After a lot of research into second hand and new bikes, I decided to take the 150KN for a test ride & see what I thought (This is for my first bike). After calling every stockist in the illawarra and sydney, I ended up going to Scootering in Manly to take one for a test ride. I rode it around the block, abt 4-5km and bought it that day. $2600 with 1 year rego, delivered to my house in wollongong. The bike arrived that friday (three days later) and after riding it all morning it stalled at an intersection - After working with some mates and the dealer over the phone (and about 5 fuses) we found out it was an electrical problem and the dealer organised to bring me down a replacement bike in another three days, which he did without a single complaint and at no extra cost to me, which was great. Since then I've been riding it all around the place, taken it down the coast for long highway rides and just around town to uni/work. It handles well and hasn't skipped a beat. As a learners bike it is well set up, it's able to reach 90kmh no problems and is more than happy to sit on 80kmh all day long, which suits me fine because I'm capped at that speed on my license anyway. The dealer also spoke about getting a new sprocket made for it which could boost the cruise speed to 100kmh, something which I will be looking into when I get my Ps :-) For a learner, commuter or just a rider on a budget this bike is worth a test ride, I 'm definitely happy with it :-)
