In April of 2013 I bought a LIKE200i for commuting to work in the dark - I rode the Forza and the Burgman to work in the same way.
After retiring I still ride out on my scooters well before sunrise.
I recon I have ridden every bit of 16,000 miles in the dark these past 5 years.
Why? It's a nice start to my day - easy to keep the early morning habbit - the earth smells better at sunrise - the drinkers are either in a ditch, jail or bed - much less traffic to deal with.
For some, a down-side: You need to slow down. I drop 5 - 10 mph off my normal cruising speed.
I'm in no hurry.
And I can sleep in when I get old.
I highly recommend early riding to those who have the option.
