At least according to the chalk graffiti outside my apartment:

It makes sense that the scooter gets the heart, yes?

I like it. But if that mild-mannered graffiti artist thinks Buddies go "beep beep" they've never been Stebeled!

Not only is it appropriate that the heart goes with the scooter, but the chalk is color-coordinated, too!

Gracias!

I posted, which led to a discussion of what various scooter horns sound like. I mentioned that the Stebel in the San Tropez is probably louder than the motorcycle's horn. A lot of people said theirs sound more like, "meep meep." Most vintage/old Vespas and other Euro scoots horns that sound like someone strangling Donald Duck.
