I've made a recent return to two wheels at the age of 68. I've got a Honda Innova that I love riding and serves its purpose for 90% of the time. For the other 10%, I could do with a bit more speed, overtaking tractors etc. I'm a short-@rse, so don't want anything big and heavy. My wife is disabled, so if she goes on the back, it needs to be step-through and I'm therefore seriously considering an SH300. It seems to tick most of the boxes.
I'm hoping I'll pick up some good ideas here.

Re: Hi everyone
SH... or maybe the Forza 300 I think is a little lower, smaller wheels, more feet forward, but does have a bit of a 'tunnel' rather than the flat floor of the SH...

Re: Hi everyone
Thanks for the advice. I wouldn't want a seat much higher than my Innova, so I need to try the SH300. The Forza might be a bit heavy. The GTS300 is another option, there's a nice one local to me but it's green.

Re: Hi everyone
Welcome Rayb.
The Innova's a good little bike but as you say, a little low on power. The SH300 is a great bike from all accounts.
