Scooters in the Rose Parade
« on: January 01, 2013, 07:48:35 PM »
Just finished watching the Rose Parade on RFD-TV and saw several identical white scoots that looked like, well, Like 200i's escorting several floats. Anyone else see 'em that can identify them? Who supplied them and what was their mission?

Hi Karl, Yeah they are Honda Metropolitans. Honda is the major sponsor of the parade and they are supplied to the organizers to help keep the floats on their way. They also do crowd control and logistics during the event :)
