But that's not right! The Internet said he is doing it wrong. He must be well slow.

Yep, ride how you feel is right is what I've always said, its different I suppose if we were all racing in Moto GP.

Some great pics today, been perfect biking weather, was itching to get on the bike all day.

From tonights Oakley, Bedfordshire meet.







Dont see many of these around, I think the 500 was even rarer than the 650, was in very nice condition.

Nice..No shame in that, they go and handle well enough from what ive seen of them on the continent.

That's a fairly serious piece of kit - not often you see a scooter with an Akrapovic!

Yeah it goes well and they do handle nicely. I took the baffle out tonight to try it but will probably put it back in since you can't vary the revs as much as you'd like since it's an auto, unlike a normal motorbike. It's quite big but rides very nicely - very smooth in the steering, grippy, handles bumps well.

Only thing compare to a normal m/bike is that you can't really get a 'feeling' though the back tyre as you put the power down out of bends, it's a bit remote. Although it probably doesn't have enough power to spin up even in the wet, so maybe I should worry!
