noobie here

Post by biggestelk »

Hi. Just registered and hope to spend some time here amongst those who seem to like scooters (unlike most other UK road users).
I have a Yamaha Xmax YP 125 but am looking to upgrade fairly soon, so will scout the fora for thoughts!
Cheers,
biggestelk

I've had a quick blast on an X10 and a sit and pootle on the Honda Forza 300. Size wise the Honda felt better and I can stretch my legs out on both more than my Xmax. I'm still restricted to 25kw/33bhp until September next year, but both these bikes are within my licence category. I need more oomph for overtaking and comfort for longer journeys. Just need some money now! :-)
