The BMW by far. The Peugeot is just for laughs

No than the Peugeot

I've done 1,400 miles in 6 weeks on the PCX. Only about 500 on the BMW in that time

To be honest it's a big soft thing like a big friendly Labrador

Perfect for the twisty and bumpy roads around here. At just over 2,000 rpm it has 62 ftlb of torque

I don't know if this is the correct place for others to post their "other bikes". :?

I bought my 1986 Honda Elite 250 in 2007. It was covered in dust from being neglected in a garage for 12 years prior. It cleaned up pretty good and had only 7,800 miles.

The seller's brother bought it new and also purchased a Hondaline fairing, top box and cloth cover. Now 8,000 miles later, the old girl still runs great but finding suspension parts is difficult these days and the PCX 150 is finally the right scooter from Honda to replace her.

All shined up.

Hey Slickvic -- we have been making a new thread for everyone posting. I'm going to split your post off into another thread, unless you have any objections. :)

I'm not bothered, it wasn't going to be a thread with a great shelf life so I don't mind if it stays
