Orbiting around Muppet world
Orbiting around Muppet world
Well, Hello fellow muppets; Black Bess here and I come in peace. In my mod teens I ditched the Lambie LD125, married, left Scotland, did the career thing and woke up at 55 to re-discover the world of maxi-scooters. A friend and I wrote an article for 'Really Useful' bike mag comparing maxi's V's cruisers for start again oldies. Guess which came tops over a 5 day western Isles trip?I am a global designer living in South Leicestershire. Tested out on a Sym (it was ok) then a Yam majesty 400 followed by a Burger 400 (best) then the Burger Exec 650.I have the Tom Tom Rider and pondering over a Giving screen. Any advice on upgrades will be really appreciated. Now I'm looking to ride in company, anywhere!

Re: Orbiting around Muppet world
I have the large Givi on my 650 non exec, it blocks a lot of wind, but at 6ft 1 I need to duck down 1-2 inch to get total silence and 0% wind buffeting. So are you a part time bike journo ?

Hi and welcome.

I was surprised how good the big Burger is on a recent demo ride.
