Hi, I have ridden an 05 250 S.Y for a season and love it. A excellent club bike with a smooth delivery, great bike for hills and mud. I have had a few problems. The main fault is recently my middle box split. I am not a small chap ( all muscle..Honest..) and what appears to have happen is the bike compressed, the shock bared down on the box and drove the raised plinth with the casing number through the ally'. Excellent !!! After talking to N.B this is a design fault and required an angle grinder, mastic and a repaired middle box. It all seems ok now . The only other moan is the amount of effort required to remove the carb'. I seem to spend a lot of time lately in streams and smelly ponds and this frequently evolves a strip down and carb' clean. You have to remove a considerable amount of bits to get the thing off. My lounge is only tiny and this can make life difficult in small houses.... After ridding several types of bikes i must say the Scorpa has certainly been the best at Club level. I would recommend them every time.
