Advantages: the style the grace of this beast
Disadvantages: No spare parts
This is lovely scooter to ride, plenty of muscle to get you really going the weight of the bike keeps you nice and hugs the road, a bit slow on turns as you have to take a bend at a wide angle. But it does turn heads for its style even harden bikers want to have a go on this machine. The downside to all this style is the lack of spare parts in the uk APRILIA REALLY NEEDS TO PULL THERE FINGERS OUT AND GET THIS PROPLEM SORTED, for me this proplem has made this scooter not reliable as work machine, like many I also use my scoot to get to work, 1 part has taken over a year to get and some damage I had meant my scoot was in the repair shop for 3 months awaiting parts. If you use your bike to get to work this sort of wait is just not on APRILIA. My next scoot will of which I am about to buy two will not be APRILIA which is sad because I do like this machine. I got asked recently about the cost of a scooter well with this model it cost about £5.00 for 70 miles and free insurance in the first year is good, oil to fill your machine costs again about £5.00 from any good tesco store, a service to keep your machine in good nick costs from £70.00 to £90.00 but good deals can be had here, its still cheaper than running a car and more fun.....

- 18/02/01 How much does the insurance cost after the free year?

- 18/02/01 well you get many free features, and free first year insurance, a scooter cost for 70 miles of travel about 5.oo pounds, but its no good if you end up off the road for 3 months due to lack of spare parts |

- 10/02/01 Sorry to rate SU but you only concentrate on a few aspects of owning an Aprilla, those who read dooyoo looking for a complete review on the Habana would still be left with many questions. For example ownership and running costs, safety, reliability etc...
If you add more details please let me know and I'll gladly re read /rate! |
