I bought my X9 250 (2001) only 6 months ago..... this model comes with a Honda Foresight Engine, and needless to say, its bomb-proof! The rest of the bike has not presented any problems so far and I've luckily joined an X9 owners club online, who can answer almost ANY technical query I have.

This bike comes with bags and bags of storage space under the seat, and as for the Piaggio original back box.... you could lost in there its so big. The bike came with 6500 miles on the clock and a full service history, and I paid £1300... you can get them cheaper, but beware of buying a donkey of a model, which has been mis-treated.

I've personally serviced my bike, replacing oil, filters, coolant, brake pads & fluid... and also had a peek at the drive belt... which is still like new... and doesn't need to be replaced until around 12000 miles...

Enough dribbling on... if you take care of these bikes, they'll take care of you... don't twist full out on take off, cause you're just gonna create problems with your clutch and cause the drive belt to stretch, fray and snap. Piaggios are generally reliable, although I've heard stories of the electrics being a bit dodgy... I haven't got a single complaint about this bike... it's the most comfortable bike I've ever owned, I'm getting 70/80 mpg... and that a majority of city riding (in london!).

GREAT BIKE!
