Bad news on the parts front. I learned from a dealer today that Piaggio is no longer supporting bikes over 7 years old. Several parts I tried to order are no longer available, and apparently won't be in the future. Considering the longevity of these machines, I think this is a poor move. Maybe it is their desire to sell new bikes, but if you can't support them after 7 years, why would you buy one? I just hope I can keep the old ones around running until I choose to no longer work on them.
