Hi all again.
Had a guy reverse into me at a high rate of knots, with a big van with a tow bar.
Wrote off my YP250 R X-Max 250.
Found another one last week and hope to get it this week.
2012 model, 1 owner with 1450 miles.

Thanks, and fortunately not, just my pride. Not dumped or been dumped for 20 years !
The bloke paid me cash too. He's a biked with 2 x Harleys and a custom built Bonneville.

Yep, one of those but with a top box and frame (which replaces the pillion grab bars).
The 2012 model was a face lift model with different front trim and lights, more recessed and better function instruments and different riding geometry as the fork rake is slightly flatter.
Feet first riding is so different and can be a lot better on the back, (not young any more
)
Was lucky to find one with so very low mileage. Was bought by an octogenarian apparently who (obviously) hardly used it. Still has 3 months manufacturers warranty left and the dealer is giving me 12 months anyway.
