After admiring so many of everyone elses scooter photos for so long, I figured it was high time I posted my own. So without further ado, for your consideration, may I present my miles of smiles, my fun on wheels, my St. Tropez.

BEEEEautiful!

I love the helmet and goggles set-up. I am so wanting to do that but need to find the right goggles. What kind do you have?

Why thank you :) The goggles are Halcyon's from Classic Auto Parts in the UK. Hand made from nice soft leather (beware the cheapo plastic Asian knock-offs on eBay). The people there were very nice and helpful and I saved about 50% off US import prices by ordering directly from them.

They also sell lots of scooter mirrors etc for anyone who wants to do the Mod thing... :mod:

Thanks so much for that info. I have looked at goggles locally and they were just inferior junk. I need some like what you have for serious riding and obvious protection for the eyes. I am heading over to their site to have a looksee. Are you using a Nolan helmet by chance?

Nope. The one in the photo is a Z1R that came with my scooter. If you're interested in a retro look, you also might like to check out the Davida website. Some nice retro-styled photos there. They have some other goggle brands you can check out too...

Very swanky and smooth - have to admit, before I heard a Prima exhaust, the St.Tropez was my dream machine to get...

and a very great photo too
