It's a 600cc, but I'm taking it easy at the moment as it's only 3 weeks old.


Goodness is that where the keys went? Spent 10 minutes looking for them

Fantastic boot space, takes both our full face helments or 3 bags of sainsburys shopping.

Am looking to customise it with some graphics - quite fancy a she devil.

Hey there, the more the merrier!

The only problem I can foresee is that you won't know whether the engines running or not. It's a Honda scooter and will be in amongst several V twins with loud cans. You'll try to pull away with the engine switch off lol!

You sure wont hear the engine if your near mine! Nothing in my exhaust at all. Will be nice to have a look round your bike though, not used to big capacity scooters

Exactly why I have considered a super scoot. But they are soooooo expensive!!!

Creoso Nantwo!

They are very practical for a bike/scoot mish mash and on one or two occasions i've been shown up by one of these off the lights in the morning commute, so i for one wont be laughing at it.

Might wanna sit on it tho, looks very comfy.

There was one in the queue for the ferry when I went abroad a month ago - rode it from wherever to Harwich, ferried to Esjberg in Denmark, rode up to Sweden or somewhere up there (with bar muffs on) to a rally, then rode back and caught the same ferry we did to England.

I thought the 600 miles we did over the weekend was pretty good, but he must have done it each way
