The Walmart Scooter Saga Continues!

[spandi]

As some of you may know I reported seeing (and closely examining) a 260 Linhai scooter that was parked in front of the local Walmart here in Palm Springs. Well, as I was pulling in to America's favorite shopping destination yesterday, I spied what I took to be the Linhai parked in front of the store, only to discover that apparently the gentleman I talked to about his scoot has made a heck of an upgrade, because it was a Burgman 650! So with trusty bike light in hand, I gave it the once over, and it was a gorgeous machine to say the least. Really wonderfully made (like a two wheeled Mercedes) But after looking it over closely (and reading the vin tag, with a GVW of 1000 pounds) I felt it's more of an automatic motorcycle than scooter. Don't get me wrong, it's a stunning machine, but I'd hate to be trying to maneuver around traffic with that much scoot.
