Hope to hear more from you soon.
Just as a matter of interest - how did you find us? - are you tempted?
I should probably post in the "Who are u?" forum, eh?
I've been here for a few months now, lurking, without much to say. I've started going to school nights, and a scooter seems like much more practical transportation than my motorcycles. My K1200RS, despite my love for it, was sold because with it's dry clutch and wide sidecases, it was too tough to filter through traffic.
The Burgman 650 originally seemed
the way to go. I've broadened my horizons a bit since. But basically, I'm actively looking for a scooter, very actively hoping I can find a good deal on a 650. It's tough in California, as I said earlier, because there seems to be either a poor market for them, or no one wants to give them up. And I can't bring one into California because Suzuki doesn't import them all with CA emissions.
I waffle daily. Right now, I'm looking for good deals on a Burgman 650, 400, the Majesty, maybe a Silverwing, the Piaggio X9 500 (slow processing of the proceeds of my K12RS sale made me just miss a steal on one), and the Atlantic 500.
I reckon I'll change my own tires on whatever I end up on. Maybe just more often on a 650.
