How are things Mark . . .
The NMax is going along fine (2500kms) - Have fitted some extra parts so as to "tart" it up a bit. Averages mearly 50km per litre.
Initially the ride was a bit hard, but is ok now - it handles well for a smaller bike. I have fitted a screen to keep out the cold a bit.
So far, so good ...

Yes - there is progress at last - took delivery of Yamaha NMax 155 today (matt blue). Handles well.

Hi Mark . . .
I am starting to consider buying a smaller bike - maybe a Yamaha NMax 155.
The new NMax Tech Max won't be here until 2022.
The Honda ADV 150 is $1K dearer - and has a drum brake at the rear (yes, really!)

Have a happy and safe two wheel traveling over the Christmas break - and afterwards ...

I have just noticed that Kymco have a couple of new models about to be released.
The DT X360 seems a likely candidate for me - after I rid myself of theTricity 300.

It's now a year later, and I finally own a Tricity 300 - only to be disappointed.
The front suspension lock is a pain in the bum ( not very secure). This causes anxiety when wheeling around (leans side to side to easily).
My main concern however is with the tendancy for the front suspension to 'dive' at low speeds (so mush so that ...

Still sensible to wear one when you ride.
Not fashionable or flattering but maybe a life saver.
Don't let it stop you getting on your bike.

Good news Sam - happy scooter-ing .

Hope you recover your bike.
If you do, buy a front/rear disc lock - then you are unlikely to ever have the bike stolen again.
