Maxi or mini muppet

Post by macp »

So another thought as I was riding into work am I a maxi or a mini muppet. Apologies if there is some kind of explanation of the guidelines behind what constitutes a maxi or mini.

Actually, there's been a debate on this topic before. Debates are fun, but rarely change minds. If you've ridden big bikes and you've settled into a 200cc scoot, you're whatever size muppet that you choose to be.

Midi?

Other scoots in the same bracket could be: X7, Elyseo/Elystar, Hexagon, Majesty125, S-Wing 125. Probably more too.

Not real big stuff with >250cc, but physically smaller scoots that are not as titchy as the typical moped or 125, like Zip or PCX.

But then , who cares?
