Santa Claus wishlist

Hey all,
New to scooting. Just got a Buddy SI. I have a full face HJC helmet and I got a great Tourmaster armored textile jacket. My in-laws are asking for my Christmas list and am at a loss.

What products/things could anyone suggest that pertains to scootering that I could put on the list? <----very poor sentence

I think I'm going to ask for the oil temp gauge that I just saw posted on here.

good gloves and some over the ankle boots, etc.. think of protecting you first, then go for the extra 'goodies'.

you might ask for one of two differant face shields for your helmet, a tinted one for summer days and a yellow for night (if legal in your area)

If you don't already have one, a portable air compressor is something I use all of the time on my bikes.

THANKS for the replies

Keep 'em coming!! Maybe this will help other scooterists in the same boat.

Already have the air compressor. I like the shield idea. Can prolly weasel the boots and gloves from them before Christmas.

A disk lock and/or chain lock if you don't have one already. Keep your baby safe! Someone mentioned heated gloves and I've been meaning to check that out. Cold weather in PA so something like that could come in handy (if u decide to ride well into the cold season)

A Battery Tender for when winter really sets in and you can't ride.

A heated garage to keep your scoot in.
