This collection consists of FOUR decals all printed with the official logos of the Scooter Cannonball on the highest quality vinyl. (The sizes vary, depending on the shape – see the attached images.)

The retail value of these decals is $2.50 each. The decals are available to supporters of the SC for ONLY $8.00 – which includes First Class Mail in the U.S. Please place your orders through the link to Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/396790657161

Scooter Cannonball Decals – FOUR Decal Collector Set

Help Support the Scooter Cannonball!

The Scooter Cannonball is on NOW. You can support this event!

The Scooter Cannonball is a competitive, multiday, point-to-point touring rally for street-legal vintage and modern scooters.

The Scooter Cannonball adds the challenge of a transcontinental rally limited to scooters with motors with 300cc or lesser displacement – or minimoto cycles with smaller than 150cc motors.

The SC organizers emphasize, “It is not a race. It's a test of endurance and navigational skills.”

While many participants participate for the experience and satisfaction of crossing the country, many others are definitely “in it to win it”!

The Scooter Cannonball is held every two years, taking place over eight to 12 days, beginning one coast of the United States and ending on the opposite coast. There is no monetary cash prize or reward for finishers of the event. The title of “Winner” is entirely honorary!

I wanted to install this windshield on my - but it is limited to 7/8" hbars (and it would be terribly UNSAFE to modify it for the larger bars - DON'T try!)

BUT - this is the PERFECT windshield for minimotos like the

I wish I would have found this before spending MORE on the Honda Grom windshield! ($89 vs $155) The official Honda model limits you to the stock, quirky Grom hbars. PLUS, with the Rally shield you get added mounting points for GPS, phone, etc!
