Radio 4's You and yours.

Listen to the bit about 34 minutes in. Its from the Bridlington custom show. "A scooter without gears, just a glorified moped!"

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00fnpsg/You_and_Yours_03_12_2008/

Try and guess how many scooterists interviewed hadn't even tried riding a GTS?

Thing is, why cant they just accept them? They dont have to ride em, just stop moaning about autos would be good!
Itll frighten people off, some youngster might buy a LX or S and go to a scooter club and they could laugh at him, and he will tell his mates we are all tossers etc and no new people will come... very sad.

I can remember having my brand new T5 kicked over at great yarmouth in 89 by a "traditional" scooter rider, some people have short memories!
