Hi,
Joined to try and see/learn a little about these big scooters as I currently ride a Kawasaki VN1500 cruiser but am hoping to trade it for a maxi Scoot at the end of the year.
Main use will be long distance touring in the UK.
Advice and opinions welcome !!

If you want to be incrementally better: Be competitive. If you want to be exponentially better: Be cooperative.

Hi and welcome. I had a similar Suzuki Intruder M1500 but seen the light with Maxi-Scooters. I bought a new Suzuki Burgman 650 Executive to also tour on. It's a great ride and lots of storage space.
