ;-)
DeleteVery cool that his new owner sent you an update with a picture too.
ReplyDeleteHe was also smitten by Alonzo, and understood my need for closure...
DeleteI'm curious--what made you so ready to keep Bella over Alonzo?
ReplyDeleteOh, and I agree with the prevailing sentiment--scooters / motorcycles simply must be ridden.
Ry, this was was for economic reasons mostly, Bella is an old (but fine) lady, while Alonzo is half the age, and while Bella was regularly put to work as a commuter vehicle (a bit beaten up, battle scars and all), Alonzo was kept protected to keep up the potential resale value.
DeleteTotally cool that you are getting updates from the road. Very sweet.
