Yo! Name is Ramon, riding around the Santa Clarita Valley, CA on my 2011 Vino 125. Picked it up new in late November and been riding since mid-December. First scooter, loving every minute I'm riding it. I was originally going to pick up a new Ruckus, but decided to go with the Vino for the bigger engine. LOVED the bare look of the Ruckus, but I'm glad I got this as my first scooter. The Ruckus can be a project later on in a few years. Haven't done any mods yet, but going to start small and replace all the rear lights and then take it from there. Need to order that cup holder from Scooter West also. Also - Does anyone know where I can find mirrors that would fit the Vino? I'm coming up empty... A few (boring) pics, nothing you guys haven't seen before, haha.

A few (boring) pics, nothing you guys haven't seen before, haha. Welcome Ramon. My Vino is the same color as yours, there's some pics a few pages back. The Vino is fairly unique as far as scooters go in that it has traditional handle bars. Any mirrors you see advertised that fit a 7/8" handlebar will fit the vino. What they WON'T do is thread into the holes that exist on the control boxes that clamp onto the bars you've got. Also a word to the wise, the mirrors are reverse threaded in those holes so take it easy on them when you're taking them out. I busted one of the aluminum boxes and had to order a replacement. A rookie mistake for sure, but it cost me ~$35 bucks. Luckily it wasn't any more pricey. Glad to have another vino, and glad you're digging the bike. Its a fun little ride. If you haven't yet, post a pic in the odometer thread. I need to drop an updated one in there. - Spool

Still haven't done anything to the Vino since money is tight, but you better believe I have a Word file going with everything I want/need, haha.
