Got a St Tropez instead of BlackJack

Just to clear things up here....I posted I put a down-payment on a BJ last week, which i did. It was a transfer from another dealer, but by the time my dealer called him the bike was sold. My dealer found another BJ 3 states away, but he also had a St Tropez on his floor. He gave me such a great OTD price on it I couldnt say no! Now i have a 150 AND several hundred dollars in my pocket to boot!!! Drinks on me! And as a Tarheel fan the color scheme on the Tropez is great. Peace out!

As a fellow St. Tropez owner I can confidently say you've got a lot of fun miles ahead! Congrats!

Congrats! My partner has the St. Tropez as well. He gets a lot of compliments on the color scheme and it looks great with the chrome accessories. He has the crash bars, windshield, and some chrome and black handle bar grips. I bet it would really look nice with the Prima exhaust! Enjoy and ride safe.

Great idea to chrome it out...Im taking off the stickers first, and maybe place a Tarheel sticker or two on it if they arent tacky.

Just by the way... if anyone in West Michigan is looking for either a BlackJack or a St Tropez, a dealer here has one of each on their clearance-showroom floor for under $2K (fees probably not included).

Congratulations!

Cant remember what that models color looks like, how about posting a photo, also let us in on the price you paid.

I paid $3100 out the door even though they had it listed for $2500 before tax, fright, shipping, predatory, tire tax, and whatever fee lol. All that matters is you OTD cost which is hat I always insist on over the phone.

Enjoy and be careful!

That price would beat mine, but not by much. Plus the owner/dealer of Vespa of Charlotte(Mike) is one good, cool guy. Likes to talk scooters and will pick up on a conversation you start about ANY scooter in there and he knows his shit. Anybody around Charlotte who wants a scooter should look up Vespa of Charlotte. Plus its on a nice side of town. Cool bars, coffee shops and a great healthfood store.

Cant tell you out the door....between me and him....I have paid attention to the forum.....look, the deal I got was close, and I have a great dealer at VESPA OF CHARLOTTE . Also...there is my cousin, Rubrick. He stands in the corner and pisses himself. Anyone want to take him on for cheap? REAL CHEAP . I need more $......

Big clunky bullshit bikes piss me off. Give me a rocket.So easy to handle.

Consider the black chrome - really more of a sporty look!

Here was they way mine ran for the first 10,000 plus miles...

It wasn't until we passed 10,000 miles that we started to tinker with it.

Fine choice my friend. Would have loved to have had a st. tropez myself, but the deal I got on the 125 was just too awesome.

Boy that ST. Tropez sure looks nice and with all the dress up bits and accessories you can really make it your own.
