Hi All Just signed up and looking to buy my first maxi scooter, so here to find out more. I've ridden a 650 Burgman in the past and a 300 Beverley, as well as a 400BMW, and now thinking a Honda Silverwing or possibly Burgman 400 would fit my budget to try things out. Looking forward to working through all the information and finding out the things I need to know.

Hello and welcome!
The Silverwing is a bit long in the tooth now; lots of information on Silverwing600.
You might find the 300 or 350 Honda Forzas fit the bill.
I moved from Silverwing to Forza 350; it ticks all the boxes - yes, all of them. ;)

Thanks for that, I know they are a bit older but seem good value trying one out before I part with my 800 road bike. They have that bit more power as I usually have a pillion and would like to cruise at 70 ish on motorways and have reasonable overtakes at 50ish on A roads. Would the 350's do that?
