This is a scooter channel for the deranged.
It all began in August, 2023 not long after I brought home a brand new 2023 Vespa GTS 300 Super Sport (in bianco innocente). I do reviews, rants, observations, stories and all kinds of scooter-related stuff. Really, though, I'm just having a blast making content , building a community, and hopefully making you laugh a bit.

The First (and Last) Annual Bug Scooter Roast!
People love their scooters, but I find most of them boring. So I spiced them up a little. Welcome to the first ever Bug Scooter Roast and Fix-It Thingie... I promise to never do this again.
Filmed on my 2023 Vespa GTS Super Sport, which I believe is the Bianco Innocente version. Also filmed in my basement. Which is kinda Bianco Innocente, if I'm being honest.

Yes yes, a product review... But this really is a great product. (STAY TO THE VERY END, IT'S WORTH IT!!!!) The Chigee AIO-5 Play is a scaled down (and less expensive) version of the more complete AIO-5 Lite, but it's all you need to turn your Vespa into a technological marvel. I just finished 400 miles over two days on my motorcycle, in 90-degree heat, and this thing worked perfectly. Chigee is...

REVIEW: Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 Air Bag System on my Vespa GTS 300

When I'm out riding Gwyneth, my 2023 Vespa GTS 300 Super Sport (in bianco innocente), I like a little extra protection from the nitwits who drive as an afterthought, including myself. So I recently bought the Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 air bag vest, and I gotta say, it's a sweet piece of kit. It's certainly not cheap. But it could prove to be more than worth it.

How To Ride a SCOOTER - A Beginner's Guide!
Lots of "I don't know..." If you don't know, don't give an opinion. Ridiculous. Waste of time.
Thanks for your positivity!
Hi, what GoPro mount is that? Also do you just have mirrors on your grip?
Fun video. I just got my first Vespa a couple days ago and my initial impressions are that it feels much more natural in the city than it does out in the burbs. Mine is just a LX150 but it feels more comfortable and at home on dense city streets where the max speed is about 30mph and the small size, nimble handling, and park it anywhere capabilities are a true advantage. On big, wide suburban roads and highways, I'm blasted and buffeted by the wind and it's just a bit less fun to be on the scooter. Anyway, I just found your channel and you saved me from buying that Saddleman bag 👍
so boring just watching someone ride in a straight line just spewing out whatever comes to his head
Thanks. I really enjoyed your HP Deskjet 2630 All-in-One Printer Review. Lots of good insight. Was glued to the screen.
6:36 Natasha just walked right over and choked your chicken.
I want a Randy chicken please
Im debating on geting a front and/or rear rack and buying spare tires and rims to attach to it.
After spending 1100 on the dipstick breaking in the engine i got the dipstick. Makes sense if u change your own oil
I dont want to put a exhaust on the bike cause i love the quiet sound.
No stickers on ur vespa unless its covering a mistake. Keep it on your helmet
Andre's existing mods are pretty dank. The crock pot drifts into slapstick territory
Funny ideas and recommendations you have there bug, I should’ve sent in my GT 250 pic, ha ha. Pismo Paul.
So Bug…. No gloves on the hard science videos, I do have a PhD but trying to figure out the reasoning?
Happy anniversary and thanks for modifying my Vespa into war machine😂😅
Classic Bug.
Haha this made my night! Love the money saving recommendation 😂
Did you have some sort of seizure around 07:00 😂
Love your videos. Just watched the one on you ‘promoting’ bar end mirrors. Wondered if this was a type of video you were thinking of pursuing in the future? If so could i recommend you doing a review of vespa paint colours, especially the bianco innocente
Dude, you're a lot of fun! The moment you said "This is it" I absolutely agree! Stay strong, ride on!
It's about damn time! I had to get on methadone because you haven't produced any video's! The addiction is real! I mean what the heck, do you honestly have a job? Glad you're back! 😂

Good to see the Vespa back on the road again! And those yellow asides are still the best thing on UA-cam. Seriously.
Thanks Bug. I’ve just purchased a new 2023 GTS Super Sport, due to be delivered in a couple of days. Appreciated your perspective - and I can’t wait until it gets here.
This is funny!
You rascal. Glad I didn't send in my lovely Primavera pics. They are hi-class and don't deserve to be treated like this!!!! Ok, to be honest, I just forgot. I used to think that getting old sucked. Now I'm just happy to be able to think sometimes. Kewl editing bug.!!!!! Seriously, I enjoyed it.
Thanks for featuring my SuperTech!! Great video!!
Wow your SuperTech resembles mine except I have Grigio Entusiasta. I have the top box, tall windscreen, and the ScooterWest glovebox satchel. Good looking Scooter!
@@mannfan12 You clearly have great taste!!
Just about 100 yards to the left of where Marcia parked her Vespa under the Acropolis is a fantastic restaurant that serves perhaps the best vanilla milkshake I have ever had. Sitting on their patio, gazing at the Acropolis, savoring a milkshake...so good, I had two of 'em!
I don't have a choice, I have to live vicariously through you, flatgrind, and fourwedge....just had ACL reconstruction yesterday so i'm laid the fark up. Only took uncle sugar 5 months to fix it though, so there's that.....i guess? Glad you're well sir!
Really enjoy your content!👍🏻
Haha!! Thank you for this! Amazing. I will consider your recommendations post haste!
7m11s of my life......down the toilet! Just add that to the 50+ years of my existence, and the percentage of wasted time is actually pretty low.
Down the toilet is sometimes the only way get out of the house, I understand.
I hate to break it you Bug but Piaggio Did Do a Vespa model with an Anti Tank Weapon on it. I'll email you the pictures. Really ! OH ! And Happy Anniversary from all US GTS Owners in the UK. 😊
❤
Ha, got this bulky pocketfiller just yesterday and do not get the great idea either.
I hear you. Vespa must have noted your concerns and now they've removed the scooters and swapped them out for horses...actual horses.. and women... wearing underwear. 4-AUG-2024 My summer attire will be more ...substantial. I own a 2017 Sei Giorni GTV300 and love it.
Dude we be waiting for the next video!
This guy is comic gold.
Good review, nice flow. Nice glasses also care to name them?
Nice ! Which Vespa Model do y ride!! 😊
I didn’t know this was a real channel. I thought I was crashing someone’s personal vlog. Sorry, Bug I accidentally hit subscribe. Just kidding I really enjoy your humor.
I’m think you have a defective quad lock unit. I have the same one and have no problems charging my iPhone. Great content btw
i like your rear saddleman bag can you tell me the model and size and of course if you recommend .Thank you.
I bought the windscreen, not the flyscreen for my GTS 300. I can’t imagine riding without it. Even with it, you can see the bugs and debris that litter the front of my motorcycle jacket. It’s like the face screen of your helmet. I can’t imagine the bugs hitting your face and hair being as romantic as the anti-helmet advocates make it sound. 😊
You’re using the quad lock wrong. For the sake of scooters learn to use a tire plug kit or don’t have an opinion.
Lmao😂
This is probably the funniest camping video I've ever seen. Especially “I forgot the toilet paper” 🤣 Best wishes from Germany
That Vespa GTS upgrade looks amazing! We sent you an email, take a look.
Cool videos. How do record audio whilst driving?
Love your videos. Same boots and I cannot get them under the shifter on my dual sport! Overkill for my GTS300. Sit nice and clean next to my wellies now (UK name for ?gum boots).
what speed app is that?
