| It all happened so quickly that I'm still trying to adjust to selling all my bikes. Last week I sold my Honda Reflex and Honda Goldwing and all within a week of listing on Craigslist. I've decided to move back to a Maxiscooter as I had previously owned a Burgman 400 and 650 before moving to a Goldwing. The GW was too heavy for me to navigate the dirt road to our house so I installed a Tow Pac Insta Trike kit for stability. That worked nicely as to creating a stable platform but I lost the joy of riding on 2 wheels. I was riding an over size ATV on steroids. When I bought the Reflex I rediscovered the joy of riding again and longed to return to my former roots with Maxiscooters. The Reflex is an incredible scooter but I really wanted something bigger as I've been looking at Silverwings. Since I've had several Burgman's, I'm going to go for a Silverwing as it will meet my needs nicely for an urban and touring scooter.
Looking forward to chatting with y'all here and learning more about this awesome scooter. Hope to get a SW soon.
Dan

| Welcome, Dan! Now may be a good time to get a Silver Wing. Shop around and you can find a smoking deal on a clean, used one or even a NEW left-over 2011 or 2012. Good luck. |
