Is anyone using a Honda Vision 110 yet? I know the unit of preference on here is the PCX, but the Vision is £700 cheaper and 20kg lighter, which goes some way to making up for the reduced power.
I will have it on a fixed scooter carrier and have air suspension which is adjusted to supplement the rear end, outside of the scooter we barely use the garage as the under floor is full length and quite tall. As a result the load is fairly neutral.

Hi Phil
I have recently bought a Vision and am very pleased with it. The large wheels make such a difference over my previous scooter, to the stability and cornering.
Feels very safe and I am delighted with it.
Kind regards
Alshymer

This bike sounds superb and is a natural choice for us when we upgrade our peugeot speedfight.

What's it like two up? What's it's comfortable top cruising speed and what's it like up steep hills fully loaded?

My worry is it might lack the power of our current bike which although is only 100cc and is two stroke goes really well

Hi Barry
Although I have had my Vision for a couple of months now, I have still not completed the 500kms I like to do before opening it up.
However I have noticed no lack of power with two up or with travelling up hill.
It is a very comfortable bike, the saddle being much bigger than my previous Kymco.
Kind regards
Alshymer

Hi Alshymer

If it is not a too personal question Smile roughly how much weight it is carrying with two-up, please?

It looks a very nice scooter and as PhilK says it is cheaper and lighter than a PCX. Also, do you carry it on the back or in the garage of your MH.

Thanks

Michael

Sorry to keep asking questions and thanks for the info. Is there space under the seat for a helmet? I can fit one open face helmet under the seat of our current bike and one in the top box.

Can you self service it (oil change) easily. One thing I like about the Peugeot is it never needs any attention being a two stroke but it will use more fuel and two stroke oil than your honda.

If the vision proves to be a good bike it could be the bike of choice for motorhomers as it's so light

I nearly purchased a Honda Innova a few years ago. I presume this is the replacement? I liked the idea of larger wheels which the Innova and this new one both have.
What does it cost for tax and insurance for an inexperienced rider but with a full M/C licence?

The PCX and Vision have the same, slightly awkward, servicing requirements under warranty, but I do wonder if the PCX's extra torque and bhp will make it more useful in for example the Alps or similar two up.
I am just a bit concerned that the vision will be underpowered, we are 20 stone combined.

Hi
The weight of both of us combined would be around 150kilos.
I carry the bike in the garage of my 4.25 tonne Hymer B 694.
I used to carry my Kymco on the rear of my previous Hymer, but it was such a pain as it got so dirty and I never found a suitable cover.
Weight was always an issue although it was 3850kgs.
Weight is still an issue and so I could never carry a bike bigger than the Vision.
I don't know about servicing, although everything seems easily accessed.
Plenty of room for a helmet and other stuff under seat.
Kind regards
Alshymer
