  • I'm not yet in the motorbike scene. Me and my girlfriend are both planning on getting riding before the end of the year. I'll be doing full test but she's just after cbt or moped test so I was thinking of it for her as a first bike if it's suitable?

  • Depends what she's after. A twist-and-go modern scooter will be very smooth and easy to ride. The PX is more involved: there's a clutch and gears, plus a back brake on the floor and a from brake on the bar. It's all a bit more engaging and charmingly shit. I love them. But I can see why others would like a plastic bike where you twist to go and pull one lever to work both brakes.

  • Is it 2 speed? I wouldn't be able to ask her, it'd be a surprise.
    Of course it all depends on what I can afford. I'm sure she hasn't considered that older bikes may be harder to ride but I know she's not keen on a modern scooter and I've told her before that some older ones had gears etc
