Hi guys
I will move to HK in a few days and - being an avid biker here in Europe - I cannot wait to get on two wheels over there. Been riding a 1000cc superbike and a 600cc naked here but, knowing large cities, I know these will be hopelessly overpowered and overweight (and my clutch hand will die a terrible, painful death) so I'll probably switch over to the scooter world.
Bit of a generic questions, but: what is it like to ride a scooter over there?
I was thinking 300-400cc maxi scooter. Anyone happens to ride an Aprilia SR Max 300, Honda Forza 300, or Kymco K-XCT 300? Don't feel like splashing out for a Yamaha.
How are the dealers over there? European standard? Do they speak decent English? Can you haggle? Do they take care of insurance and registration?
How is parking? Any on/off street parking available in popular dining/partying districts like LKF/TST? Do valets accept scooters over there (no joke)?
Sorry for the very unstructured question(s), I am just looking to get started and avoid some pitfalls.
Many thanks for all input!
