i assume he will be selling it ?
Probably not as he has room in his garage. He p/xd a DN01 (his 2nd one) for the SH and NC in 2017 then bought it back from them in 2018. Sold it back in 2019 when he "gave up riding", instantly regretted it and bought another one from up North in 2020.

I asked whether he would be chopping in the DN yesterday and the general gist of the answer was no. :lol:

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.
Regards, Diddly
new sh 125i may have been key-less in 2015,but my 2016 sh 125i has a key.

Had a bit of online searching,the later bikes are being listed for such high amounts that i would be better off buying a new one than one thats 2 or even 3 years old with varying mileage .Full price is quite high but as always theres the odd new bike with a few hundred off so the price difference is only £500 more for new
Downsides are the keyless ignition and lower engine power ,but increased storage space under seat ,which i wont need
So narrowed it down to the 2011 -2014 model ,will still need to have a sit on one as mentioned by a poster they are cramped and small foot area.

bought a 2016 model with 4k miles
it came with a topbox heated grips and handguards
Been commuting on it for the last week , its really nippy and great on fuel , not quite as agile as the cub but the ability to overtake something doing over 25mph is a bonus !

What to do with the cub now though !, I may retire it for a while before deciding keep or sell
