Riding a scooter is fun

[Stig / Major Tom]

Even though I have to get geared up like I'm going up Everest - once out on the open road, mostly car free, in the dark countryside.....cruising along on a big wheel small engine scooter - it is  f u n..

All the riders who have to put away scooter riding for the winter....well, I might just really feel bad for them, except I'm having too much fun for a guy my age to feel bad about much of anything.

And, once again, can't help but notice how well this little big wheel scooter handles crappy city streets.
When I switch back and forth between a 12" wheel and a 16" - it is very noticeable. No wonder they sell so many big wheel scooters in Europe!

You’re right Stig, a good trade off between form and function. The small wheels may look good and be manouverable, but they don’t perform anywhere near as well all round as the larger ones.

Bigger OD, longer wheelbase = easy rider!

Although the wheels& tyres are only marginally bigger (2”) on my XT300 compared to my PCX, for my money the handling on the XT is much better out of the crate!
