I want to thank Dennis at ScooterMD who was extremely helpful in coordinating shipping for this scooter, even though he barely remembered me from when I did the Pacific Northwest runs 10 years ago and didn't profit in any way from the transaction. Thanks Dennis, truly an asset to Scootering!
Also a big thanks to Bart H. of Seattle and Scott K. of Vancouver for their assistance.
And thanks to Byron for saving this piece of scootering history.
