I was torn between the Honda Shadow 750 Spirit and this baby. For more practical reasons I chose this. I compared apples to apples, and this seemed more practical than the other bike. This is not totally a scooter. It is part motorcycle. With its 400cc engine, it purrs down the highway. My wife followed me home after picking it up, she said she was doing 75 and I was 4 car lengths ahead of her still. Of course she slowed me down. I live in a tourist town and cruising around town on this thing has turned a lot of heads. We have a lot of bikers come through here and I didn't feel out of place at all. Most of the people can't believe it’s considered a scooter. It’s easy to handle considering this is my very first motorbike. It is fully automatic with the new CVT transmission. It climbs a hill with no problem at all. When I put gas in it for the first time I couldn't believe it only took about $6.00 compared to about $30.00 for my car. Anyway I'm really glad I bought this over the bike now.
Upgrades/Accessories: Leo Vince 4 road exhaust in the near future (wife permitting).
