Lucky you. I was looking for one to replace a friend's written off Mojito. Never mind, just ordered a new one for £3200 on the road. White one with the 300cc engine. Should go like shit off a shovel as it weighs only 150kg.

Cool. I hope you like it.

Couldn't tell you miles per gallon but can tell you it's very efficient. You get a lot out of a tank.

That mpg is about what I get from my Quasar engined scooter on a 27mile mixed roads commute.

I picked it up on my into work this morning. Felt really odd after the BMW and Tmax. Couldn't put my feet behind me or forward. Felt Like I was just sitting on the toilet! :lol: Got used to it very quickly though and was soon blatting through the London traffic. Punchy little things aint they! Certainly a lot more grunt than my old 250 Leo! Early days yet but after the first quick ride I'm impressed with its abilities round town. Its how it copes out on the A roads that will decide whether I keep it or not.

Looks good, did you get your insurance ok with it being a Cat C?

Yes, they always accept cat c/d bikes just payout less should you claim.

Have you managed to find a manual online anywhere per chance?
