honda scooter!
« on: December 31, 2021, 04:07:52 PM »
i'll risk posting this. any abuse welcome. my hip/knee/ankle are still playing up and riding is very painful at the moment, so i got myself a 600 silverwing scoot which took a while to get used to. i havent ridden so much in ages so that's a bonus. but it's very comfortable and bombs along at a fair pace

Wasn’t the original SilverWing a CX500 tourer?


I quite like the look of the “adventure” scoots.

Scooters are after my time and yes Steve the original silverwing was a fully kitted CX 500(maybe 650)

I think it was a 500. Wasn't it called the GL500 Silverwing.
