I'm not really a motorcycle guy, but I've ridden motorcycles before when I was in high school. I really am an avid cyclist who wanted to trade up for my work commute. <br /> I love this scooter. It was easy to use from the get go, is peppy, and has a lot of people at work thinking about buying something. <br /> As a tall guy, I am very comfortable and I can go very fast so that I don't create traffic drag. I've had the scooter up to 50 mph which is much faster than I really need. Since I have insurance on the bike but not a license yet, I have to take it easy. <br /> Three nitnoids: <br /> 1. The key mechanism doesn't work smoothly. So using the key to open the seat is a pain and getting the thing going is sometimes irksome. <br /> 2. Locking the front wheel is not easy. I really need to take it back to the dealer to figure this out. I need the extra security to keep the bike from being easy to roll away. <br /> 3. The idle must be set too low as the scooter died on my at the traffic light this morning. I suspect this is another easy thing to fix. <br /> The good stuff: <br /> 1. The helmet and gloves fit in the seat compartment. Yea, I don't have to schlep them up the stairs and store them in my office. <br /> 2. The engine trany is tight, shifts automatically with no apparent jerks. <br /> 3. The safety features like the kickstand kill switch, headlights always on, and double stand when storing are appreciated. <br /> 4. This puppy has a double passenger seat and can haul two people quite easily. <br /> 5. It only has a 1.5 gallon tank but I only have to fill it up once a month. Sweet!

Bought it for commute from Spanaway to Tacoma. Having LOADS of fun riding it! The ride and handling are what I expected for a 2-wheeled vehicle.

Bought it for commute from Spanaway to Tacoma. Having LOADS of fun riding it! The ride and handling are what I expected for a 2-wheeled vehicle. I have never been on a scooter or motorcycle before this so I am quite used to the feel of the car. It has a lot more giddy-up than I expected, definitely able to keep up with the rest of traffic.
