Welcome and hello,i had a sh300i,4 months and 2000 miles then some xxxxxx nicked it.Would I have another sh 300i.NO Because the lastest sh 125i,is better,but others on here,will tell you some thing else.

Hello and welcome to the site.
I have had two SH300i and really enjoyed them. Great handling and stability due to the large wheels, good economy and riding position. Storage limited but with the standard top box I found this sufficient for every day commuting.
I had many camping trips on mine both south and north of the borders and you would be surprised at how much kit could be taken with the addition of throw over panniers. If I am honest, I preferred the SH to the Forza 300 that I had. Make sure you test ride, if possible, because what suits one individual may not suit another.

Thanks for the replies. The Forza seems a bit too heavy and bulky to push about for me, hence the interest in the SH300. After 50 years on motorbikes, my old bones are saying 'twist and go' is the way to go. I've got a 9 year old Innova for town duties that is a joy to ride and maintain, so now I'm selling my bikes, a scooter with a bit more grunt for open roads seems very attractive. (Great site by the way.)

I've got a '15 SH125... and like it... then Honda go and bring out a new SH300...
The 125 suits my commute - but would of looked at the 300 if it was out then.
Welcome to the site - scooters are the biz.

And I bought the 1st sh 300i.And it had the worst seat I have ever sat on.Roadrunner,how you rode to Scotland,on it,but your arse must be better padded then mine.
