Hi All
Great site - looking forward to being a member.
I caught the two wheel bug 4 years ago - sick to death of the tube - so bought a Honda ps125 to commute to work.
After a while I wanted something more powerful for my trips on the A12, and so took my test a couple of years ago and am now on the Transalp. Great bike - but am finding it hard work in the stop start city traffic - also fuel consumption poor.
So - you've guessed it - want to go back to a scooter. Seems to be a great choice - Honda SH300, Beverly 350, X10, Burgman 400 (although Burgman looks quite pricey at the moment?).
Have a few test rides set up for this week so I'll let you know how I get on. If anyone has ridden one of the Piaggios - would love to hear what you thought of them.
Cheers
