Sportbike Scooters
I always thought it was silly before but they stuffed the 200cc engine in these now. I'm betting they move pretty smartly.

I'm a real fan of motorcycles.....also real fond of scooters, but these cross-overs, or whatever they're called, just don't do it for me. Maybe if I were back in high school, it would look more appealing to me......but wow, that was more than 1/2 of a century ago.
Different strokes for different folks......guess that's what makes the world go around. |

I guess I brought it up because Honda is building a scooter/bike called the Navi which is a Grom looking bike powered by a scooter engine. I just wonder if this will cause a trend. A similar bike with a 300cc Forza engine maybe?

I'm a big fan of the sports scooters, even though they do nothing of the things I ride a scooter for. No storage, knees have to bend back, so probably won't own one, but they would make a nice little to and from work ride. Wonder how they handle in the curves?

Looks fun, but the suspension better be good, lest you go over a rock and wind up having a less than ideal day.
