Sold my Beluga, bought a 1985 Honda CH150 Elite

(not mine, this one is much prettier, and I don't have the pod).

Drove it all summer with zero issues, fixed my own punctured tire all by myself and fixed my clogged carb with some help. I was turning into a right little mechanic.

Then I was involved in a little mishap. A combination of wet and ill maintained roads led me to be ejected over my handlebars and landing on the pavement.
Result, 2 broken wrists, bruised knee, bruised sternum, wounded ego.


My scooter, being the robust little bastard it is, took almost zero damage I have to replace the headlight (my high beams don't work) and a single screw.

If I was home right now, I'd seriously consider buying this one:
RIVA 180

Or this one: CH150

Hell, this isn't a bad deal either, atleast not around here: Vino 125

I have a Honda CH150 and I loved it until recently.

Question though,

I was recently in an accident on my scooter and I have (mostly) recovered. The weather is starting to get nice where I live and I am considering getting back on my scooter, but I am terrified. Any tips to get me back on the road without being terrified?
