They will order them in if asked, but it just doesn't happen at all often.
I have only ever seen one Silverwing in Aberdeen, a salesman told me they sell less than one of them a year.
Same goes for the Yamaha XMax, TMax and Majesty, not stocked and not big sellers.

I would do as above other wise the peeps on here who have never ridden either scoot will pull it to bits calling your ride a load of shit.
So you have to make up your own mind and ignor the twats on here who tell you it's crap. They are all moaning about the best ride they would like to see
from different companys but then rip into anybody who buys a bike THEY don't like or is different even thou they want different they dont want that differnt.
So once again the ball falls into your court

As you can read i am just about pissed off with all the Negative vibes this site is putting out in the last couple of months, it's no wonder so many have left..
I will be next i think....find the couple of groups on here that are the real thing and stick with them and screw the rest..
Just sayin..

Kayz1, I wouldn't worry too much about the differing opinions and comments you get on a website. This happens all over the net on forums and can actually be a positive even though it may not seem that way at the time. Diversity of opinions and disagreements of all kinds are part of life, and the internet and forums just reflects this. The trick is, to stand back and take it all in, then make your case. Or not! as the mood takes you. As a contributor of some standing yourself, it would be a shame to see you go. I'm a newbie still, but already I feel I know some of you quite well.

its why i left along time ago, people didnt like my ideas of blingin up me tmax, pipe n slipper brigade and derisory comments ensued n pissed me off no end, i spent a lonnnnnnnnggg time reading and searching the net for ages to help anyone with regards to all things tmax, had a bump n smashed me plastics, all fixed good as new and when i decided to sell someone always piped up is that the one ya crashed and bolloxed any chance of a sale up for me when it was cosmetic and the insurance company didnt even register it or categorise the damage, even then, i went on to spend over 3 grand on custom n tuning it and still the same comments, am 40 years old, not a 16 yr old chav, my bike was tastefully done and not over the top, in the end i got pissed off and been away for ages, i only come on now to stir me interest coz i fancy an integra and like to get all the info i can. End of the day, people can keep theres standard i dont care but i dont slag them or there bikes for it, just i like to be different, i mod everything i get, car or bike, i dont like standard n dont follow the crowd but its like 99% of forums i been on over the years, just takes one to spoil it and the rest either leave or join in or sit on the fence, al never be a sheep!

so, kayz, hows the integra!

"Opinions are like assh*oles - everyone has one."

"A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject."

The world is full of 'James Hunts'. The more of a 'James Hunt' they are, the stronger their opinion and the more desperate they are to validate it to others - an attempt to gain their interpretation of respect - something they may lack themselves.

I love that phrase. Who said it?

It's my interpretation of the many 'self-help' quotes.

so, is that a dig or am i missing a point?

It's absolutely NOT a dig.

The point, poorly made it appears, is don't let anyone make you feel "pissed off".

YOU are in control of how you feel - not them.

Those posts, and the many others like them, are what make this forum interesting and sometimes/often inspiring, it's just unfortunate that every now and then you have to filter the 'James Hunts'.

Chin up champ & keep up the good work!
