New to me Scoot

I decided that I had enough fun with my TaoTao, Lancer 150, and upgraded to a Suzuki, Burgman 400.
I've had the Lancer for 2 years now and gained a lot of knowledge and experience from it. It was my re-introduction to riding after having sold my Honda, Shadow years before. I enjoy riding and was feeling somewhat restricted on the 150, and also a little leary about the dependability.
I did some research on the different Maxi-Scoots and started looking for a Suzuki. I found a couple on Craigslist, but one close by, was a 2009 with less than 2K miles on it.
After buying/registering it, I've changed all the fluids and cleaned it up. I haven't gotten into the clutch or variator yet; I was a little intimidated when it was apart. After watching some Youtube videos, I see it's essentially the same, just much bigger than I'm used to. I enjoy the fact that I can take it out on the Parkway (Garden State); it will cruise, with ease, at 75-80 MPH.
Sadly, I sold the TaoTao the other night ... I had some mixed emotions over that. It went to a good home, though ... a young man and his GF, wanted his & hers scooters. Earlier in the day she bought hers and he seemed quite happy with mine.

You may have seen the Lancer here ...
