Can anyone help?

pluses of owning a larger over 250 scooter and there isnt much choice in new zealand especially 2nd hand since most kiwis are in the mindset as a few posters here in that you may as well buy a real bike,so tell him to give up or sell his house for 12.8million which he probably bought in 1946 for bugger all and up his buying power,big merits for buying a large scooter over a normal bike is the automatic riding and the fact on long trips you can move your legs about and are not limited to one set of pegs

Hi, a GN250 would be a good bike, there are a lot of good second hand ones around,

I,m a granddad, and I find my firestorm is good for my back, I don,t like sitting upright.

Pah! My Lammy at 120 is rock solid and that's on 1960's suspension technology

Ok, not that I know much about Lambrettas, but I would assume that the front end setup that is on the one in your profile is a modification to the brilliant 1960's suspension technology???...

And buying of Terry, he can be a strange guy if he has his period...

I second that, I've dealt with him a few times.

still, he seems harmless, and for some one who hates scooters he sure sells a few

$2000 is within the range. 50cc probably wouldnt be powerful enough, but I am wondering if a 200cc 2-stroke would be better than a 250cc 4-stroke, or would power be similar for both?

and he could buy a Piaggio MP3. 250cc and 3 wheels. Had a look a one a few weeks ago. Looked ok but don't know how it handles. Overseas reports seem to think their ok, quite radical though.

Not really the cheap option huh

[davereid]

Yeah, lots of two smoke scooters still around. Peugeot Speedfight 50cc / 100cc good bikes. TGB make great 50cc two strokes as well as good 4 stroke 125cc & 150cc scooters.
And Peugeot make a 4 stroke 125 with ABS brakes and all sorts of goodies. You can even get it with a supercharger !

No, spring and damper setups like that were on Lammys in the 60's....I've yet to get around to fitting progressive springs and uprated dampers. The outboard disc is a modernisation though.
