They're a lot smaller at the front than I thought they'd be!

To match the plug sockets at home!

You did notice that they aren't BMW C600 or GT ?

There are five C Evolutions on test/publicity work in London, I think two of them are being used to ferry german olympic skaters around so that could be them.

Long test of both models of BMW maxi in the new August issue of The Rider's Digest online at www.theridersdigest.co.uk Pages 99-119.

If you are desperate for an X10 500, I suppose you could always go across the sea to the nearest Piaggio dealer in France/Belgium/Netherlands and buy one there.

Er no, you can't. (Perhaps just like the BMWs?) They have delayed the availability date.

It was two scoots, I blanked out the face of the rider (which may be why it looks like a reflection) who had turned round to look at the idiot who had pulled out his blackberry at the lights to get a photo.

I guessed they were on some sort of promotion given the colour coding of the helmets to each other and the green of the bike. You can just see the electronic display of the dash which looked very nice, they also had a GPS in the footwell which looked neat but not the most practicable location I thought.

Really? Oh well, in principle, at some time in the future, we may be able to buy an X10-500 in Europe! Any reason stated for the delay??

Heres one , they are currently ferrying Celebs around London , very cool in the flesh

The GT and the C600 we rode

Not bad, looks like a kymco!
