Great picture. Great scooter. I had one of these.
Vespa means bee in English.
Its engine was originally an aircraft generator engine in WW II.
After the war the inventor converted it into a scooter. Italian ingenuity I guess.
Yeah, just as long as it's not the last image you ever see. There are sooo many of these things running around the streets of Rome I thought sure I'd see somebody, or me, get hit by one crossing the streets. :)
