Hey. New to scooting and had a pretty bad experience whilst out on a test ride.
Started being followed by 2 undesirables on a moped with no helmets.
Couldn't make out if they were just randomly following because I was on a nice scooter or something more sinister like following me home with a view of having my bike away.
Anyone has similar experience or advice?
Cheers
Stu

Being targetted is nothing new. Just be aware of who's around you, if you think somethings dodgey, head for the nearest police station.

Like Mr.P says head or surround yourself with something official that'd put lowlifes off.
Sounds like you got lucky you did'nt get jacked,while one occupies you/other mighta been off with it.Mk.
