I have a Bandit 600 myself and this is for me and the wife to potter about on.

The bodywork is in pretty poor condition but I am going to attempt to re spray this.

I picked it up and rode it 40ish miles home on the motorway with no problems at all I managed to squeeze 7 quid in before this trip.

My previous scooter was a piaggio skipper 125 4 stroke and they are completely different machines the typhoons steering feels twitch although it does need a new front tyre but other than that no problems and it s probably just because I am not used to the size.

Storage under seat is fine for your helmet although not much more and top speed on mine is 70 mph compared to 60 on the skipper.

All in all I like the Typhoon but the only reason I got rid of the skipper is because my wife couldn t get it off the stand.

It sports an air-cooled, four-stroke, 124cc, single cylinder lump mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT), capable of producing 8 Nm of torque.

In addition it has a low seat height of just 30, which meant it can accommodate riders with smaller inseams, and, it features an under-seat storage compartment, which can fit a helmet.

Also, it is a safe machine, thanks to the front disc brake, as well as an agile one, thanks to the alloy wheels.
