Issue 73: DAELIM B-BONE

ReviewWinter is a time when not many of us choose to ride just for fun; the majority of us, given half the chance, would sensibly leave the scooter at home during the worst of the winter weather – but sometimes we just don’t get that choice. A bit like the snowy day when this brand-new and very saucy Daelim B-bone arrived for our exclusive T&G test...

Issue 72: SYM GTS Evo 300i

ReviewA few years ago I attended the official launch of the SYM GTS Voyager in Provence and found the scooter to be well worth swinging a leg over. Fast forward to the present and SYM have updated it to bring us the GTS Evo 300i – and boy has the scoot grown up!

Issue 69: Peugeot Speedfight 3

If you ask anybody aged under forty to name a modern scooter, the Peugeot Speedfight will more than likely be one of the first names to crop up – not surprising really as the model has been around since 1997 and has sold a staggering half a million units around the world.

Issue 68: Peugeot Satelis RS 250

Peugeot's Satelis range has taken the maxi scooter market by storm, with multiple engines to choose from and specification and extras to make the mouth of any sceptical buyer water. Not content with the versions already available the French manufacturer has added another to the family, but is it worth the extra dough? Phil Turner found out.

Issue 67: Sachs bee

If you want to inject a bit of style into your daily ride, retro is the way to go. As Phil Turner found out, you don't have to pay vintage prices for that vintage scooter look either.

Issue 63: Twin Peaks

A couple of years ago I had a conversation with joiner, Dave Briggs, an inventive fellow from Grimsby. At the time he’d just put the finishing touches to another of his gorgeous auto Lambrettas. His next project was going to be a bit special though...

Issue 62: The Yamaha Giggle

Us Brits tend to take ourselves far too seriously; the stiff upper lip prevents most of us from wanting to stand out from the crowd. We don’t dare to be different and we’d rather blend in than become the focus of attention.
Our scooters are often just as bland as us and...

Issue 60: Honda S–Wing 125

Honda may not claim that their new S-Wing 125 will broaden the mind or spice up your love life, but their latest stylish commuter scooter will certainly put a spring in your step after effortlessly getting you to work in the morning.

Issue 59: Kymco Xciting 500i

Those KYMCO people have been busy of late. Not only is there a bevy of new machines on offer for 2007, but alongside these new bikes, a host of improvements have been implemented among the existing machine line-up.
