I must say about the trad scene, some of you must give off some negative vibes, I go on rallys on my Mana, before that it was my Nexus, and before that it was my Italjet Dragster (one of the first 'Darksider's', not a founding member but there near the beginning). And not once have I been looked down upon.

Hi Bennyboy,
Expect the piss being taken out of you, I have just swapped to a maxi scoot after many many years of 'real biking' The first to ridicule me were my daughter and her husband, he is a recent convert to motorcycling after years of envying me!
Don't worry about them, they are the small minded individuals without the cranial capacity to understand it's not about what you ride, it's about the fact you ride!
Enjoy the buzzing around and smile when you fill it up with petrol!
Cheers
Alan

It was the same with the GTS's, but they got excepted a lot quicker than we did on Dragsters and Runners lol

Just realised we've semi-hijacked this introduction

10 years no gears

It's so Good to hear you guys say all this! So is anyone from around Hampshire and know of any good rides?

Hi Bennyboy
Welcome. I ride a Piaggio X10 350 had it a couple of months now, loving it.
There will always be small minded people who are essentially jealous so ignore them and enjoy your scoot.

To be honest I wasn't keen on it, gave me back ache after 10 minutes.
