Yes everyone, the handlebars were crooked. A quick trip to the dealership a few weeks later and they fixed them. Thanks for watching!

Just don't get the whole 'embarrassment' element of scooter ownership. A bike is about freedom! Whether powered or not, massive or small, it doesn't matter what you're on, as long as you're having fun! Great video - I'd happily own one based on this vid alone 😊

You are one of the main reasons. I bought a 150 ADV. I have owned a lot of motorcycles and this is the most fun I have ever had

Welcome to the ADV 150 family! Great to see others enjoying this bike. What I like most is how simple riding a motorbike can be! You'll have lots of fun on this.

I have a 2021 ADV 150 with about 1100 miles and I love it for my first bike. I am averaging 117 mpg and have hit 65 mph top speed. Great scooter and great review!!

I rode a Honda 750/4 for years until I tried a Honda scooter about 20 years ago. Hey don't wave at me , screw it. Love my scooters

One of the nicest looking scooters out there. I want one.

I had a 150cc scooter for commuting for a few years. You're right, those things are FUN! And handy, with all the under seat storage. I'd totally rock one of these.

I have over 5,000 miles on my 2022 Honda ADV 150 and it has really loosened up. Top speed about 67 mph and getting consistently 108 - 118 mpg.👍.

I just did my first oil change at 600 miles in October. Winter is coming in Iowa so riding time is limited. Very pleased with performance and ride at this point.👍

Gorgeous bike! I have the Honda PCX and I love it (they don't sell ADV's in my country). It's so good for quick trips to the shop, the storage is fantastic, but they're also just so fun to ride. I'm a learner rider, and I feel like it's the perfect bike to get started on. There's no embarrassment here, Honda make a fantastic scooter, and I'm super proud to own one.

It's the great scooter / bike out there. I owned it since Sept 2019. It's agile, nimble, pretty good mileage. All of you got to enjoy good riding experience on this ADV 150

I'm a motorcyclist And always have had an eye on a cool scooter. Personally, I really like how the Japanese custom scooters look, all low and long, 250 cc powered... You've got a nice looking ride there!!!

"...strike while the iron is hot..." I heeded your words and bought mine in February of this year. There were four ADVs in the Spokane, WA area, three in Spokane and one in Coeur d'Alene, ID. By the first week of March, all of them had been sold! Thanks for those words and for your inspiring me to buy it. It would've gnawed at me for who knows how long if I had missed the opportunity to get it. Please keep pumping out the ADV videos! We are a small group for now but I think that will change over the next year or so!

Great video. Thanks for your assessment and comments. I, like you, have never rode a scooter but this ADV 150 looks very nice. I'm currently shopping for something in the 125 to 150 class. There is a lot to choose from out there.

Awesome ADV!!! I picked one up at the end of July!!! Enjoy! Ride Safe!!

It is a instant gas mileage guage. This is my first scooter in decades and love it. I had to wait six months to get it. I also think they will hold their value.

I put a deposit down on an ADV 160 and I'm happy to see others loving their ADV. It'll be my first two-wheeled vehicle. Probably a Transalp in my future as well if I know myself well enough.

Wonderful! I recently bought mine and passed my basic riders test. So looking forward to riding my Honda ADV150!

I am moving to the Philliphines and been already looking for a bike over their and this is one of the bikes I have on my list to test ride once I arrive in May. thanks

Had mine, for 15 months now. Lov.e it, first time back on a scooter or bike for 50 years. I agree re cruise control, I did a small road trip recently and my right hand got stiff, age I expect!

Great video and initial review, thanks so much for sharing! Enjoy and have a fantastic day!

I agree handle bars was a little off and it was also nice to see someone break in their stuff like I do

just recently moved to Bali from the state and bought a used Adv and love it, i used to ride cbr600 anf the r1 in cali, but truth be told i love my Adv better.

I was just thinking about the handlebars, right before you said something, haha. But, she's definitely a gnarly looking scoot! I'd love to get one, just to play around with.

You are the second “scooter guy” I have found on here (both by complete accident. That said; you both have the same “happy to be here” personality and it’s awesome. I’m going to find some “scooter folk” and see how my night goes. I need positive people in my life DESPERATELY! I won’t ride a scooter, but I like the options on that screen. I nerd out over that stuff. If it had a military time option; oh man. A Corbin seat person too?! Cool. Fun and reasonable people; the lot of you. I hope you enjoy your day and I’m going to enjoy this short adventure. Thank you

Thanks for the demonstration and video, a very nice scooter. I have the same fun experience on my smax 155, cruising around at 60mph, top speed 75mph, everyone should own one scooter

Nice! I've owned 14 bikes in my time, including my current HD Ultra Classic--fully loaded touring model. I love my Electra Glide, but it's not more fun than the scooters I've owned--Honda C70, Honda CH 250, BMW C650. Scooters are great fun! Your ADV 150 looks like a blast! hehehe I need to downsize! Thanks.

