"GS style" center rails... I couldn't resist!

I've always loved the way the Vespa GS had the center rails instead of the floor mat.

Vespa GS example

So I revived my old left over floor rails and end caps and ..... Gasp.. drilled holes in my scooter!! I drilled and tapped it ;) ie.. I created a threaded inner for a screw... wow this is sounding dirty...  So I ordered extra floor rubbers ( Im not even trying!! It just sounds wrong!) and I polished my old rails and end caps till they shined.  The old ones Vs. the new ones.. then new ones are bigger, but it actually works out good since I have less room to fit it all in the center area. On a GS there is actually a larger space in the center and less on the sides (or lower) sections. All in all it looks pretty good I think!

License, Badge, Floor Rails, Clock/ Speedo

So after a long row with the California DMV, I finally got my scoot registered and plated!  I also successfully earned my MC license. I had an issue with my VIN on the body not being readable, So I had to go the CHP, another trip and appointment. I used chalk to fill in what was apparently unreadable. Also the first lady at the DMV didn't like my odometer, ( did have a traditional looking speedo in there, albeit- it was a Photoshop/ and Kinko's.. job). The CHP officer told me it was fine and waived it off :)
