I lusted after Helixes for years back in the day, but I never could find one priced right. Helixes are such a pleasure to ride, IMO. Instead, my family and I have had 4 or 5 Yamaha Riva 180s and a Riva 200. It's funny to see some people's faces when a scooter passes at 70+
My brother who owns an INT650 still has a Riva 180 and 200.
It was a bit of an odd duck at the time; the first "maxi scooter" before the term was coined. I got ribbed a bit by my punker than thou friends until the the first time I pulled pizza and beer out of the trunk. I was the only one I ever saw in Orlando riding one which made me a bit of an odd duck as well (odder than I already was).
