passenger
« on: January 22, 2012, 10:00:28 PM »
  Is the Agility 125 powerful enough to carry a passenger around locally or would the Super 8 150 make much more difference? I'm leaning toward the ag 125 because of price but don't want to buy one and find out too late that it won't carry us ( combined weight of 320 lbs )  Thank you  Dale

The difference is minor, only about 1hp and a tiny bit more torque.

I was faster 2up on my Agility 125 then I could have ever been on a rather powerful
liquid cooled 50cc scoot when I was riding solo (and that thing could hit 50mph).

Cruising and acceleration from the lights both.

The Agility's seat (size, padding and positioning) will be more comfortable for 2up
then on the Super 8 too.

It depends on the local speed limit. I can keep up with 45MPH local traffic with me and my wife combined 300lbs. The start won't be snappy but will get you up to speed.
