You can’t be serious!

Automatics are hopeless : (complex gearing system combined with budget bike = breakdown, costly repairs, pants performance)

In the current economic climate you should be able to pick up a decent bike at a budget price.

I did have a scooter once but after ending up on my butt decided to stick with a full size bike, especially in the slippery winter months

I have never had any more problems with scooters as I have normal motorbikes, always been a breeze to work on when needed as well…

Just learn to drive Cliffy, trust me mate… winter on two wheels is not a fun experience! :hopeless:

does that include automatics? they are far more prone to foul up.
Also diddy scooter wheels over a large pot hole is not cool particularly when you consider the state of some roads.

Admittedly i am spoiled with a ktm duke 640 which is a fab handling bike but took a lot of overtime before i could afford it!

Yeah automatic scooters, well had more experience with an Italjet Dragster 180 that had had a bit spent on it so I might have just been lucky with that one 😉

Mmm yeah the tiny wheels did not like pot holes and they tended to track any ridges or grooves in the road..

btw nice taste in bikes, I was eyeing up the KTM Duke a while ago but as at that time it would have been my sole form of transport I thought against it

big wheels is a definite plus, yer man is right about pot holes… but there are loads of auto scooters and i can’t believe they are all that bad!

the couple i’ve ridden were fine, but badger sounds like he has had a pretty bad experience, so maybe he has a bit more knowledge than me.

i just had a look at ur KTM, cos a duke is something different to me, and it looks very nice. supermotos must be great round town. v chuckable id imagine raaa

Sounds like a challenge. What people have to understand is, i consider myself to be an absolute nutter with no regard for my own safety. A scooter is an ideal choice until i can afford a scorpion tank.

Thanks for finding that for us TG! I would but the colour is all wrong.
