Vespa Key Largo

Well now it looks like I won't have to trailer my ET4 for seven hours to Sarasota this year for a tune up. I saw this ad in the Citizen this morning telling us that Riva South has taken on Vespa products. I like Riva South, they act like a full time professional dealership and have been in business for a while. I considered a Burgman 650 and a Bandit 1250 before I bought the Bonneville, and I would have gone to Riva South to buy a Suzuki.That they are located only an hour and a half north of my house is a bonus. I'll give them a chance to show me what they can do for my wife's ET4 in the spring and if they treat it as well as Vespa Sarasota did last year I might even go back. Vespa Sarasota is a great shop and if Riva lets me down I'll be ready to trailer the Vespa back there.

  1. Dear Conch:

    You should get a BMW product. The nearest BMW dealer to you is in Manhattan. We could meet for lunch.

  2. I tgook a test ride on a G800st or whatever it's called- the one with the belt drive and full fairing, which for $12,000 plus one more thousnad for saddlebags seemed pricey and the riding position was a tad bit sportier than I wanted. I am not cool enough for an elderly K75. I leave them to others, more worthy.
