I think your right. I will be looking for one. It is what my husband wears, I didn't know how hard it would be to wear. Hubby has a couple of 1/2 helmets. I will see what I can find for me. Thank you. paula

I got my 2012 Jonway YY250T last Thursday for $1600.00 one owner and a little over 3800 miles on it and I sure thought it was a good price. I hope it was anyway. paula

Wonderful lights. I just got my scooter and I had my hubby drive it home the night we went to get it since I had never been on a scooter before, it was late in the evening and dark by the time we headed home. I noticed the headlight was not very bright. I do not plan on ever riding in the night but those lights would sure be a blessing if I had to. paula from Mo

OK so yesterday I rode the scooter for the 1st time  . My husband and son rode their Harley's behind me. We went into town and had lunch and then we headed home. It wasn't so bad. I was nervous of course. Only problem I really had was my sunglasses was trying to move up my face when I was going 60 on the highway. Think I will try one of those straps you put on the ear pieces and maybe they will hold them on better. Oh yeah I forgot to turn my turn signal off right away, I completely forgot about it until I had gone into town. Hubby told me later and I said yeah I got to remember that someone might think I am turning when I am not. paula |

I just bought a 2012 Jonway YY250T . Since I have never been on a scooter before my husband drove it back from where we bought it about 60 miles. When we got it home it smelled like it was hot. The thermostat was just fine. I did email the guy we got it from and told him about it and he said yeah it was ok, it will happen. So being new never having a scooter before I am sure I will be asking a lot of questions. Thanks for your help everyone. Paula from Mo

I am new here and I have been trying to ride my husbands Suzuki Boulevard and I do ok until I get to turns. I can do the big ones but short quick ones I am having issues with. I found on line that some motorcycles are automatic and then I found the scooters. I think I will feel a little better with this one. I am 56 yrs old and have had a hip and knee replacement. I don't want to hurt myself anymore than I have on his bike. I got into the gravel and thought I better drive on the grass and when I did, it was wet and down it went and I ended up rolling. Nice bruise on my leg and sore arm. :-(
My husband bought a Harley Cruiser as we had a little girl with special needs we adopted and he wanted to be able to get her on a bike and the Boulevard wouldn't work. She is loving it. In the mean time, I am staying home. I am not comfortable riding the big bike. No problems going straight was rather fun, didn't slow down enough when I got to the turn went to far out hit the gravel then the grass. I was done at that point. I am hoping and praying I will be able to ride this with no clutch and shifting gears.
Picked up the scooter last night, my husband drove it home. He sure looked rather funny on it after seeing him on his Harley. He really felt that the scooter would help me. If not I will sell it and be done.
Hope to find others here who can help with questions I may have. Thanks for your time. I am from Missouri. paula
