Today I had my Xciting 250 out for the first time in while.   It is a good scoot for 2 up, but it is a bit unstable at low speeds.  But if you want one that gets good mileage, and is great for under 65 mph, then I think an Exciting 250 is a good bike.

I've looked at a number of motorcycles and scooters and did test rides on a T-max, BV250, and Xciting250.  I decided I don't like the feet forward riding position of the maxi scooters including the Xciting 250 which is a maxi scooter with a 250cc engine.  I'm leaning toward getting the BV 250 or possibly waiting for the GTi300.

We have all had those spooky moments when you realized you could have been road kill.
Either you learn to embrace those moments or you quit.
If you had a friend talk you into riding so you have someone to ride with, it won't take much to scare them off.
It is in your blood or it isn't.
