 |
|
Hi here are some decals i had made up from a local sign and van shop,
i used traditional vespa font called script by the way , and the Fred Perry Laurels , along with the Trojan Head , they prob mean more to the older guys amongst us, anyway i felt my 300 needed something special ! this matching set ( tool box and screen ) cost me £ 40 but the guy said the cost was due to setting up and further ones would be considerably less! anyone interested pm me ! my coulors by the way are silver and the screen decal is underneath looking through so you cant feel it . Jim  |

gotta smaller screen on my other scoot . double bubble on my r1 makes all the difference , im on the large side the small screen just blasts it in your face leaving you no choice but to bend double ! no good on long journeys but depends if you want looks or function , i like to think i have both

I have to disagree there, I've been on several long distance journeys since I fitted the small screen to my GTS, some in appalling weather, the only time I've bent double is for a little extra acceleration.

Each to there own, it's your scoot after all, you'll just need to learn to ignore all the granddad jibes

Nice one Jim you will be happy to have your scoot now! Away out a run this arvo hopefully without rain.
It's a tad chilly and windy but I do live in the north east of scotland
Does anyone use the floormat??? Was thinking of getting one to protect the floor, don't laugh but I've been hoovering the floor as to try and avoid scratching it! Well I do love my scoot, think I have re-named her Chips

cant believe how much scratches there is on the scoot! Makes me want to cry
Polished with auto glym and also coated with paint sealant can't remember the name off hand but a guy came to house and did it.

I've got Trojan heads on my gts, there ideal for covering scratches.

grit and sand gets washed under the floormat where it ascts like a nice grinding paste and scratches the bejesus out of the paint on the floor
