| Hi, I am new to this forum, having just upgraded from the 125cc SWING to a "proper" Silver wing, a 2009 600 Silver Wing. My previous bikes have been cruiser types such as the 750 Vulcan. I first bought a 150cc scooter whilst living in Naples and soon found myself rarely riding the big bike. I know I'm preaching to the converted but scooters are so much more fun I love the Silver Wing, comfortable, loads of space and plenty of power. All I need now is a dry day to go for a ride |

| Hi! Don't bother waiting for a dry day, make sure you got decent m/c clothing and get out there in the rain! If I waited for the rain to stop I'd never get to ride! |

| Try one of these, it stops you smearing the visor with your glove. handy to have in glove box.

Anything like Scotch mist? |
