    Just took delivery of the bike! What a gas to ride. Then the rains came and I had to high-tail it home. Right now I have a big grin on my face. Thanks go out to Caps Bicycle New Westminster for letting take an extended ride on their demo bike. There is no way I would have felt good about...

    Yes, the Vespa store told me much the same. Max 40 Cdn bucks per year. How about your range. How far are you getting on a charge?

    Hello Dfstarman. Congrats on the Wi-Bike. I am going to check out my local Vespa/Piaggio dealer tomorrow. The Piaggio website says you get 24 months of gps network included. Do you know how much it would cost after that? Thank you.
