Without getting in my soapbox the term

"the government has pledged ££££"

should say the taxpayer will be digging deeper into their pocket

however if I've read it right after being furloughed companies are entitled to lay off/ make staff redundant once the scheme stops paying out.

The lockdown was implemented to slowly IMO & we will pay the penalty because of it

The sh125 06 plate has more foot board room than the 300cc. In fact I reckon on the 300 if your over a size eleven you’d struggle, the 300 was about 06 plate as well.

Oh, do you mean seat to boards.... I doubt there’s much in it. I use a nitehawk, that helps raise the height a bit. I thought it was quite good on the legs and im quite fussy....I like dropped legs.

My size 12s are the one main reason I've never owned one. :lol:

Mine was an 09 and I recall anything over a size 9 boot was cramped. Leg height was OK for me at 5'11" but the lack of leg stretch was a pain when commuting.

Useless in the snow as well :cry:

I recall doing 20K miles in a year though.

Rear suspension corroded badly

the latest 300 has improved feet area, I'm a size 10 and about 6 inches spare from front to back. It suits my dodgy knees fine, but we are all different.

Horobags........I meant to message you back to ask how you were getting on with the new sh300. Also was wondering if it has had the petrol tank moved to the bottom of the front leg shields like they’ve done with the new sh125 and does it have a led headlight ?

I’m just running the 06 sh125 you saw in the pics at the moment......bloody good scoots ( as you know) however I find it a bit nosier than the 300, but apparently some of the more recent ones are quieter and more economical than mine.

The white mint innova I had for sale is back on gumtree at £1300, it’s changed hands a couple of times since I sold it.....still decent nick, but bit rusty in places and he’s ditched the rack because it wasn’t a Honda one!

It’s such a shame, they really are a cracking scoot......they need to sort it out....however if it’s more generous on the newer ones I’d be interested to know if your size twelves now fit with a bit of wiggle room.
