Any one on STX that sells motor cycles or scooters?
Also, coming back on island to work for a few months and looking for a 4 door small pickup, Tacoma, Dakota, etc, 2008 or newer
Thanks

Don't get one made in China they are total junk. Don't know of any shops selling scooters or motorcycles.By one in Florida and ship it. Buy a quality product. One that has parts available, The ones from China are UN reparable and won't last on island.

You can buy a Honda Rebel on eBay cheaply...I've been looking into one of those for commuting. They're ubiquitous and indestructible.

Thanks, I'll take a look there
I was hoping that I'd find something on island so I did not have to mess with shipping and customs

Check with Clint & Dave at "Broken Toyz". They repair all makes and models and usually have a good handle on who is selling what on-island. Their shop is right next to CCT/Business World in Orange Grove. Finding a bike that is already here is all a matter of timing. In the end I gave up and bought one down from the mainland. If you need more details on that experience you can PM me. 😎
