One of the main reasons I stay with my MP 250 A is I like the way the center of gravity is nice and low. The second reason is the total weight is managable. I would like to graduate to a Yamaha 400 scooter or a Forza to get more performance. But I don't want to get a heavier machine than I have right now. That is why I came to scooters from big 4 cylinder bikes in the first place. There are faster ,lighter scooters but like the Kymco City they are to small for my 6'3 frame. They have no leg room for anyone over 5'9 for God's sake. Does any of you guys an gals know the wet weight of my scooter or a Yama 400 ? Or do you have any Ideas based on what I have said ?

Well, I researched the weight of the Reflex clone I am speaking about and the Roketa Linhia powered 250 scooter is exact same scooter as mine and the sorce I found says GW is 341 lbs. I think in this case GW means wet weight because it also mentions a NW (net weight) of 320 lbs. . . Then found a YP 400 wet weight of 467 lbs.. If this info is true a 400 Majesty is Tooo.. heavy for my taste right now. I am 54 yrs old ex smoker and I can walk my scooter at least 2 city blocks with a couple short breaks if there is a problem. And I wanna keep it that way. |
