Hi everyone,
I know this is an unfair comparison, since the CBR250R is a motorcycle and the SH300i is a scooter for old lads and people who don't know how to use a clutch
To be serious: I'm not sure what to buy, a CBR250R or a SH300i. The CBR is a MOTORCYCLE, so that's a great plus in terms of looks, sportiness and contact to driving due to manual shifting.
The Honda SH300i, is Honda's best selling scooter in Europe, together with the smaller SH125i. It puts out 27 hps, has a slightly better acceleration than the CBR250R, has the agility of a motorcycle due to 16" wheels, and is EASY TO RIDE due to automatic shifting.
Besides all theory: Do we have anybody here who has driven both types of 2-wheelers and can enlighten me on his experience?
Here's some pictures of the beauty and the beast (or, well, the kitty):
Background: I'm looking for a fun bike to cruise around countryside roads, with easy handling, lightweight, and sufficinet acceleration. From this undemanding point of view, the comparison might not be as unfair as it first seems.
