I wonder how much it raises the price on a inexpensive scooter?  Definitely better from the safety stand point.

I was working in the scooter industry when Euro 4 came in. It was between 25% and 30% depending on manufacturer. It was the same time fuel injection became a necessity, so it's impossible to uncouple from that cost.

I found it reassuring at the time that all FI was provided by Bosch and Denso - the Chinese/Taiwanese have shown no interest in developing their own systems.

I can't remember what the situation was with ABS, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't another bought-in good quality system.

ABS all the way. I found CBS quite hard to get on with!

Changing tyres. I've been having something of a refresh of rubber on my three steeds over the last few weeks; one on original rubber from 1981, one set that's cracked and a pair on my C70. I have a horrible feeling the front tyre on the C70 was original - despite the bike being on and off the road quite a bit over the last 38 years. Anyway, brand new rubber for all!

I've seen the 250 Magna imported here but I'm not sure where it came from!

This would have been before Honda were in bed with Wuyang, which came in the early 10s

I do agree that it's a matter of when rather than if. I think I will just about see the end of petrol in my lifetime and the general adoption of electric vehicles but it'll probably be quite a close thing!

Sounds electrical to me - probably just a loose terminal block somewhere.

I'd take it right back to the dealership - they shouldn't have let it out like that

Late 90's early 00's? I've seen loads of them in Italy but they don't appear to have been a big seller elsewhere.

What do you want to know? I think a technically-minded friend had one so I can ask him

I don't mind night so much, but I really don't like dusk.

Ah, but is it on the road yet?
 

It's MOTed but the front tyre is rubbing, going to replace it on Payday!
