Bullshit.

I've ridden a DCT NC and was very much less than impressed at how coarse and agricultural it felt.
It was so bad that despite having it for the whole day I just rode it straight home and parked it.
You parked it at your home

SALE!

This is a thread in a scooter forum where someone was looking for advice as to whether to get a PCX 125 or an S-wing 125 (both scooters) now she is expressing an interest in a Forza, also a scooter.
She lives in the UK and clearly wants a scooter yet you suggest a (crap) motorbike which isn't even available here?

If anything pisses me off its your stupidity. :roll:
