A "little" scooter

[gothitjulie]

My NTV is starting to look a bit long in the tooth, as am I, so, with all this in my mind I've done a terrible thing & bought a "little" scooter to do up ready as a replacement.

2002 Aprilia Atlantic 500 in silver

Other than the expected electrical repairs & a few things like a d**n good jetwashing, the main task is to obtain & affix dayglo orange flashes to the front fairings so it looks like a fat twin of the V65 Lario from the front. ;D

Looks to be a nice looking scooter Julie, and no slow coach at top end 100mph, Could use one myself for around town and leave the big bike to sleep on short trips.

I remember a scooter chasing me and Jan on our first trip over the water, God he was going hell for leather round Paris and left us standing, meet him again on the boat comeing back, he sure did not hang around, But we was overloaded and 2 up.............lol

ya, it's a big fat scooter monster, I'm tempted to go touring around Europe on it.

Think I'd better replace all the electrical cables before I use it, they appear to be the standard italian pasta standard (fragmentary, brittle, etc).
