Just a follow-up on this thread, a bit over a year after the respray.
The paint has held up awesomely. The only spot where the paint didn't stick well was the hardware for the windshield mount (the ones in this image: http://i.imgur.com/vQaoy.jpg). The bedliner paint I used there flaked off, so I'd get the parts powdercoated if I was keeping the scooter.
Here's some pictures from earlier this week:
You can see the reflective stickers my wife put on it in this pic much better than in the others:
And here's what the windshield with the flaked paint looks like -- you can tell the bedliner didn't form a good bond with the metal, it flaked off anywhere the fasteners met:
I've dropped the price on the bike for spring, because my wife has baby fever BAD, and has absolutely no interest in riding anymore.
If you're local, come buy it. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/mcy/3688001786.html

I still think it's a sweet looking little scoot. The not-so-gloss white with the black crashbars look nice. If I were in Atlanta, I'd strongly consider a companion to the Agility
