Scooters are generally known for short urban commutes, but riders are curious how the SR 160 Carbon fares on longer trips. From its sporty design and wide smooth line to its powerful engine, it seems to be apt for extended rides, however, comfort, fuel efficiency and stability on a higher speed are all in question. Some owners have taken their SR 160 Carbons on weekend getaways or even longer tours, but others contend it's best used only in the city. The long distance riding potential of a scooter depends on many factors including seating position, wind protection, storage capacity and fuel tank size. It’s hard to say how well the SR 160 Carbon performs outside its comfort zone of urban streets and short trips when you’ve got conflicting experiences and opinions.
