Title: 41Â°F, mist, 21mph wind~ what's not to LIKE200i !?
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on April 28, 2019, 03:51:08 PM: I don't like riding behind any windscreen - so I don't.
But have learned that it is no problem in sporty conditions if I wear heated glove liners ~ and have absolutely every bit of skin covered from the wind!
(the whole kit includes armored Slider Kevlar jeans under Froggtogg rain pants, leather ankle boots, armored & lined ICON Sanctuary jacket under lined Occunomix rain/wind jacket, balaclava, leather gauntlet gloves and full-face modular helmet, with ear plugs)

Scoot is really quiet going 35mph with a 20 mph tail wind!

Since we haven't declared war on Kuala Lumpur recently - had to get a map to see where you are😊!
I bet there are a lot of scooters and small motorcycles on the roads there!
Where will you be moving to?

Our home is in Bisbee Arizona, far southeast of Tucson on the border with Mexico. You're right, KL is awash in motorbikes. We both ride a Modenas Elegan, built here under license from Sym. At 150cc they're bigger than most.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190501/d58ee560f79a06fb800d38e993d82bfb.jpg)
