i had one way back in 2009,black one,picked it up,was nice until it cut out stopping for traffic lights,less room for my size 11 feet,less ground clearance,like a bit [ie lots ] fuel when it was used hardish,but the worst thing on it,was the seat so uncomfortable so when it got nicked,got my 2nd sh 125,and that was much better,and so was my 3rd/4th sh 125.

I like both my Innova and SH300. You will hear very few complaints about the SH. They are all fuel injected with a newer model introduced in 2015ish which is keyless.
Not strictly a Maxi nor a tiddler but can keep up with Maxi 400's due to power weight ratio. Will also bimble on Cub runs. 2 gallon tank, 80 MPH and 80-100 MPG.

Thanks
Been reading up on them a little ,probably the 2015 onwards is the best bet with the improved storage
They do seem to hold their prices,new ones for just over 4k and ones several years older for not much less ,mostly dealers selling them though

I’ve tried one but as Richie says make sure you can fit on/in it.

I’m only 5’8” with size 9’s but my knees hit the front legshields and I found the fixed foot position unbearable.

I've sat on one and decided there wasn't enough room for my feet.

Once a week a few of us ride out and are usually led by a friend on his Honda auto (SH300/NC750/DN01) we were out yesterday running in age order, I was at the back. :lol:

He turns 87 in a few weeks and is going to Belle View M/C to try out an X-750ADV when they have one in.

The ability to put your feet forward on a scoot is good ,my Xevo is good for that so feet down or forward size 12s :roll: plus the fuel filler is between your feet no need to lift stuff off the seat to get fuel . And my HJC full face fits in the boot.