Nice review, that scooter would make a great little commuter 👍

Congratulations! Happy for you that you found what you were looking for. Nice first ride video! Looks like its going to be a fun little ride for around town. I'm looking forward to your next video on it. Gas mileage, storage and how your break in period goes. Go have some fun!

Awesome! I've been eyeing those for a bit. Had a Yamaha 125 I miss at times. Look forward to see how it does...especially cruising and top speed on freeway. Also up hills. I'm sure it will be just fine. Congratulations!

cracking little bike... its funny how as ive gotten older...these smaller fun bikes are more appealing.... im age55+ done all the sportbike and pretty much EVERY type of bike.... i now still have an NC700x honda... but i dont really use it much now because my 200cc scooter is just soo much fun round quiet country lanes here in UK ..

I agree that the handlebars look crooked. What was your final thought after getting used to the bike?

Hey there . I recently bought a 2019 Honda PCX 150 for $1500 on offer up and let me tell you it’s A LOT bigger and heavier in person so please be aware of that haha . I did a lot of practicing at the parking lot since it’s my first motorbike (wore all of my gear) and it’s a joy to ride. The stigma is crazy here in the US about scooters but it shouldn’t matter because you want it because you like it. :)

this looks like a little beauty for a first bike. i need something small and simple to drive around the burbs and get to class/work.

I'm going back and forth between this and the PCX. Leaning more toward this every day. Nice video. Thanks.

I rode a Lambretta 150 to High School and enjoyed every mile. Even though all my friends were riding the New Honda Super 90's. Yeah, I'm talking late 60's! The thing my friends wern't aware of was that 150cc 2 stroke motor would smoke those little Honda with ease. Dad brought it home after a TDY in Italy in 1964, so I got it as a hand me down. I'm paitently waiting for the Honda ADV 350 to come to Texas. I mainly need the 350 Scooter because that 150 would get me run over out here in the sticks where the speed limit is 75 on the Staste Highways. Would love to have the 750 but want something I can hang on the back rail on my Motorcoach and we would never need a 750 for what we do. Which is explore the back roads and mountain roads for sight seeing.

"We're ridin dirty and let me follow the break in instructions because I'm that guy." You Sir pass all vibe checks. I'm copping a scoot scoot...

Awesome video. Pick mine up 12/29/2021 and I'm loving it.

I have one too , love it . will back on it in October after 2 1/2 years away .

From GB great review 👍

I did mine for 3000 kms loop north to south of Philippines. W/o any issues, very nimble vs my bigbikes. Nice

It is so funny you were mentioning the handlebars being crooked. I just bought the pcx and noticed the same thing so I was eyeing your bars too right before you said they look crooked. They appear crooked to the left while mine were crooked to the right. I put the front wheel between my legs and tried to crank the bars the corrective direction. It was dark when I took it for a test ride tonight but I think that was enough to move it the 1 degree or so that I needed to fix it.

Thank you for sharing the video!

Scooters have come a long way. That’s a cool looking little dude

I would wait for the bigger versions. Totally worth it

I never thought I'd see the words "adventure" and "scooter" together.

Grom/Monkey/SuperCub/Trail 125/ADV150 are avail here in Tampa Bay... Dealerships can't list 100% inventory on all apps, so go in-person to see what's ACTUALLY there. Ya might be surprised

Am considering getting a bike,have never operated a motorcycle before,would you consider this a good starter?

I just bought one love it.

It's very well known model here in the Philippines 🇵🇭 when it's released, enjoy and ride safe 🙂

I wonder what it would be like going on a longer trip with this. If it can maintain a steady 55-60 Miles per hour I’m sure it would be fun. I’ve seen pictures of it with a top box and hard panniers.

Awesome! Enjoy! Look forward to the content with your new scooter!

Awesome scooter, with side and center stand.. I started in 1984 on a honda aero 80 scooter. I've also had a honda silverwing and sh150 scooters. Nowadays I've settled on, for now anyway, a larger "scooter" with dct transmission, the bagger honda goldwing dct. My dct experience began on the very scooterish NC750X dct with storage. As I get older, and don't need to cruise comfortably at 70 mph, its back to smaller scoots. Enjoy.

8:48 I was JUST saying the handle bars look crooked, and then you immediately said the SAME THING! lol

that side stand engine cut-off was the result of the high number of some certain country rider that forgot to fold their side stand back in before riding

LOVE FROM MISSISSIPPI USA 🇺🇸

really cool scooter! i've been considering getting one since i'm a student and a car just isn't in my budget great video !

