Turn signals finally improved!!!
Columbia Scooters has finished the development of a gadget that will make your Kymco People 50 / 150 or Bajaj turn signals lights "ON" all the time, as running lights. Then when the signal is needed they flash "OFF'.We invented this because of the dark commutes here in Portland. and what a difference!!


Check out columbiascooters.com for more images and information!



CRAZY SALE!!! The remaining Argos we have are another $500 off!! Out the Door for $1500!! We have to make room for new models. Come in and test drive! Get one for the whole family!


New winter hours!!!! Check the events section! Basically we're just closed on Sundays now


Remember this site is a great place to “meet and greet” like minded people. It is your scooter community, use it.
