I've seen a Japan market Morphous Scooter on sale. A bit like a Helix 250cc and was never bought over here . Anyone had one ? Just interested as I quite like the unusual look

All you need to do is take a Maj 250 and stretch it a bit, then you'll have a Mophous!

I like the Morphus and the original Maxam concept it came from..and the Suzuki Jemma etc...

But I’ve owned rare stuff and don’t think I want to go through the hassle of days spent tracking down parts again. Probably my age :(

Maxam 3000

For sale in the UK?? The only one I've ever seen in the flesh was a Polish reg'd one at the Honda Helix 25th birthday bash in Germany back in 2011. The mechanicals are mostly 250 Maj, so that's OK. Good luck finding panels for one though.

Never had one, would definitely like one!

Suzuki Gemma for sale here; a bit rich at £4k for what is effectively a 10yr old bike, no miles mind.

I get the rareness of parts. I had a Joker many years ago , a Japanese import loved it then everyone did a copy. I’m guessing they are low and small , bit like a Joker :mrgreen: Love the Manga stuff from Japan and my T Max has grown from that . We’ll see :mrgreen:

Spares could be a problem I think, I'll stick with my Helix tar very much.
