I've been having a serious think about upgrading to a 125cc scoot.
My wee Sym has served me well, but it's not overly keen on Scottish winters, and the option of a few more CC's extends what I can realistically use it for.
My plan at the moment is to keep the Sym until at least August which will hopefully see it successfully through it's first MOT, and then sell it on (I'm thinking around the £500 mark ??). I'd then do a CBT (my 4th over the years), and buy a 125cc.
There is no longer a Sym dealer in Edinburgh, and even if there was the lure of Honda would probably be too strong. There is a great Honda dealership here which I've used in the past. I'm thinking of either the Vision 110 or the PCX 125; at the moment I'm leaning towards the PCX which although more expensive looks a really high spec bike. Both bikes have fuel injection which makes a massive difference when it comes to cold weather starting, or using after a period of inactivity.
Anyway before all that I have some saving to do
