Not sure why the negative press. They made a profit of 26 million euros (I don't see that cool looking Euros key on my keyboard, dammit). Any company making a profit of more than one dime these days has my respect.

Lloyd did his part when he bought the 500cc "Leaner."

OBTW, found a drawback to the three-wheeler. Lloyd ran over a piece of glass. We plugged the left front to get him home. I googled same size-brand-model tire. Closest retailer we found was in the UK...

Pulled the tire and plug-patched it from the inside instead of replacing it for now.

I just checked with San Jose BMW, they currently have 4 of the proper tires in stock for the 500 MP3.

Turns out, they are one of the biggest Vespa/Piaggio dealers in the US.

Call and ask for a "Deans Deal".
