I donated my BMW last year to my local PBS station because I knew I couldn't get much for a 36 year old tourer. I was tired of swinging my leg, over a tall bike, especially as I've gotten older and developed some knee pain. I did not want to give up riding, and realized that I'm not going to do the crazy things I did when I was younger, like ride with friends from the east coast to the west coast in four days, or ride in snow or hurricanes. I'm more sedate in my rides, mostly local and with a group of friends. I decided to get a scooter with enough power to do highway riding when absolutely necessary, and have a scoot that's dependable and comfortable for extended local rides. I wound up getting a 2007 Grand Vista with 5900 miles on it a couple of weeks ago. It's really a nice ride. The dealer I bought it from sold the bike to the original owner all those years ago, and has maintained the bike for that person, so the service records were complete. The bike came with a captain's seat - very comfortable, and a color matched Givi tail bag and tall Givi windshield. I've only been able to put about 100 miles on it since I got the scoot because the weather in the Cleveland area has been less than spring-like (snow showers expected in the next couple of days). But I'm happy with the purchase, and I'll be able to continue riding for pleasure primarily, with a few trips to go run errands now and then. Here's a pic of the scoot.
