Have had 2 bikers nod at me and probably regretted it as they got closer LOL. Anyone familiar with what it is? I am still out of a job and wanted cheap, realiable and pratical transport. It is a load of fun and doubt I will sell it when I do get onto something bigger

Did not expect so much attention from the birds ;)

for my sins I believe that's a "PCX", fits the bill of your requirements and it'll get you around, although after my brief foray into the scooter world I won't be revisiting it any time soon, but glade you're back on the road.

Cheers Mark.

Thanks Geo. Elbow not great. Have a new bone that has formed and stops me being able to bend my arm so can not touch back of my neck to good. The break was very serious and can not straighten arm all the way due to the way it has healed. Will have more surgery next year and get the bone cut down and plate and screws removed. The scoot is about the only thing i can handle for now but am grateful for that allowing me back on 2 wheels.

your back on two wheels mate so well done to you-in a sick way the appeal of a scooter interests me

Well to be entirely honest I would have got one anyway if i still had the sv as i too have always considered them for about town.

Still running it in but I know what it can do as I took the demo out on A1m and then twisty country roads. Quite honestly it is a lot of fun. It does have decent torque as you know and I really like the idle stop/start system that works very well. The combined braking system is also very effective using the left lever and only use the right lever when need extra stopping power. It just falls into bends and corners and should not be this much fun. I am impressed :)
