Hello from the colonies!

Hi everyone, I am a new potential maxi-scooter rider located in Canada. The scooter market has really started to pick up over here but it still has a very long way to go before it even comes close to what you enjoy over there. I've signed up on your forum because you Europeans have so much more experience with the models I am interested in, namely the TMAX, the Gilera Fuoco and the Piaggio BV500. North America hasn't even seen a TMAX until this year so no one knows anything about them. The Fuoco over here is rebadged the Piaggio MP3 500, and again no one here knows much about those either. Hopefully by early September I'll have learned enough about these machines to make a wise choice.

Hello!

As you live in Canada and you have some harsh winters I'd go for a Fuoco as you'll need that extra wheel on the ice.

Hello and Welcome. Have fun choosing your'e new Scoot. Wozza on here highly rates the T-Max, but I keep telling him to calm down, and to remember that a Gilera Nexus is almost as Good. Laughing

Is the BV500 the Beverley?

Hi Jehan. Welcome to the forum. Lots of experienced scooterists here.

I'm a little south of you ... Michigan to be exact. Where are you in Canadia?

I'm waiting for my TMax . Perhaps this week
