adark248 mea culpas:
Please forgive me for posting non Honda scoots :) On the top of my life goals list is owning a Stella. Cheaper, 2 stroke, and it comes in 5 sweet ace colors
.

Without doubt, the Stella IS a NICE machine. Borrowing from the Vespa PX series of yore, it sports a 'modernized' Mumbai LML 2-smoker with - I believe - electro-ignition. Trust me, I've had a jones for one of those bad boys - each and everytime I pass the local Ducatti/Stella dealer. :D

Too bad Kali has gone 2-smoke/*. But for the rest of the country, it's nice to see Genuine, once again, hauling out that East Indian freight. :wink:

I like the description on the website that says the Stella is still "too hot for California"

Yeah, that's a polite way of putting it. :wink:

To me the bike is ugly, but then again a lot of scooters (freeway capable) aren't usually the best looking.

It's going to go 4 stroke all the way soon enough as I'm sure the 2 stroke days are numbered unfortunately. The modernization is nice and with the added Honda quality I'm sure it'll be a fantastic product.

So take care of your current 2 strokers!
