    yeah they are quite quick and the comfort is quite good buti can do 300miles on an SR in one hit (stopping for fuel) and stillnot feel physically tired.

    You could rag a speedfight around, i could carry some crazy corner speed into corners on my old one, i ruined 2 pairs of trainers from my feet constantly being scraped on the road with my feet on the pegs, and if you don't use the pegs you look like a dick :pimp:

    personally i think it has got to be the Typhoon or the NRG with the best looks or even the ZIP SP (Previous to the 2000 model).... ive got to say the speedfight, they dont do it for me i think the front lights are abit ugly and stand out far to much, gilera runners are abit to big and bulky....and as for the dragster fuck me id rather be seen crawling somewere than riding that thing, personally i think they are ugly as fook!!

    The only problems with NRG's however is that they are far to common around this area, so i would probably go for the Zip SP or the Typhoon.

    As far as performance is concerned, from what ive rode i would have to say the NRG feels the most nippiest.

    Thats just my personal opinion.

    I would say an SR for handling and looks,build quality is very good and very sturdy, I can't comment on how well they wheely as I couldnt give a monkeys how well they wheely, not my thing :bird: :w00t:

    Dragster for looks aswell, you either hate them or love them, either way if you get to ride one its certainly a head turner, handling is pants though, build quality is shite, but they are fast as fook ;)

    Runners just don't do it for me as everyone and his grandma have one :w00t: :bird: :rofl:

    Would love to try out the Piaggio MP3 sometime ;)

    imo there is no ultimate scoot... there are certain peds what have the best in 50/100/125cc categories handling, looks, performance, reliability, practicality, no scoot has them all :bird:

    My SR is the ultimate scoot. :D

    Liquid Cooled engine from the fastest scoots (stock) with the sleek Aprilia styling.

    Have to say though, the Runners handle better.

    Lets be honest, Typhoons look abit dated now. And they handle poo.
    Only Typhoons I like are the ones with Gilera forks/engine/ wheels!
    Oh, and Terros :p
    I agree with the Speedfight plastic feel though.
