Hi I live in Hampshire - in my late 50’s and completely new to all things biking apart from having bought a Royal Alloy scooter recently and realised what I’ve been missing. Not bought one yet but had my eye on a specific white / gold style - which seems to been popular on the 2014 and some 2016 models. Just love that look. a close biker friend advocates the post 2017 types mainly due to Water Cooled engine. I did see some good replies on this forum from people that are more than happy with the older models and some believe the quality of Chrome etc is better. Any views or advice appreciated Ps ...I will be dry and good weather rider only - do won’t be used that much then thanks
Lundi Welcome to the family. I had a 2010 bonnie and really miss it after selling in a mad moment. It rode right and it sounds just like days of old. I have the water cooled bike now and alought i great bike in my opinion its not a patch on my 2010. Joe.
If I'm riding it, I'm choosing the water cooled T100. Nothing wrong with the air cooled, they're fine bikes. The water cooled are more refined.
