Looks like it would be fun but I reckon you'd feel a bit exposed in traffic, it's so small

They look great , had a sit on one at my local Honda dealer but at 6 foot 6 I'm out !!

Y2 did you get one yet, both me and a mate are toying with the idea of buying two just to hoon around on for a bit of a laugh, the vids on UTube look like its a great fun bike for messing about with

 

[y2blade]

Not yet I need to ride one first but keep getting distracted by big bikes while the weather is nice
MissB and I sat on them at the bike show and instantly had massive grins on our faces.

After weeks of toying with the idea of getting a couple of these wee bikes, both me and my mate took the plunge yesterday. The local Honda dealer, Devines in Glasgow had two in the showroom, I went for a white one, he went for the black, I believe the new price is £2800 we done the deal at £2600 OTR for each of them.

Need to get insurance sorted this week then when it arrives, start making the list of parts required to get it tricked up. First will be the exhaust, air filter, then the skys the limit. An amazing market of add on bits for these, this is going to be fun.

Insurance dealt with, £106 fully comp from Hastings, hope to collect the bike on Saturday....

 

[y2blade]

Fantastic, i look forward to some pics.

Good pics Y2, we got the bikes on saturday, managed about 30 miles on mine that afternoon, what a bloody laugh, I love it, flat out everywere, i saw 59 on the clock at one point. My mate has now ordered a tail tidy and is looking at exhausts, I'll need to wait a few weeks before starting the mods, really looking forward to getting some trick parts....

 

[y2blade]

Excellent, get some pics up please when you can.

 

[y2blade]

I'm hoping to get out on one on Saturday (Hangover & Weather permitting).

McGuinness's paddock bike at preNW200 test today

 

[WEE BOAB]

Have you had a ride on one yet, I've not been back on mine since I collected it from the dealers, all work and no play at the moment plus I'm trying to get 1K miles on my Sportster 72 so that I can get the first service. My mate has bought ful exhaust system including carbon can, a K&N filter and a tail tidy, we hope to fit thm to his Grom on Sunday, that should be fun...I'll take some pictures if it goes ahead......

 

[luckylucian]

I really fancy one but at 6' and 16st it may be a bit of an ask!

Anyone that size riding one and can give me some feedback?

Thanks
