A2 commuter for the lad

[CHLEMCBC]

Preferably belt or shaft drive and not a dullville.

Is there anything besides an older F650?

Guzzi V11 if you don’t mind a restrictor.

For commuting you need reliability and storage, so that's a Honda Forza 300/350. Self image might preclude this something fast, stylish and Italian... and a backup bus pass

Good shout. I'm not sure he's that bothered about image for this purpose.

If he’s after it purely for commuting a maxi-scooter is the way forward. A Forza is a good shout (had one myself), currently running a BMW C400 which is nicer to ride, feels more premium and has better heated grips (and seat!). Only downside is I’ve had to fit a topbox as the storage under the seat will only take a helmet. The Forza will take a jacket & trousers when folded neatly.

Thanks for the info. He's 21, he's not familiar with the concept of folding neatly!
