I don't know. I guess, to each, his or her own. I have a number of scooters, my favorite is the shovelhead, although the cast iron jugs hate this heat. They don't like it when it gets above 60 degrees, love it down around or below zero. Just the same though, riding is more risky than it used to be, and I have to admit that I see about half of the drivers with cell phones glued to their ears, and a good amount of them texting while driving.
