COLOR change

As for the color, I hated the extra dark front from the beginning. Come on Honda, a dark grey (gun metal grey metallic) Scooter with an even darker front is next to invisible in black/grey roads.
I wanted to go with a color like this on the Peugeot 206.
Why? Because being very good visible from every direction is your first line of defense.

Honda SWT-400 mods and tips

Honda SWT-400 personal log

My 2nd Malaguti Spidermax died with just 18000 km because of a broken piston ring and I need a cheap (<3000 Euro) and reliable big scooter. The selection is limited if you live on a small island.
I test rode a Kymco Xciting 500 (caburator model) what had a very bad acceleration and horrible hill climbing capacity - with only the rider. Yurks

Honda SWT-400 improved acceleration via my 4 slider CVT mod

When I got the Honda home the first thing next day was, I opened the CVT of the SW-T400 and checked the rollers. I found not 26 gram Honda but 21 gram Malossi.
Easy mod the previous owner did and made the SW-T400 respond well to the throttle and the rpm´s went high enough to have no problem with our 16% incline.
