Do you fly a flag on your scooter? Why or why not?

Post by Whimscootie »

Be it a homemade one or a motorcycle style flag, are you flying one for safety/visibility or other?

Why or why not?

Smart? Cool? Dorky? Fun?

I don't fly one as it would be dorky and uncool.

I have a 5 foot stainless steel antenna from Radio Shack attached to my rear rack. I currently have a Tiger Tail and a small b/w British pennant, but have more on the way. It really waggles around when I ride, so I feel it is great for visibility.

I have a homemade flag made using a wooden dowel that I painted to match Stella, I printed the flag with my logo and pretty much just use it at rallies

As in the awesome website where those who ride for adventure come together.

Check it out. Especially the battle scooter forums.
Neat bunch.

You can get flags, decals, etc. For you and your ''adventure scoot''

I'd enjoy flying the stars and stripes on my scoot on national holidays like July 4, Memorial Day. Veterans Day, etc. To me, flying the flag daily looks cool on Harleys but not so much on other makes.
