Well pleased for you spaceprobe. It looks fabulous and you have prompted me to find one to look at. As I won't find a 600 does the 400 feel the same ergonomically speaking.

Excellent

I don't always like matt black but it looks right on that.
Maybe they changed the geometry on the centre stand and that is why it is easier than the lighter bike? They certainly seem to have spent time on that type of detail.

Brilliant review Mister Spaceprobe! A gorgeous looking scoot and amazing value too! I cant wait to see one in the metal!
I appreciate it still needs running in, but can you feel an obvious difference in power/torque compared to the 400?
If you want to be incrementally better: Be competitive. If you want to be exponentially better: Be cooperative.

Very much so, it's a little slower off 0 but you soon realise that there is something much bigger under the seat. It's a nice sunny day here so I should get out on it.

Well lad, your new companion will be abso...lutly brill, treat her well :lol: i am sure that i am not alone in wishing you well, take it steady and watch that engine braking as i suppose its wicked, can catch you out on the slow corners :D enjoy your weekend riding, you got the scoot at the best time, you will still feel that you miss the 400 bit as soon a you look at the 600 a big grin will ease it completely.. safe ridin :D
I cant seem to remember.. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

Great initial writeup spaceprobe, although I should introduce you to 'the paragraph' one day so more people can read it ;)

Pretty good weather up here for riding today, I hope it's good there for you too!
