(NBR) I Succumbed to the Scooter Succubus

Post by BuddyRaton »

Honestly...I did my best to resist (which wasn't very much) but I was seduced by this supernatural entity.

How is it that I can be happy for you and hate your guts at the same time? :wink:

Finding a decent, non-bodged Lammy is quite the score. Good luck!

Lock it up tight and love it with all your heart, that thing is SEXY! I love Lammy's, just dont have the funds or time for one. That scoot is just awsome! Congrats on your find.

Nice Lammy! Excellent choice of model as well.

I'd be jealous if I didn't know a few things about them. :wink:
At what point does a hobby become an addiction? I'm uncertain, but after the twelfth scooter, it sorta feels like the latter...

Seriously...I've lost count...

Seven mopeds ...that's still manageable...

I'll give you $100 for it. Maybe $150.

Are you sure you don't have a "scooter hoarding" problem? :lol:

Great score!

I love the color scheme too. Very envious.

Since we don't have a garage, 'vintage' for me is my '87 helix :P.

We have a local Lammy group/shop that churns out some amazing restored beasts. If only I didn't need things like food/shelter I could afford one after a few years!

Food and shelter over scooters? What's wrong with you! :mrgreen:

Seriously it is time to thin out the heard, I'll be putting 2 or 3 up for sale soon.
