Hi Tony, I'd like to confess that it is good to hear from you. Over the last weeks I have been thinking to drop you a line, but the weather has been so good following a shabby summer that I have been out n about doing what I call 'picnic' rides; packing some lunch and a book, then heading to somewhere idyllic on one of my rides. And so ...

You made it happen, Tony. I have learnt from you to just give a few rides a go. If it doesnt work out, then try something else. I pass a white 155 parked alongside a cycleway traverse to Bunnings in Alexandria. The reason I mention this unit over the many others I see is that he also had his tricked with a few 'goodies', including a ...

Any progress, Tony?

Hi, of the Japanese brands I'm a Honda guy. I have two in my garage, the last purchase being my eleventh Honda. But that's over more than 5 decades.  Having said that I have owned the other major Japanese brands. Successfully. My pick on your list would be the Yamaha NMax 155. Yes, really. They have out-sold the PCX 150 over the ...

Thanks for sharing. It's hard to see the X in the Kymco from any photos viewed. I'm guessing any decision might be generated by availability - what comes first. I was aware of the Tech Max. The secondhand market has seen a surge through Covid. Short supply of new bikes and scooters meant that used units were in greater demand. Even the ...

So which way are you leaning, Tony. Do you have a short list of replacement rides in mind?

Well, it finally arrived after a four and a half month wait - my Matte Fresco Brown Honda CT 125. It's cheeky posting this here as it is not technically a scooter. But Honda have this ride listed under scooters on their web platform. And I do step through it, sort of. I'm glad I resisted purchasing in advance any aftermarket accessories ...

Thanks Tony. I came here to do same, and was delighted that someone had put this out there ....

Good to hear from you, Tony. I have always admired your willingness to experiment your rides - but there will always be winners & losers. I wasn't aware that the Tricity 300 had landed on our shores. And your 300 experience is not too dissimilar to that of my 155: cornering, at speed, was confidence inspiring, but the reverse was true ...

Hi Mike, remiss of me not to come back to you sooner. No excuses - except perhaps a heavy heart. It's good to have projects - and you have many. Looking forward to seeing a finished image of the black trimmed 300. I know that it will look good. I do like the look of the black 13" Yourban wheels. A very 'individual' look for the ...
