The burger is a grand machine. In fact, later models with ABS can also represent good value used, when compared with other big maxis with ABS. A sadly underrated machine in Australia, except by scooterists who know better.

I'd like to know about that too. I have found it grinds the centre stand a bit too easily when carrying a passenger.  Or that could be my riding style, given a speeding ticket today. Naughty Tmax! The Dr. Pulley sliders I have ordered probably won't help me much with either of those issues. Meanwhile, I have discovered that I can ...

[quote user="jpfvita"] Yep but it was just a straight drag I think things would be different in the twisters. [/quote] Kind of different. Eccles gets away from me going up Macquarie Pass, but I catch up again going down Jamberoo Mountain

Looks like they fixed everything I didn't like. Tmax is still king for my city commute, but if I was commuting suburb to suburb I would now choose the GT. Yamaha will want to do something special for next years Tmax now, or they might lose the Paris crowd... It is clear that BMW aren't pissfarting around with this scooter thing. It is ...

So sunday looks like a lovely day to scoot in the countryside.

If you get an RTA MyToll account you don't need a tag on your bike or scoot, just register the plate. I have my car and scooter on the same account, and the tag is only in the car. Go to myrta.com

So today I had a morning meeting in Newcastle. Took the freeway there, unfortunately.  Tmax does that easily of course, bit of buffeting when following something, windscreen is better on low than high for me. I took the "wrong exit" coming home, and went via the old road. Wow, the handling is just fabulous. What a wonderful machine.

I would say it's all about the bigness. For example, the Honda Forza 300 is a maxi, the Vespa 300 is not. Bigness.

This would be a good entree to developing markets for BMW, so could have both 150 and 300 engines. Kymco build with BMW design and tech is a good formula for Asia.

There's no mounting plate, the case goes straight on the rack. The connecty bit is all in the case too, so the rack actually looks good without the case on. You do need to buy a separate lock barrel too. Prices are all on the y-shop website, there's probably more room for discounts when you buy them with a new Tmax! There is another rack, ...
