Intriguing! One of those videos that seems intent on not showing the things you want to see!
Am I right in thinking that it looks as if its been shrunk compared to its big brother? Same styling but smaller! Looks like normal small-scooter mechanical bits as far as I can make out.

Oh, that's a nice looking scoot Mr G.

Yes, it does look like a mini X ADV on the one hand, on the other, it looks like a dressed PCX125. I think you're right about the small-scooter mechanicals.

Yes, so the question about this must be 'Why?'. At least the big X-ADV has some off-road pretensions, but this is effectively only a restyled Forza - and I prefer the Forza's styling anyway!

I'm lying here on the sofa Mr G, looking at the Youtube vids of this ADV150 -this is my Saturday morning! - and I love the looks. It's far better looking than the Forza, PCX and my Nmax, unfortunately. Mind you, my Nmax is roomy and comfy for longer distance riding than I would ever have given it credit for; a little under-powered though.

I'd love the XADV 750 but won't be pushing all that weight around. Perhaps Honda might introduce they're 300 ADV but this would then have to push the Forza aside or sit alongside it.

I feel a cuppa and grilled, cheese-topped scones are in order......

I like it, it's got "proper" mirrors you can probably fit mirror extenders to and it looks good.... ;)

But unlikely to come to UK as a 150 (?), a 300 would be fine.....
