| My name is Mike, I'll be 59 in less than a month and have had my 2007 for a 1.5 years. I got it with 6k miles on it and have added 6k since. I use it mostly for commuting and riding with the Santa Cruz Scooter club. (Santa Cruz, CA, USA)
The scooter club is predominately Vespa and I'm the only Honda rider. I switched from a Piaggio 250 after it took me 3 hours to change the brake fluid because the opening in the dash didn't align with the brake fluid reservoirs.
In the past I've had a Honda CB360 and and Honda 400 Hawk. I really love riding the scooter. My girlfriend loves Italian things but I love things that are manufactured correctly. So I have the Honda.
I haven't made any mods to it yet but plan on putting on the Givi windshield and probably heated grips this winter.
I apologize for having posted without an introduction.
Mike |

| Welcome to the forum Mike. There are a lot of people here who have graduated from motorcycles. It is a great place for Swing info and as an added bonus, it has some pretty interesting contributors. |
