Yup, scoot was/is an auto. I didn’t do too badly at shifting but I’ve got a long way to go to be smooth. Also got to think about which gear to be in now before a corner, that will take a little time I think. One problem I am having which I knew would be an issue is my throttle control. Scoot was so vague I could be very ham fisted and it did not matter, on this it matters. Got lots to relearn.
Gary, I agree with you on the looks. When I first saw one I thought it was pig ugly. Great body, shame about the face. Didn’t really get my attention till I saw one fitted out like an ADV bike with Trax luggage and hand guards. Started reading up on them after that and read nothing but great reviews on them, won motorcycle of the year from MCN a few years back (maybe even twice, not sure). When it got a face lift last year it clinched it for me as now I think even the front looks good. It has to grow on you but I now like it.
Sweet riding day here today!! But first I got to wait for my hangover to go away, dammit
