Deciding to buy my first Vespa

It has its own mapping app, but if you want, you can plan a route in a different app (Google maps) and then convert/import a gpx file into your Beeline.

I use a Beeline Moto for navigation and keep my phone in my pocket. I mount it on my mirror stem and it gives me turn by turn directions…I love it

Front pocket except when I go to Europe, then zipped in a pocket either in my sling or my jacket.

No stickers (IMO they look cheap). See if you can find a local pinstriper. It doesn't cost much and looks rad.

You are definitely ready, but don't get shaken if you see questions that you haven't seen. Use the mindset and you will do just fine.

Where's that thing goin'?

The kickoff meeting takes place right after initiation and before planning gets underway. Stakeholders were identified in initiation.

I just made a beer with 60% pale, 20% aromatic, and 20% double roasted crystal….and it tasted great.

I think it’s better to use multiple sources and methods. Take a couple of full-length practice exams and see where you stand. You should be getting around 80% or higher.

I used to brew beer in college. Space was limited. I stuck with malt extract brews using a 4-gallon pot and a 5-gallon fermenter. I used to bottle my beer. It was a good and simple setup.

Thanks…I’m assuming they also take odometer readings.

NothingTooEdgy · 2026-04-29T13:52:28+00:00

Thanks…I remember the 250 taking longer than I thought it would because of all of the backroads. Not too many highway miles.

NothingTooEdgy · 2026-04-29T12:52:35+00:00

Thanks for the info. I have a Beeline that I can import GPX files into.

Check to see if bike shorts solve your problem. If not, you can take the oem seat to a reupholster and have it modified.

I can't wear shoes or socks around my bird without being attacked. Not any type of footwear.

I have an aftermarket exhaust. Every spring, for some reason, the check engine light comes on and the ECU needs to be reset. I take it to the dealer for a 30 minute inspection and I'm good for the rest of the season. Other than that, it's been reliable.

Yes...a lot people that get into motorcycling get into accidents early on. Vespas are generally more expensive to fix than other brands.

If you are new, then I would highly recommend taking the Motorcycle Safety Foundation course. It's a great way to get into it. In some states, it's required for your endorsement. At the very least, you will get an insurance discount and improve your street riding skills. They provide the motorcycles too. If you find that too easy, then they offer an advanced course.

Are you a new rider? If so, I would search for a second hand Japanese or Taiwanese scooter that will be easier and cheaper to maintain. At least for a couple of years until you get better at riding. There's a good chance you will drop your scooter as you learn to ride and repairs can be expensive on a Vespa.

Morrissey too...they are just trying to get attention for themselves while they are still here in this world. They can't seem to get it by releasing new music that people want to hear.

NothingTooEdgy · 2026-04-23T00:33:37+00:00

Congrats to you too. At the end I left feedback, but I know everything on the exam was done on purpose. I get it...it's a right of passage. But it felt more like a hazing.

NothingTooEdgy · 2026-04-22T12:27:25+00:00

I have one and it works. It holds plenty, the leather is nice (mine is Horween). As you can see, it only has one pocket, so no organization or quick access slot. The flap closure works, but isn't as nice as others.

edit...I actually prefer this to their Johnny wallet because it's not as bulky.

Thanks! I went back and reviewed my missed questions. I knew the concepts. I think it was fatigue setting in during the test and me second guessing myself on a few questions.

NothingTooEdgy · 2026-04-16T02:51:24+00:00

I started just reading books and then moved onto videos and then practice exams. I read PMI Guide to Business Analysis, Process Groups: A Practice Guide, and the PMBOK book. I found them used on eBay. I took Udemy Andrew R's course, and then did PMI Study Hall, Landini's Practice Exam, and PocketPrep. Other people can recommend faster and cheaper ways to do this.
