After a pretty extensive search of Vespa's for sale, I had decided that The Scooter Shop in Orange, California had one of two bikes that I needed to see.  I was headed to So Cal already for the AMA Races at Willow Springs, and my two buddies were nice enough to divert a hundred miles or so South in order to see the bikes. We ended up jamming one in the truck and bringing it home.

 

There she is - the cherry P200E I'd heard about all the way up in Foster City	At The Scooter Shop, you pay before you play. Here co-owner Greg counts up the 100's.
Finally! The test ride I'd been waiting for.	The test ride was the clincher. I bought it.
