Damn, I don’t even remember writing that 17 years ago! Nice looking scoot. How did you kill the battery?

I don't think it was charged when they delivered it so I went out and got a 1 amp battery tender and so far so good through a blizzard in Minnesota

Okay, it’s probably more of a thing to do with different decades than anything. Back in the 60’s and 70’s, dudes would “dress up” their touring bikes with all kinds of auxiliary lighting, chrome bits, fishtail exhausts etc and hence the term “dresser” or “full dresser”. It just changed to “bagger” to mean a Harley touring bike. I’ll sometimes say dresser to my younger riding friends and get a puzzled look. But they all know “bagger” and “geezer glide” lol!

But, what you wrote stood the test of time.
