Hey folks! I'm a new Vino user. I have put on about 400 miles on my new vehicle so far and cannot say enough good things about it...my favorite being the dirty looks I get at the gas pump from SUV owners when they see how fast I fill up and how little it costs !

I have a 12 mile commute to work each way and average about $4.00 a week in gas. (I used to spend over $40!!)
Anyhow, I wanted to contact the moderators (Sorrow?) to find out the password for the Vino 125 restricted site.

Thanks a bunch and keep on posting!

Just curious what how you hard you broke in your vino, and how it's been running since. If any problems so far which ones? =)

My commute is funny as hell I actually get to work faster then when i used to drive. Here in Cali you can blast up to the front of the lights and everything. I love everyday I wake up and get on the Scoot. I also see more and more people scooting to work. I love it!

Wow! sounds like a sure fire way to piss off drivers and get yourself clipped by a mirror. Around here the rednecks would def put you in a ditch and the cops would have you in cuffs.

good luck with that!

I wish lane splitting was legal in Florida. It sure would save a bunch of time.

I have to admit, during Air-shows, or the 4th of July at the beach I have been known to "illegaly" split lanes.... only when there is MILES of STOPPED traffic though! :o :---

Most people here in Cali are used to lane spliting I only have an issue with lexus drivers they see me crusin up and they block my line. the must have Scoot envy or something. Also I used to live in florida and I miss riding in really warm weather and not having to wear a helmet but I guess i'll take consistant waves over nothing but hurricane waves.
