11 yrs with 4 scooters
« on: November 01, 2024, 08:27:16 PM »
My first scooter....

April 12, 2013 - new LIKE200iLX
installing crash bars in the back yard. added a 14Ah battery, longer mirrors and C.Grip Michelins quickly.  (that stock seat was a killer - so rebuilt one from a wrecked LIKE)


Then July 17, 2014 I rode my new NSS Forza 300 home, and began a few changes.
(graphics, mirrors, wheel strips, brake levers, blacked out the screen) Forza was sold to purchase the next scooter...


July 18, 2015 new, left-over, Burgman 400  - "internet special" pricing, w/free 100 mile delivery. Burgman was sold & replaced by the LIBERTY.
Additions : mirrors lengthened, 3M reflective pinstriping, 14Ah battery, replaced the horribly buffeting tall stock screen with a sport ERMAX.


2018 LIBERTY150 3V ABS, delivered August 1, 2017.
This scooter needed nothing but a better gas cap and has been a champ for 7 years! This one & the LIKE are easy to service....a big selling point to me!


For a very brief time the Liberty and the Burgman and the LIKE were here, together. Then the shipper picked up the Burgman from my driveway. and trucked it 2,400 miles to the new owner in Oregon!


I intend to live happily ever after with the LIKE ans the Liberty - unless Honda comes back to the USA with a big-wheel step-thru, less than 300cc's.

I enjoyed each of the scooters - and would have kep them all if I had a bigger wallet & garage :)

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Currently, you’re one up on me Stig, I’ve only owned 3 scooters since 2016. A Honda PCX125, Kymco X-Town 300 and now the DTX360.

If I win the lottery the only “scooter” which would tempt me away from the DTX is a Honda X-ADV 750. If I ever get one it’d convince me to sell the Triumph too.

Regards & ride safe,
Neil
