I do not remember much about the voyage to Boston, for after the first few hours at sea I was dreadfully unwell. http://www.outlet0moncler.com

Like stu66 i enquired about a SH300i in NZ. Honda were vague and not very helpful other than to say it was likely to be expensive and they didn't think they would bring any more in than the two demo models. THey thought if it did come in it would be more than $11000. I bought my SYM Citycom for just more than half that and have done over 6000k and it rocks. More reliable than Piaggios (3) two of which I still have in the family fleet. Motorway effortless and not too cumbersome and heavy to move around in my garage. Love the look of Vespas (still got one - ET3) but not worth the money now just for the looks when so many other scooters outperform. SYM the number one for me especially considering performance, looks, reliability and value for money.

The Honda SH300I deserves The Scooter of The Year title. It simply is the most accomplished, best handling and safest scooter on the market.

So why did I choose to part with my exclusive, fully specified one for a Vespa GTS 300 Super? Mainly because I liked the looks and styling of the iconic Vespa scooter better. Call me superficial but in my opinion this is very important! The SH300I probably rode, handled and braked too good for my liking...more like a bike than a scooter. Now I know this comment could be bewildering to some, a scooter that handles like a bike surely is a great thing? But the Vespa, after the SH300I is a great and easy handling scooter itself. Steel frame and chassis ensures this, and being a bit smaller and lighter that the SH300I makes it a more enjoyable ride around the city and suburbs. I actually think the Vespa gets off the mark for the first few yards faster than the SH300I, another advantage for suburbia riding. I have only done 450kms on my Vespa GTS300 Super, but I can say that this is the best scooter (not perfect however!) I have owned, for my purpose and use. People look at it in admiration, and getting off and on and looking at the design of the scooter is most satisfying. It was only a couple of times when I was riding the Vespa in the pouring rain that I thought of the Honda and its superb ABS and linked brakes! If your daily journey is a long commute, or you carry a pillion or simply want the best package in a scooter, the SH300I is the way to go. Honda have come up with some sportier colour combo's, but lets hope one day the design will be slicker. I could have quite happily kept the SH300I along with the Vespa, but with a Gilera 180SP as the other scooter I have, really was surplus. Throw ABS on the top model Vespa, same HP as the Honda (or more!), a bigger fuel tank and this is getting close to the perfect scoot...! Have fun and ride safe. report abuse

Ketzal, thanks for your fun(ny) reviews that brought my attention to this scooter. No ABS in Oz but no rain either. One 20 minute test ride and the divorce was on. Bye bye SYM HD200 and hello Honda SH300i. I love it. Power and poise and it purrs. My riding is in congested 60 kph and on the freeways leading to Melbourne. Almost unbelievable. Cheers.

I love my Aprilia Scarabeo 500ie. I'm surprised there hasn't been a story on this bike yet. I do have to say though, I'll bet the compact size, smooth drive, efficiency, abs are what makes this bike so good. Anyone would probably agree... if anyone could justify the cost. Hell, we don't even have them here in the US.

I thought about buying a SH300 here in NZ I was told it would cost over $12000 here if they can get one in, no 300 is worth that in my books, so almost brought the Citycom but decided to Buy a Piaggio X9 500ie which is Soooo Much better and still cost less then the Honda, its funny how these three bikes were chosen as so many other scooter havn't been tested here....

We all can agree the top three scooter ride well, but I feel you should also factor in parts and repair. Nothing is more upseting then finding out your dealer do not carry parts for your scooter.

Would the Honda SH300 be scooter of the year if it did not have ABS? You see, in Australia it is only available without ABS. Also, great master, whats better value, the SYM Citycom at $7000, or the Honda SH300 without ABS at $9000? I am faced with this dilemna.
