Passed 1,000 Miles!
« on: June 11, 2021, 02:41:43 PM »
Hey guys, I hit a milestone in my new life as a scooterist this week, passing 1,000 miles on my 2021 Honda ADV 150. Technically, I haven't ridden quite 1,000 miles yet, as I bought the scoot with 148 miles on it and am only at 1,035 miles on the odometer currently. But, let's not let that technicality stand in the way of a good story. Attached are a couple photos from my ride last evening. That's my church in the background, and a view from the other direction looking out at some surrounding farmland.

So far so good with the scoot; no issues whatsoever. Changed the oil at 600 miles per manual, and it was quite clean, and no visible metal shavings or debris, which was nice to see. When I did the first change on my Kymco UXV 450 side by side there were a couple decent sized shavings and lots of little glittery specks in the first oil change. So, I assume this little Honda engine was pretty darn clean and well fit right out of the factory.

One other quick note on these scoots: I am still seeing lots of posts online from people anxiously awaiting the 2022s to hit dealers nationwide but so far not a one has been seen. So, this model remains a hot ticket and getting your hands on one right now isn't easy. Incidentally, much to Stig's delight, you should note that the 2022 version is available only in Honda red!

Thanks for the photos !!
And glad to hear that Honda has another popular scooter available in this country....to join the PCX.
We don't have many Honda scooters to chose from these days (in America ).
And with end of the 1st gen Forza, and the Majesty.....I've no pretty scooters left, save for the Liberty and Medley.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.
