Hi -
I just joined this forum today in anticipation of my purchasing a 2014 BMW scooter... probably the Sport model.
I've been riding various bikes since the early 1970s and currently own those listed in my signature line. Now that I'm in my mid-60s and my arthritis worsens as time goes on, I am considering downsizing from my 2005 BMW R1200RT with only 5K miles (sell or trade in) to a 2014 BMW C600 Sport scooter. I'm going to keep my Vespa because it's so much fun, but it's not really suitable for those times when I want to travel on the interstate highways. The Royal Enfield maxes out at about 65mph on the straightaway and has significant vibration due to it's single cylinder, however is super fun riding around town.
I joined the forum to learn a few things about both BMW scooters -- both good and bad before I make my final decision.
Here are a couple of pics showing my Royal Enfield and my Vespa ...
