I've been riding bikes for most of my adult life, recently I had my bike stolen, and decided to change my ride to a xmax 250. So far I've been presently surprised.

Hello and welcome ,glad your enjoying the scoot

Welcome

Welcome Ivan. I too moved from large motorcycles to a 250 X Max. Like you , even after 18 months ownership, I'm still happy with the scooter. What year/model have you got ?

It's a 2006, I'm a student nurse, so when I was looking for cheap and cheerful to replace my nicked bike, have to say that the xmax handles like a dream and the acceleration is amazing. It's definitely made me think about changing for good.

Aye up Ivan, thanks for your reply. I own a 2014 X Max. As you state surprising good handling. I've left one or two sports bike riders behind going into and out of islands and bends. I'm still on City tyres so heaven knows what a set of " sport " tyres could do.
Enjoy your scooter and if you manage any spare time look forward to seeing you on a meet or ride out.
Cheers
