Two things I'm waiting for....

1) A scooter that doesn't beat you up over lousy roads.
2) Someone who just spent a lot of time and $ installing those pretty aftermarket shocks say, "You know what? These didn't do squat - still has a crappy scooter ride!"

Well, actually I did hear a pro scooter racer say #2 a few years ago on youtube.

Need some of that off-road, long stoke no or limited plunge damping, max rebound damping, thin sidewall tires for some tire cushion, you get it....
