| Hey guys,
I'm from Singapore. Recently ordered a new Silverwing Sw-T400,
collecting it in Dec. lol
can't wait to get my hands on it.
I had a few rides - Piaggio X9 Evo 200, Vespa GT200, Aprillia Atlantic 200.
This will be my 3rd new bike.
And i'm sure i'll enjoy this ride for a long long time. |

| Welcome to the Silverwing 'club'! On a 400 you should be able to do laps around the island. ;-) When I was over there, I saw thousands of small bikes and scooters, but only 2 Silverwings, and one Burgman.
Take care, and have some kopi and eggs for me. =) |

| haha... You know, when you are facing the foods that you mentioned, you hardly ever have the crave for them. Only when you are far far away hahaha...
Silverwings has increased tremendously over the years. As Singapore is a relatively small country, we have most kind of bikes and scooters here.
Service support is very strong and competitive here as well.
When you wanna buy a bike, its never a problem. I think there is like a thousand shops in SG that sell bikes, Probably a hundred of bikes that specialise in repairing and servicing scooters, plus a small fraction of riders who does touring up north to Thailand across West Malaysia |

| I moved over to the USA in 1995 at age 17 so have never ridden in Singapore or even driven more than a few times (driving lessons). Haven't been back home since 2002. Last time I went back home I must've put on 20 lbs in 2 weeks cos I was eating everything all day long!!!
I don't even remember if Maxiscooters were even available back then... just the Vespa style scooters. I'd ride back home but I don't think Silver Wings float... |

| Yeah i guess in 2002, Silverwing was first introduced to the market as one of the first few generations of maxiscooter.
Reason also because of the price.z |
