Something extravagant you bought just because

I love love love my scooter.

I have a buddy kick 125. My husband has a 150. We both need motorcycle licenses but it’s an easy test.

Technically, in my state if the scooter is <130cc AND goes <30mph, you don’t need a license. Otherwise you need a class M. We have streets that are 40-45mph and I wanted about that level of performance, so 150cc.

I might have even gotten the 300, but I’m hoping my son will ride this when he turns 16 and I don’t want his first bike to do 80mph.

My last two motorcycles were in the 120hp range, so this is a big step for me!!!

@NerdAlert The Genuine scooters are really cool. I think Vespa/Genuine/Honda is where it’s at.

Nice ride. I have a Genuine Buddy 125. I owned a Genuine Stella with a sidecar for awhile which looks like an old school Vespa. I personally wouldn’t get a low displacement scooter because sometimes you need the extra speed to get out of a situation. I topped my Buddy out at 69mph. Unfortunately, I’ve really stopped riding the last few years so I’m going to sell my scooter and my other motorcycle.

In my day, we called them mopeds.

Mopeds and scooters are different. You may not know the difference but all the scooter trash out is screaming at you, “It’s not a damn moped!”

It was not as much fun as I thought it would be. At only 150cc she had a hard time going faster than 35mph. The steering was different too. Instead of a lean, you actually had to steer. Takes some getting used to. It got a lot of looks and parking lot conversation though.

I’ve never driven with a sidecar but I can kind of imagine that. I definitely think the sidecar is for lazy afternoon drives. I’m picturing this with my boxer.

I went to the GMC dealer and traded in the Camry for the Canyon last night. 2022 Denali edition was screaming “Buy me T-roy”

Dang, and we haven’t even won the lottery yet!!!

a poor man went to church regularly and prayed to God to win the lottery.

Every wekk, “Dear God, please help me win the lottery, I will give to charity, I won’t be extravagant, but I will never be hungry again, please, God, help me.”

Every week for 30 years he made the same prayer

He finally dies, as poor as ever, and went to heaven. When he encountered God, he asked “Why did I have to have such a hard life, why couldn’t you help me win the lottery?”

to which God replied “you could have helped out and bought a ticket”
