Title: Saying Goodbye/ new scooter
Post by: scooter freak on December 12, 2024, 01:33:21 PM
Don't know if I'm doing this right but I've had a couple of replies about saying goodbye asking me to show the new scooter so here it is. I purchased a brand new Honda ADV160. showing a picture with new top box, or old Kymco top box and my cold weather hand guards. if you look closely, you'll see ice on the ground in upstate NY. hoping it goes away today so I can get out. so far, at only 300 miles, I like the new one. wanted something a little faster and I've had it at GPS, to 64 mph. it only has 300 miles so I don't want to push it yet. getting around 95 mpg but again, it's not broken in. thanks for your support and I will check back again soon.
also, was happy to sell the Kymco Like 200I to a nice lady for her son as a Christmas gift, so I do feel like it ended well. I will miss that scooter. 4 years and totally trouble free

Thanks for the photo!
Going from a Kymco to a Honda.....is akin to going over to your rich uncles, the one with the inground pool, for Xmas dinner!
"Nice!"

I don't know how active the Honda forums are - but we'd sure like to continue to have your scooter reports, photos and riding experiences with your new scooter!

....another fine LIKE200i owner moves up.... (we had one who went to an HD!)

I wouldn’t say I was moving up. It’s not better, just different. I will keep you posted on the Honda if everyone likes. Not sure about the Forum for the ADV. right now, there’s ice on the roads so it’s sitting. Was really interested in the Piaggio 150 also but our local dealer who is Vespa, Aprillia, and Moto Guzzi also just closed their doors after 3 years. So anyway, it’s the Honda. Thanks again everyone and Happy Holidays!

There are quite a few ADV 150/160 owners on the Adventure Riders Forums:  https://www.advrider.com/f/forums/battle-scooters.36/ (https://www.advrider.com/f/forums/battle-scooters.36/)
