Title: Who has the oldest scooter still road worthy?
Post by: Kansas kymco on June 16, 2021, 09:14:00 AM
Who has the oldest scooter still road worthy?  The oldest scooter I have is a 1985 Yamaha Riva 180Z with 2601 original miles. I know some  might have a old Vespa or Lambretta .

You have me beat…1996 Helix…mostly road worthy. Might be tough to beat the 1985.

An employee at my local hardware store rides a 1981 Yamaha Yamahopper, blue. I always comment on it when I’m in the store.

A guy in a local m'cycle club I belong to brought over a couple of late '50's Vespas from Italy years ago, and he and his wife still ride them.  He's meticulous about maintaining them, and it shows.  He also rides a big Honda scooter.  Not sure which model, but it's only a few years old and it is fast.

A person at the local ACE hardware rides a old Honda scooter from the 60's.

Three years from being able to get a antique tag for the Riva 180Z.
