I was there yesterday, was much quieter than last year, I wonder if the cold kept people away who would have normally ridden (that and nobody has any money to spend this year!)

Was nice to see the BMW scoots were both there with improved plastics, such a shame they're so bloody expensive.

Didn't think much of the new Burgman 650, it seems smaller than the old one (though they didn't have an old one to compare it too).

went today. fingers were bloody cold by time got there..but indoor heated parking ,lovely.
the yellow vespa is only a 125 ( shame ) an i think it said only 50 in the uk.. i was impressed to see the new t-max blackmax..very nice,but £8999 ouch!!!!!
did like the new burgman 650...looks smaller. shame the 400 hasn't changed an nether has the silverwing WTF there is a new one everywhere else so why do we have to have the old flipping thing still..

I went on friday and was very dissapointed this time. Not much for scooter fans as the likes of Sym, Kymco, Daelim, Lml, Cpi, Tgb, to name but a few were noticeable by their absence
I thought the Piaggio X10 & the new Vespa looked very tempting but nothing else really interested me and I havent missed a show since 1980 !

i was dissapointed with the fact sym and kymko were missing

not over keen on the x10 as it looks like someone heavy sat on a majesty and squashed it

the yellow vespa is going to be 7200 quid plus on the road cahrges and yes there will only be 50 over here

i can see them having 49 left as no one will pay 7 and a half grand for a 125

bearing in mind the gp 850 was only just over 8

HOW MUCH?? Is the effing thing gold plated or something???? Oh well, if you thought a new TMax at £8800 was a tad pricey, then you can console yourself that its an utter bargain compared to this Vespa!

.

With improved plastics!!!! I thought it was a Chinese built machine going by the quality of the plastics. Those plastics just looked cheap and nasty and no way should be on a £10k bike..

They were better than last year. I didn't think they were any worse than the competition and certainly no worse than my Xevo.

That's fair enough - they must have been really bad last year then....

The plastics on the dash and the glove boxes certainly were worse.
