      Like Steve, I find your videos entertaining. Vespa... motorcycle... it's all about the riding. I'm coming up on 58 years of riding, have owned 30-something bikes (mostly motorcycles, some scooters) and for decades, I have called them all "scoots"... yeah, a bunch of Harleys, and each one was "a scoot." Keep riding, keep posting... they're all "scoots."

    Sad to see the Vespa go.
    But ”The Bug Show” is a great idea!
    At least as long as you keep the humour (and those asides in yellow).
    It sounds more interesting than the ”oh, I’m an older driver now” stuff that you’ve got going in the other channel (and I’m even older).

    As young I liked to drive motorcycles but it was cold. I recall to sittin in bathtub to get my knees warm againg. Bad feeling of knees cold iside of them! Not anything like that with a Vespa. Perhaps you shall get that new "bigger" 310 Vespa GTS ;-)

    So here is my idea. You'll trade one of these motorcycles for another scooter (garage space fixed) and get yourself into the 2025 Cannonball. I'd love to see you getting ready, riding in it, and watching you get your "touring" bug itched.

    Did not like the triumph. Its comfortable and capable but also very boring.

    Was the Vespa just not enough? Since you mentioned wanting to tour, was it just too uncomfortable for those longer rides?

    • @itsthebugshow
      @itsthebugshow  3 місяці тому +4

      It's not so much that it's uncomfortable, it's just not built for it. Hard to bring enough luggage for extended tours... Nearly impossible to ride off road. Not the greatest experience riding on freeways, and that's always a possibility when on extended trips.

      I considered it, but wanted the flexibility of having something more offroad-capable. i have a ton of opportunity to ride really nice forest roads and BDR routes, etc near where I live, and I've so far really enjoyed riding offroad.

      The other thing is... For whatever reason, I enjoy being up higher. I've even put the seat on the Rally Pro in its high position, and I'm really digging it.
