The most common, and most lovely, of the Piaggio line.

I bought this bike from a man who had lace painted the cowls for his daughter in the early 70s. (Other than that, it is all original and unmolested.) She rode it to college classes before it was garaged for the next 14 years before I bought it, and another 3 before I took time to work on it. (Scooters are patient.) Believe it or not, this bike will spend its winters in the living room.

It had last run in 1973 before my pal Jay took on the task of cleaing it up and making it runnable once again in the spring of 2000. When it was ready, we went out for a ride, each of us on a VBBs, on a weakly sunny Sunday. We were treated to wind, wind-driven dirt, rain, and slapping large wet snowflakes in the space of a half hour. But it was a delight, nonetheless!

Love those lines.

So clean you can eat off of it.
