When I spoke to the Piaggio rep at the Bike show he said that the PICS helmets that Piaggio were producing had a throat mic which is much smaller. He had one...
I got the latest Piaggio accessories brochure the other week and they are advertising two PICS helmets- one full-face and one no-face. They look OK, don't know...
Evenin' Dave!! Not sure on the fuel consumption figures I get, as I've not worked them out properly. However, my Leo 250 uses about 3.5 litres to go about 50...
Evenin' All!! As much as I love you guys, with your banter and repartie, I'm sure you'll agree with me that a healthy group is a growing group. If you have any...
Hallrob, You're probably better off taking the front off to get at it. You'll probably need to move the main instrument panel aside to get good access to it....
Dave, Excellent website! Thanks to Fast Reg for posting the link. I'll be checking often to see how your machine is working out. BTW, I've got a list of 10...
Hi I don't go nearly half as far as Fast Reg on his Leo as my workplace is 5 miles away so I have a 10 mile round trip a day and fill up about every fortnight...
Hi I know this isn't the place to be talking about motorbikes per se but Triumph's new 1300 superbike has a front end which looks as it has been taken off a...

Hi everyone, Jetsonspace here, have any of you heard, have one or know about Honda's new maxi-scooter, the Silverwing? I live across the pond in a wee small...
I'd also be interested in any mods people are doing to their X9s. The aerial is a brilliant idea, I'll go raid Halfords at some point. Regarding the top box...
Andy I had the Givi box and rack fitted to mine and although I don't have anything to compare it against it doesn't seem to have affected the handling and...
Hi Jetsonspace!! Welcome to our Group!! Yes, the Honda Silverwing has been available in the UK for about a year now, and appears to be quite popular. I don't...

The top box does make the scoot more susceptible to crosswinds and it causes a slight vibration when accelerating from standstill although removing it doesn't...
Tim, I know exactly what you mean. I left my machine in for a service a few weeks ago, and had to bus into the city to pick it up. Like yourself, I was...
Greetings to Jetson and Wayne! Nice to have some more diversity of machines in the forum. I'd be interested in any mods/changes you've made to your machines,...
Evenin' All!! I have a similarly unreliable speedo on my Aprilia, but have been able to work out where 30, 40 and 50mph are on the dial by matching my speed...

Hello Reg, Is the new T&G out? Or are you a subscriber, and therefore get it a bit earlier? Any juicy tech stuff in it, or perhaps a date for when my X9 big...
