Naperville Illinois... first days of fall, beautiful weather, fantastic scooter to make it a perfect day.
Oh and the city hires graffiti artists rather than arrest them now... and sends me the bill :roll:

Cool backdrop for your PCX ... did all those people in the background come out just to see it? ;)

Very cool PCX near the artist's painting! I wish that all the graffitis were like that... :x :x

We have a winner!
Love the idea, love the mural of artwork he did. Better than sloppy random graffiti, anyday! Shay whitey looks "at home, homie"
(Please keep paying "those" bills :P)

We don't have these so-convenient motorcycle parkings over here, and there are thousands of scooters in the bigger cities... Congratulations to the traffic/Railway authorities! ;)

Don't point your front wheel away from your side stand. It's better balanced if the wheel is facing towards the side stand.

In "normal" circumstances, it won't matter. But on a windy day, busy sidewalk, etc... it's better to be safe than sorry.

Maybe in highly congested scooter countries they could have a special line of railcars running on the main line. Train pulls in, big side ramps opens up, 200 bikers drive on and then off to the city with your bike LOL.

I never considered wind to be a factor, but you know what... it gets dam windy in the windy city. It gets plenty windy when trains don't stop at this station o_O I might not leave my bike any where near this convenient cycle Metra rail parking. Thanks for screwing with my MONK! :lol:

It would be a great idea!!! The best of both worlds: scooter for the city, and train for the long distance :D :D :D :D :D

In countries without injury lawyers, you get crazy trains. Chief says he thought for sure he would see some guy on the roof sitting on PCX
