I'm thinking about getting one of these. Not the latest version, cos I'm dead tight and scrottagy. But a second hand one. Most of the reviews (including John Milbank who I very much trust) say they're really good and different.

They do peak my interest as well tbf. A couple of lads I know who run a motorcycle training company both now ride them, and love them. And one of the lads is one of the smoothest/ quickest riders i know.
Be ideal for commuting and quick trips out.

And practically every episode of that miserable series had one or either of the two boyos busting a gonad to pick the bloody things up. :lol:

As for the Scoot thing,it takes all sorts,I guess. :wtf:

I have one this is my 2nd one first one got nicked. I love it ticks all my boxes. I lowered mine as the seat is wide and quite high. More than enough poke for me and in sport mode quite fun to ride on the B roads. I have no intention of picking it is so the weight is not an issue
