Hey everyone! Just got my new scooter. I wanted to know if anyone knows of good places in Springfield to practice riding so I can get used to it! Oh I have a Benelli X 50. Thanks!

Find a new subdivision that not been built up yet but has the roads all paved,or some country roads will work.Avoid gravel roads,high traffic areas,curvy roads to where traffic can't see you. I have also rode out at green lawn north Cemetery, very little if any traffic several turns to practice on.

thanks chevylver i try but the best advise i can truly give is just get you a full tank and start riding around and if you see twists in the road dont fear them embrace them cus you will find out with a two stroke you will really enjoy the "twisties"

I rode my scoot to work today. It was a rush. I think traffic hates me tho. I'm trying to think of a time to meet up. I work till 10pm though until sunday. I might have Saturday off though. But I work 1 -10pm next week too. -.-

So I've been riding my scooter a lot more than when I got it. Gotta say it's definitely fun and scary at the same time. And if you see this today 89jogger I'm fixing to take it out today if you're free!
