  • Piaggio BV 350 review. Test ride. Should you buy a used Maxi Scooter?
    This bike is currently up for sale with ‪@in2moto480‬ in Warrington, Cheshire here’s

    Low mileage. Loads of fun. Impressive performance.
    Thanks to ‪@OxfordProductsLtd‬ for keeping me warm on another bitterly cold day.

      They are great bikes to have as a second bike. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise 👍

    I love a maxi scooter. Definitely have to buy one, one day.

      Get the 23 Yamaha Xmax 300. It's much better in every category

      Apart from looks?

    This was my scooter, and the third one of these I have owned. I think the strongest point for this model is its performance. You will never be embarrassed away from the traffic lights. You neglected to mention the huge amount of storage under the seat, room for bits and bobs, and an accessory socket in the front compartment. 75 MPG overall. Reliability 100%. My only issue has been wind noise from the screen, improved by cutting 75mm off the top, and eliminated by removing it completely. Glad you enjoyed your ride.

      I really did enjoy having a ride on it. Out of. Interest did you part-ex it for something else?

      Royal Enfield Hunter 350. I wanted a motorbike again before I hung up my lid. The Hunter (20HP) is no match for the Piaggio (over 30HP) in terms of performance but so much more rewarding to ride.

      I love the Hunter. It’s my favourite Royal Enfield. Loads of fun and easy to throw around the bends. 👍

      75 mpg? Imperial gallons or US? I'm getting 64 on US octane 93.

    I would rather ride a BV than a Beverley.

      The BV is a Beverly! I was given the choice of badges when I bought it. BV350 is the American designation.

    I am 5ft 11inches/180cm and I found the seat make this scooter feel cramped. After 20 minutes of riding, I really REALLY wanted to be able to slide back on that seat. If that was possible, - then it woud be a wonderful scooter with LOTS of storage under the seat

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  11 місяців тому

      The bench style seat is loads better for that. Did you swap for something else?

    • @bjarkenielsen8515
      @bjarkenielsen8515 11 місяців тому

      Yes, I went with a Yamaha Nmax 155 instead this summer holyday. It is possible to stretch out your legs on that one.
      I considered both a Honda Adv 160 and a Honda Adv 350, but they weren’t available a the destination. So, I never got the oppertunity to try them.

    Do you think the scooter is still good with 30K (km) on the clock? Im a bid worried. Really thinking of buying it.

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  11 місяців тому

      All depends on how it’s been looked after. Good service history helps.
