All Eyes On the Scooter Pavilion at the International Motorcycle Show in LA
With rough economic times creeping up all over the country, all eyes in the two wheeled world are on the scooter pavilion at the 2009 International Motorcycle Show in Long Beach, CA. While motorcycle sales overall are down from last year, the scooter sub-segment has grown 51% since the third quarter of last year. This trend has made sure that all the manufacturors are paying heavy attention to scooters due to their low price and easy of operation when compared to their larger, faster, and more expensive motorcycle cousins.

wasn't that promising. Stated
the cost is not worth it and it
would be a short production run.
At $4700 it is going to be a hard sell in these times of tight
credit.
The review did not address the good supply system and quality
of their service manuals and parts catalog being available to the public does speak volumes for
Honda. I would never buy a vehicle unless I look through the
service and parts book and would bbe able to buy them at a resonable price. It would have to be written in clear language and have good photographs and drawings to be acceptable. Many of the Chinese and Tawianese manuals don't come near the quality of Honda.
I currently have the 2005 Honda PS-250 Big Ruckus and find it the best two wheeler I've ever owned in 40 years of riding. Having a 400 watt alternator was it's main purchasing issue for me. I can run a music system and auxillary HID lights. Quote
