    Don't worry about the weather, a scooter would be perfect in Melbourne. Take a look out when the weather is average - most of the bike riders wuss out and leave their bikes home - while the scooter riders head out in anything. The only time to look out (and it applies to anything on two wheels) is when it rains immediately after being dry for some time. The water brings up all the oil and crap that has been sitting on the road, and it makes it quite slippery. Learnt that the hard way.

    I'll be looking for a Vespa S 125 come spring time.

    And you lucky Melbournites can even park them on the footpath.
