I'm fairly obscessed with getting a Piaggio MP3 500, though I've never ridden anything before outside of 2 days of an MSF course and a ridiculous Silverwing I had for a day and a half I rode once and wanted to die from the weight and lack of balance). I live in the city but I want something I can go for multi-hour drives on if I want to (plus I want to get rid of my car since parking spots in Boston are so loving expensive).

Am I insane for taking this on? I've seen them in a few showrooms where I used to live but it'd be a special order from the Vespa shop here.

Yeah I figured it was mostly from inexperience, that and the place I lived was NOTHING but hills making everything worse to figure out. I figured however the third wheel would help considerably with stability, but I'm still not sure. I'll have to see with everything, because I'd definitely need to be able to do highway speeds.

Lordy, NOW I'm looking at the Vespa 300 Super or on another spectrum, the Buddy Blackjack. Both can get up there in speed pretty well (obv for the Vespa) but I have no way to compare in size since both the Genuine and Vespa shops are closed tomorrow. Arrghhh
