Same scooter spotting

Post by Drago »

So how many of your scooter models have you seen out on the road?

ie you own a T-max Mk3, how many other Mk3's have you seen whilst out and about?

For the first time today in over five years of ownership I saw another SYM GTS
with stacked lights! Very exciting indeed!

I have only seen one other Yamaha XMax400 on the road so far - other than the Demo at A2 M/Cs...

Look this is the NE..seeing any other maxi of any sort is a major occasion! Let alone the same model or the same vintage!
I did once spot another TMax near Redcar...but that was nearly 10 years ago!

on my trips from orpington to chistlehurst or farnborough or petts wood or sidcup or welling or mottingham that i do daily, i see quite a few scoots, some nod most dont, i even waved at one i see daily but sadly no reply :cry: i think i posted there are about 70ish Nexus 500`s on the roads in UK so the chance of me seeing one is very slim :roll: ah well i dont mind being the only one :lol: as queen music stated.....
There can be only ONE :!: :!: :!: :!:
I cant seem to remember.. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

I occasionally see two TMax's, a MK3 and a MK4, on my commute... but only if I am running late :D

I've seen a TMax on the street once. And that was the same mk3 that was on sale at a shop around here. I did follow him and gave him the thumbs up before I turned away though.

I went by the shop a week later and it was still there though now it isn't. Maybe he bought it after all.

Very unusual to go a day without seeing at least half a dozen.

Rode alongside a mk2 black max up in geordieland a few years ago, was on my tmax all tuned up, he looked at me, I gave him the nod of mutual respect, he looked at me as if I was shit and turned away, so I thought, "fook you" and blew him into the weeds with a twist of the throttle, miserable twat! seen plenty burgmans up here the odd dn-01 and my mates lass rides an atlantic 500.
