My Goggo is a 150cc, a 1954 model and still in the original paint. Here's a link to a web site with a few shots of my bike: http://web.thecreeper.net/pics/gogo/ I think photo #6 and photo #16 capture the color best, it's a shade darker than "sky blue". Don't know what other colors were ava...

I'm located in San Francisco, California and a long-time dream of mine was fulfilled last week when a Goggo roller came to live in my garage! My Goggo is a 1954 150 Standard, a nice unrestored example that c...
