Na. Got I got a jacket, gloves, boots and I already had a helmet. Except for the helmet my gear only cost me £213. Got to love the sale rack.

That's probably one of the best looking scooters I've seen, I'm pleasantly surprised. Hope you enjoy, OP!

Dude, I have no idea what a Scomadi is, but it looks cool.

A couple of words of advice re scooter riding.. As a motorcyclist I hated it when scooter riders would chop up the left side of traffic. I've seen one hit a pedestrian, it's a dangerous habit, you also risk hitting a car door. And if you see a motorbike try to avoid the temptation to push in.

Wow, I've turned into an old prat.

Be safe, have fun

Scomadi are pretty good look retro but with all modern stuff. The engines also just bolt in and out so you could buy a 250 engine and swap it in

Never heard of Scomadi until now, but having read up on them they seem like a really interesting company and they get some great reviews.

Looks great, retro but with all the mod cons.

Well they are designed to look like lambrettas but with modern features (digital speedometer, fuel gauge, better brakes etc). Most of the old scooter riders hate it though because it's not 'authentic' enough and has some plastic panels. My dad has a bright orange one aswell so we figured that we at least know they are good. They are technically Chinese built (designed by two English guys) but with only around 20 built every few months the qc is really good.

Nice looking Scooter.

I'd never heard of Scomadi before so thanks for introducing them. It's also nice to see a British company doing well.

That looks very nice, and you're on two wheels. Take no stick from people who look down on scooters.

If you brave two wheels and don't ride like an idiot then you're welcome in my book.
