Re: Like these helmets?

Looks better with you modelling that helmet. The one I was shown is a shark evoline. It looked nice but just read a review that its very noisy and heavy. Next helmet I get will need to be quiet! I have an Evoline, bought last year, replacing my previous Evoline. The newer ones are lighter and quiet...

Nail-on-head! :)

I'd say this was far more important than a decent main dealer.

If you have a good, recommended independent motorcycle/scooter shop within accessible distance, buy the scooter you want from whomever you like, bad or good.

Re: Rain riding

Personally for me it comes down to staying as dry and as warm as possible. I back up GN2 about the genuine pinlock. It's absolutely essential if you want to ride without having to lift your visor at traffic lights and let cold air in. I would like to try a pinlock but it would be about $100. If I r...

Re: Manufacturers missed a trick! Well, be nice to have this

Pretty sure that some Piaggio maxi scooters (X9? X8? Aprilia? Gilera Nexus?) had flaps that allowed hot air to escape into the footwell.

For most of the short journey stuff I do I would seriously consider a Vmoto scooter. The price is very reasonable, ie getting there.

Re: Film recommendation

Having read the book, I wonder if watching the film will tell me any more than I think I know.

I did have an idle thought to look for it on Netflix as I had last night to myself.

Unfortunately, "Guardians of the Galaxy II," caught my eye in the DVD cabinet before I could search. :)
