Pros and cons
Advantages
No shifting
The automatic transmission lets the rider focus on steering and traffic instead of changing gears.
Belt final drive
The belt drive avoids routine chain cleaning and adjustment.
Light weight
At 88.0 kg wet, it is easier to push around or maneuver in tight spaces than a heavier scooter would be.
Things to consider
Drum brakes at both ends
Expanding drum brakes front and rear do not offer the same braking feel or heat capacity as disc brakes.

Estimated ground reach
Both feet likely flat
You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
