I have had a Piaggio X9 for two years, but got an opportunity to buy an 07 Burgman Exec with 6000 mi on it and in beautiful condition -- bought it and in the few miles I´ve put on I know I´m going to really like the extra power and weight. I´m 67 and never thought I would ride anything on two wheels with a motor. Here in Kemptville, Ontario Canada it is a 6 month or less hobby but i look forward to every hour of it.
