How cool of YOU to share your ideas with others! Thank you! I've done 3 Iron Butt certified rides and would like to add this to my ride list next year!
Good advice. I could even use about 3/4 of it if I'm lucky enough to ride the next one. It was a huge disappointment not to be able to go this year. I don't have a burning desire to win but would love to finish.
Looking forward to doing the scbr in 2025. I wanted to get a Yamaha xmax but a lot of people said the 125-175 cc was more competitive so I ended up getting a. 2024 adv160. Not a fan of the smax a little too small for me leg room wise. Felt kinda cramped the used ones I looked at. But now you got me wondering if I should have just gone with my initial idea of a 300 class scooter and just riding for fun and comfort.
It would be hypocritical for me to tell you not to try and be competitive. :) I’m glad I gave it my all in 2023 but I am looking forward to no pressure in 2025. I just wanted people to have a good idea of what to expect and why you may or may not want to try and win. I’m not a big dude and the smax is barely adequate for me so I totally get it. They are a sweet machine though and I’m glad I’ve got it. I will be riding it in 2025. There’s no wrong way to do it and the experience is amazing. I’ll see you in 2025 on whatever you decide is best!!
i wanted to do the 2023 but life got in the way. but i'm going to do the 2025 . one way or the other. if i have to find the nearest dealer and buy a new scooter to ride. but going to try and do it on a burgman 200
@@bennieaust awesome. I was hoping so. After all that tank work you put in. It would be nice for Yamaha to bring the S max back. It's a good midsized scoot.
@@midwestmotovlog7968 The smax is a great scooter for just about anything. I have had larger and smaller scooters and the smax balances it all out very well.
Nice Fish young man.

The Burgman 200 is a great choice. A couple of the top finishers ride them.
Hope to see you there in 2025!
The kid caught a bass lol😅
He can fish! I had no idea that happened until I was editing the video. :)
Did you repair the SMAX?
Believe it or not, I’m still waiting on a couple parts. But yes, it’s getting completely repaired.
