I don't understand the fascination with the "colours" grey or black. They are so boring and horrible to keep clean. Mines white and really suits the design of the bike of the bike. The very dark or grey colours look great when new and in the showroom but terrible after the bike s have been used for a few weeks no matter how you try and clean them.

It does seem strange given all the accident press and signs about on our roads that the manufacturers make them in such hard to see colours, particularly in low light bad weather? Now I'm not saying I want a fluorescent yellow choice, but grey and black? Ours is white only two choices but wanted some chance of being seen....

I saw a bright orange kymco in Italy once looked great and always fancied the bright orange vespa gts they had one year.

Very true - one of the advantages of my Yellow mk3 Tmax is that it still looks shiny clean even when its filthy!!!!

Whilst being a good example of a modern scooter I’m not too keen on the leather interior pads assuming that’s them garnishing the front cubbyholes
