Title: Very few miles
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on July 27, 2014, 05:58:51 PM

Was at the dealers the other day.
Sat on a pretty, red PCX ('12 I think) in the used bike section...wondered at the mileage since they wanted $2999 for it.
Salesman turned on the key ....it had less than 700 miles on it!

The nearby, huge, navy blue Piaggio BV500 from '06 with big Givi wind screen and big Piaggio top box for $4600...Big enough scoot to tour N. America on....it had less than 800 miles on it!

They had a LIKE200iLX with 181 miles on it.

Crazy.
These scoots weren't even broken in yet.

Stig- I just saw a Like 200i 2013 model for sale in my local craigslist with only 200 miles. Mine has 4500 and it is a 2012! :o

Those scoots may have been an impulse buy up by the register. "Oh these are cute, I will take one of these as well!" They get it home and realize it goes fast and they can't close the door and turn on the A/C. And of course you can't get all the groceries to fit. And it's on to Craig's list they go.   
    They have no idea what they are missing. But oh well, riding is not for everyone.

Ride safe, mscmkr
