I’m a simple man, I see scooter that I like, I buy it.
And now I own 2009 Yamaha Neos. Only 600€, driven 14k km.
Compared to my old scooter, it’s a huge upgrade, even though it is older. This one has
- Smoother (and faster) acceleration
- Higher top speed (52 km/h)
- Transmission shifts more smoothly
- Better suspension
- More comfortable seat, and I also have more legroom
- Easier to steer at low speeds
- Pretty damn nice digital speedometer:
But,
- Horn doesn’t work
- It’s scary to steer at high speeds
- And the speedometer clock is 10 minutes ahead
And that pretty much sums up my experience based on ~50km of driving
