Anyone heard anything about Piaggio making an 850 cc scooter?

I have a friend with a Silver Wing. He's ridden lots of bikes and loves it. He can even embarass lots of guys in the twisties. Plus he can carry a case of beer on ice in the trunk. :-D :-D

I know, when I had my Kymco I had a locking trunk, underseat storage, it was great. I have bags on the Bonnie but pretty sure I don't like them (need them).

Wombat how do you like that Ural? Does it have 2 wheel drive?

It's probably the same engine as in the Aprilia NA 850 Mana and Gilera Ferro 850. But for some reason, I'm liking the Gilera Ferro more than the Mana. So of course, Gilera does not have any presence in the US. I have to keep the Aprilia in mind when I buy my next bike................

The Ural is great...lots of fun.
It only has 1wd.
The Gear-up and Patrol models that have the 2wd are great for offroading, but as there is none to be done here.........

I saw an article about that beemer a few years ago. If i'm not mistaken it wasn't allowed to be imported to the US because it had a roof and required to pass safety tests.

I had heard about it from some friends who wanted to get them because they had a roof. I think that the rider would still get a lot of wind around the sides. I'm curious of how they perform in the rain.
