Default Well I am finally back on the road with this.....

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.
