So after a surprise purchase of a brand new Corazzo shop jacket (THANKS MIKE AT SCOOTERWORLD!), I find the decorating urge in me is unleashing itself...
To that end, anybody know of any good place to get any cool scooterish patches?
Scooterdave, I'm lookin' at you

scooter.net has pictures of rally patches. I don't know it that helps.

The best thing to do is to start attending scooter rallys. That's where you can begin to collect patches.

Scooterworks and
Motorsport both have pretty good selections. There are also usually quite a few on eBay.
I'd suggest not wearing any rally patches for rallies you didn't attend... Some scooterists really look down on that.
My faves:


And if you ride a Series Italia, you may be able to get away with this:

Hey, your first patch should to be the Mad Toto club patch (assuming you don't already have it).
Your next one ought to be a KC United patch (come see me and I'll be sure you get one, and you can then buy Max a beer or give him $3).
Oh, and you also are going to need this little gem:
If you join the club for the Mad Toto patch, the Tornado R'Alley III patch free when you come to the rally next month.
Finally, you can get more patches at Scooter World KC.

Can't wait to start adding rally patches from this summer! Here's a link to the patches n pins page at Scooterworks. This is not an endorsement, because I have no clue as to how reliable the company is.

I have the pin, but not this patch...

I just found out that "scooter trash" is an MC term that has nothing to do with scootering.

They're not happy enough with their own lexicon—they have to use the word "scooter" too?! I'm all for taking this and making it our own.

If you do a search for
Code: Select all
(astroboy,"astro boy","mighty atom") patch
you'll find a couple others.
In the anime patch department, I really want a FLCL "P!" patch but can't find one anywhere!

I need the sticker for my SS180, although the patch would be cool, too.

I've never seen the stickers for sale, but have heard that they've been handed out at conventions, expos, and so on. Stickers and decals are fairly cheap to make, though (let me know if you want a P! vector graphic)... patches, not so cheap I imagine.

I have been collecting them for 20 years. Depends on what kind of patches you are looking for. If you want cool rally patches goto eBay. Do a search for Paddy Smith. Those are the more desired rally patches. There are a few Vulcan Scooter Secte patches on there. You will find it using that search. Those are rare and there are only a few left.
eBay is your best bet for unique ones that not many other people will be wearing. There are quite a few very cool & unique generic scooterist patches there.
Hit up your local motorcycle shops. They usually have decent patches as well. Call a scooter shop on the other side of the country from where you live. Most shops will carry patches and they will be unique from the ones around you.
I can tell you where I would never buy a patch from... But, I will restrain myself.
Since this picture was taken I have added 4 or 5 more.

I just put the Vulcan Vice City rally patch on my flight as it pretty bad ass. I was not at that rally. I doubt anyone is going to look down on me for wearing it. Nor do I really care one way or the other.
If you like a patch put it on.
