I can only imagine that riding one requires an extra licence....a normal driving licence won't be enough!

Definitely a good looking ADV STYLE scooter with a good engine, 36 Bhp and 17inch front and 15inch rear set up.. wonder what it will cost?? Parts availability, reliability etc.

Mechanically, it's a Metropolis with the correct number of wheels so service and maintenance should be ok.

...and presumably a bit lighter! Though its still rather overweight....
The Metropolis is £9k, and the Pulsion (daft name!) 125 is £5k, so my guess this is going to be roughly £8k.

It's the next class up really, 400cc with 37hp instead of 330cc with 28hp.

Yes...it occurred to me after I posted that that its competiton was the ADV350 and they'd be crazy to pitch it too far above that. The ADV350 is surprisingly well priced, considering that many people (including Peugeot) charge £5k for a 125, so I guess Peugeot's room for manouvre is limited.

Agreed Mr grumpy if they ask circa 7k, it won't take many sales away from the adv plus where will it be sold? Dealer network resources??

I'd be interested for sure, really floats my boat! Bmw c400gt too expensive to service, adv 350 poor stocks, burgman 400 very dated, forza 350 poor feet forward.
