That was its saving grace....doing (indicated) 90 on the outside lane of a dual carriageway on what looks like a pizza delivery moped!

Personally I probably could have just about lived with the fugly looks of the SH300, there is even something perversely attractive about it, as mentioned, in that a bike which looks like it was designed for a pizza jockey is actually completely different. But it was the lack of storage space I found the most negative feature, unable to hold a helmet. That's why they supply it with a top box as standard but I hate the look of top boxes. It certainly goes very well though, can't fault it there. But so does my Bev.

I bet you'd see one in a different light if you rode one. Failing that I had a Aprilia Sport City 250. Sold now but the thread is still there with some pictures of it. http://www.maxi-muppets.co.uk/forum/vie ... 20&t=13009" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
