There is a good chance that you’re on here, or that someone knows you. Your vespa is NOT a hog on the open road… You don’t look like a badass when you ride your vespa like this: ![http://images.streetchopperweb.com/features/0604_stcp_10_z+2006_cuda_custom_chopper+riding_right_side.jpg](http://images.streetchopperweb.com/features/0604_stcp_10_z+2006_cuda_custom_chopper+riding_right_side.jpg) (Dude rides with his ass hanging off the rear of the passenger seat, his head down and his feet ALLL the way forward. It looks super hard to ride, and dude seems SUPER sketchy on turns.) You might say that he doesn’t care what people think… maybe not… but he is trying pretty hard to look like a badass as he mean mugged the shit out of me while i rode by on my bicycle… For reference, the correct Vespa posture. (complete with abused wife on the back taking her to the grocery store to buy egggs for your mother-fucking omlette) ![http://www.chicagoist.com/attachments/chicagoist_alicia/vespa.jpg](http://www.chicagoist.com/attachments/chicagoist_alicia/vespa.jpg) Lastly: Vespas are for FGGTs. ---

Could he have been just fucking with you? I would find it pretty difficult to look hard on a moped… This jackass drives around west seneca on a MOPED leaning around turns and shit. He blows. ---

When my brother used to live in England he would laugh at all of the hard asses that drove scooters. Once in a while a Harely would drive by and all of the hard ass scooter boys would act like little kids on Christmas morning.lol ---

> [@EvilJay](#): > > Could he have been just fucking with you? > > I would find it pretty difficult to look hard on a moped… No. He really has that riding posture all the time. I have seen him at least 6 times around buffalo. Dude must picture himself on a stretched chopper w/drag bars and FWD controls. ---
