hi there, you get used to the scoot... and be more relaxed riding with fun thrown in between... being in control and forward thinking is what its all about.. you will be able to use full throttle ... which is fun and be in control... enjoy :D :D

you get used to the scoot
lol when i first got on it i tried to put in first gear and the next couple of days i thought the rear brake was the clutch so i had few rear end slidey moments. only 27 and the insurance was more than my kawasaki zx9r. but 170 quid a year aint bad really. living in brierley hill west mids so anyone close who wants to go on a few ride outs give me a shout

Welcome mad
You will now turn into the invisible man to other sportsbike riders and to motorbikes in general !

And the few mates you have left will wonder why you have suddenly turned extremely gay! :lol:
