Hi Hive Lovers
The Vespa is one of the legendary vehicles and can be called the "old motorcycle". Vespa is an Italian product and is still produced today, but mostly in automatic engine versions. As I recall, the Vespa has been around since the 2nd World War in the 1940's. It's very old, isn't it?
Despite being classified as an old motorcycle, there are still many enthusiasts and lovers of this classic motorcycle.They come from various backgrounds. In terms of age, from the young to the old. In terms of appearance, there are those who look like street children who are not taken care of, but there are also those who look neat and elegant. In terms of education, from those who do not go to school to those with higher education. Financially, the economy progresses from the lower to the upper classes.
Usually, Vespa lovers join in a community that unites them by not discriminating between classes. They always have high concern and solidarity towards their fellow community members, just like the values that live in a community.
In my opinion, what is unique and memorable about the Vespa community is that if a Vespa breaks down, other Vespa users will stop chatting and help each other. Sounding the horn when passing each other is a common thing for fellow Vespa users.
Vespa is usually kept in its original shape and engine in various communities, but many have been modified or are no longer original. The modification that is often done is to add a passenger seat on the side, as you often see in the movies of 2nd World War. It is called a "sidecar." The categories of Vespa modifications are original, extreme, and daily, which emphasize cleanliness and always look shiny.
I had the opportunity to watch a Scooter Jamboree from this motorcycle community in my city. However, I arrived late after the event was over because I didn't get any information from the start about this event. Unfortunately, today's event also rained and caused the venue to become muddy. They have to work hard for it. So, I just got a few photos of their appearance that I can share with you.
The most famous core value of the Vespa community is brotherhood. All are brothers forever. "As long as you can still crank the Vespa engine, then you are still considered young in the Vespa community."
