I'm highly partial to the '62-'65 Vespa VBB2 bikes. Badged as "Vespa 150", they were the quintessential '60s Vespa. They're neither quick or as unique as other Vespas of the era. Still, I love the lines and the handy glovebox in the left rear cowl.

'74 Vespa 125 Primavera (VMA2)
'81 Vespa P200E (VSX1) (2)

'84 Yamaha Riva (CV80L)
'85 Honda Spree (NQ50)
'86 Honda Gyro S (TG50)
'87 Honda Elite (CH80)
'89 Honda Elite E (SB50P)

I'm pretty fond of the Aero of any engine size and all the 4 stroke stuff.

:love: -my favorite of all time is the 1985-1987 Honda Aero 50. In my opinion, the NB50 Aero 50 is the best looking, all around best scooter EVER made!! :love:

How far back do we go? My best friend had an old Cushman Husky while I was growing up.
