He used to ride his blue 76 vespa around Hollywood in the early 80s.
It probably looked like this.

“Desi and Izzy met in Hollywood when Desi approached Izzy believing he was a member of the band Hanoi Rocks. They fell in love, moved in together and sold drugs to support the band. Desi, a dancer and choreographer, began stripping at clubs in Hollywood as a way to support herself and Izzy's musical interests. She brought her club act to Guns N' Roses gigs and never failed to arouse the audience with her dance number to the Rolling Stone's, "Jumping Jack Flash." Her relationship and affiliation with the band ended when they signed with Geffen Records; she was underage and they wanted to avoid potential legal liabilities. Tom Zutaut also knew she was the one supplying heroin to the band.”
