Wow, a guy in Berks County and another in the Lehigh Valley. I am in Schuylkill County. It's like we have the makings of a local scooter club here!

🤔🤔🤔🤔 although I'm only going to be in PA for another year. But once I get my AK I'd be down to at least meet for a ride.

I always wanted a scooter growing up. I got a ride on a Honda Elite when I was 13 and wanted one so bad. As I turned 16 I realized it wouldn't be practical as my first and only vehicle due to winters and rain. So I eventually got a car (4 years later) and forgot about the scooter dream. Cut to 2019, I'm 44, married with a nine year old daughter. I decided, I'm getting a scooter! Ended up with a 2018 Piaggio MP3 500, got my motorcycle license and I was off. In the two years I've had it, I use it for everything. Fun rides, grocery runs, commute to work, running errands. We went from 2 cars to just one and the scoot.

And I chose a scooter over a motorcycle because I just want to have fun, twist and go. My next scoot will be an AK 550, hopefully within a month as I just put a deposit down on the next one my shop gets in.

I just got back from my local dealership and put a deposit down for the next AK 550 they get in. They've had one so far and it sold in 3 days. I haven't been able to find one in stock within 300 miles of me (Berks County, PA) to see or sit on. But I know I want it, so I pulled the trigger. They have no idea when it will be in, but the old guy who does the orders thought it should be within 30 days. I'm crossing my fingers. Now I have to say goodbye to my first scoot and sell it before the new one comes in. It should cover more than half of the cost of the AK 550. But good luck to you, I hope you find one.
