I came out of Fry's Electronics to see my Atlantic 500 found a buddy.

Very handsome blue scooter.
Is "Fries" the best name for an electronic store?

Thanks, ha ha hadn't really thought of that.

The blue is such a handsome, refined, upscale color. Thought about one of those Piaggio once, the 500cc model. Very high tech steering system.

It is a leaning trike, isn't it ?
Far better than the flip right on top of you flavor !
*&%! things just don't throw you clear !

Sliding around on a servi-car, backwards, in a rain covered parking lot has got to be among the fun things of life, though...

Yep, leaning trike and perhaps the best of both worlds. Triked my last Goldwing. Hated that it wouldn't lean and got rid of it.

are those designated motorbike parking spaces?

Yup a parallelogram front setup.

Indeed right up front.

If I ever get stoved up and am challenged to hold anything up, I'd consider one. Have never heard anything negative about them except USA support/parts for Piaggio.

Found the 400 a bit heavier than I thought when my wife had one, they can indeed tip over at a stop, my wife dropped it & had trouble picking it back up.
Interesting "bike" though, not my cup of tea at the moment but not without it's merits.
Far as the Atlantic, beautiful bike but where do you get parts?

The sponsors of the Aprilia forum are a dealer in Texas and there is another dealer in Maryland. Both have online ordering and are good to deal with. It would seem Aprilia is blowing out old stock on certain items (body panels and such) and I can't believe just how cheap some of the parts I have bought for it were (complete dash panel from the handle bars down to the floor board for $20 and they had to ship it from Italy!). A couple of body parts (no longer made) I had to track down overseas and have shipped to me just because the scoot had some minor damage from being dropped by a previous owner on the left side. I figured if I can get them might as well do it now. As far as maintenance parts a lot are shared with other models so those won't be an issue.