I was so close to buying one but found a clean used forza 300 for a price that I could not pass up. Love the look of the 150. I flip bikes just to experience different rides.

Seriously considering selling my FZ600 for a scooter or a Honda DCT. The afternoon bumper-to-bumper commuter crawl home is great for friction zone practice, but not much else.

Thanks for this video..too bad we can t get this from Canada.i ll defenetly go down and get it from there...😉👍

Always cool to watch your videos👍

The handlebar is a bit cricket for me too, but since we imported it from Thailand, the handlebar is cricket on the right hand. At this points after so many videos, I think it was cricket on purpose because in the US, the handlebar is cricket on the left hand.

I’ve had a 50cc Suzuki Let’s 5 for around 12 years for getting around Hiroshima. Absolutely love it, but wish I had a license for a 150cc.

9:35 No cop would pull over a scooter. Lol. Wild man. This is the same enjoyment I had from the UK Top Gear.

This looks too damn good. Really want one now

I'm in the UK, waiting patiently for the adv350 to be announced and a release date,,, the xadv is nice but to expensive

I like these scooters just wish they had 175 or larger engine. My pcx tops out at 60mph. Wish it did 60 comfortably instead of topping out at that.

Just as I noticed the handle bars being off you said it. Lol. Great bike!

These are the types of scooters that Americans are going to want to have, ones over 100cc. I think the 24 model will be 160cc

My favorite thing to remember about looking like a dork on a scooter is that when you're riding a cool big-boy bike, [almost] nobody thinks you look cool on that, either 😅✌

That’s a very nice bike💨

9:20 you've just found the reason why I generally do not let my motorcycle riding buddies ride my maxiscooters. I've seen one too many near spills when people want to shift to second gear.

I really want one I'm so excited for next months

My Ninja 400 was on sale for $3150. Traded it for a Triumph America (Brit Fat Boy) and some cash which is even more comfortable than a scooter.

I didn't know you were Jim Carrey haha. You sound like him and very nice scooter!

In a way looking at the Handle bars While your riding it dose look Crooked like it needs to go more to the Right, it doesn't look straight. did you ever look at that to to see if it was an issue ? Another great video keep them coming :)

I have a Grom but even with a crap load of mods I still feel like I am wringing the bike out to cruise at 60mph. I am 5’6” and about 165lbs so I am thinking this adv 150 would be better suited to cruise at 60mph. I will probably install a performance variator and cvt clutch.

Scooters are better than other motorcycles

Great bike, looks and performance. However, with a 32.6" seat height, I'll need a step ladder too.

30 years and 14 bikes. I've never had the balls to buy without riding. I normally go to Daytona BW twice a year not for the parties but for the demo rides.

Great review 👍.

Yup that's awesome, so is mine I need an m class 2 enforcement to go higher speeds. I'd like to use the lane on 40+ mph roads instead of brake down lane.

Good video I like the bike but waiting to see if they bring the adv 350 to USA . If they don’t I’m buying this one

in indonesia, the bike is cheaper, but the quality is day and night,, the paint job is estremely cheap,, but the US version looks like have a thicker paint job, good job HONDA US

Thanks for the fun video

Nice review. I’ll buy one in SEA. Those handle bars were off a bit.

The dark/gray model looks awesome, nice scooter,,, there are a ton of mods out for it....

If they brought the 350 to the United States I'd be interested. I don't know why Honda insists on not releasing anything over a 150 here.

Hi Gas Works! This is my first time checking out the channel and I just noticed your in Yakima!!! How cool, I'm from Yakima as well and have a bunch of Personal Electric vehicles (Surron, Nami and V11) Looking to possibly pick up a Honda as well, do you do group rides locally?

When they can make at least 500cc scooter, I will become an owner of one.

My Honda Click 150 cost me 2000 dollars 4 years ago. Just bought my sis in law a Yamaha Mio 125. It has larger tires full digital gauges and larger “body”. 9 months old, it cost me $1400. New cost was $1700. Waiting to hear how much US dealerships gouge customers.

"activate the insurance on this thing" Awesome video though! thanks for sharing

Awesome scooter 🛵

i have a Honda Vario 150 for use in the city, beats driving (& parking) any time.

My dream scooter someday... 2nd choice pcx

I had zoom 125 it was fun but I sold it tmax is come out with 560cc for U.S. market I'm absolutely going to buy it. So fun and easy I hope my streetglide doesn't get mad at me? She will have some down time lol

The LCD dash display doesn't light up? On camera it seemed dark and hard to see

looks like a motorcycle pls stay safe been hit bad on a a bicycle multible times 3 years ago i am taping out

Perfect choice, enjoy 👍
