Default Scoot with a difference

This fine set of wheels was parked up at Shrewsbury train station today. I have never seen a scoot with a Scorpion can. First time for everything I spose. Just look at that hanger, and the topbox

Bet it sounds god damn awful. It's bad enough having those "bee in a tin" sound amplified through a proper aftermarket exhaust let alone through one of them.

Its probably an actual exhaust for it.

See many Gileras bombing around the city with Scorpian rear cans... hell i even looked at one when i had my old scoot... Didn't bother though.

Besided, standard scooter exhausts rot quicker than a body in a compost pile, so being stainless its also better quality.

Please note that i don't think that actually looks any good though, it looks awful

I've seen a few vespa's with performance cans on them. Some of them are bloody loud! They tend to be smaller than that though.

Its a 4 stroke. Me sis has one, for sale. Been looked after (I only rode it once) but I can't remember all the details...

Back to the bike and can; horrid color what a waste of a good can.
