Riding home is the only sure vaccine against buyer's remorse.
I did contemplate trailering mine home at first because I somehow became convinced that I'd drop it leaving the dealer's driveway. But I rode it and it was great.

I trailered my new bike ( it's a 2000 ) home recently - 250 miles away.
I then put the wrench to it at home. It's in good shape, but I think I have a electrical ( coil, module ) or fuel delivery issue - cuts out a bit. A trailer was the good choice for me. A new bike, should go from the start. Still I like to put a wrench on the fasteners before I go a long ways. Up to you.

Congrats on the new scooter....Greetings from Alaska. I had the same question when I flew to Colorado for my bike. Should I load i onto a trailer and haul it back to Alaska. Then the devil sitting on my shoulder stuck the fork into the side of my head and off I went. Over the mountains and threw the woods stopping often, letting it cool down which also gave me time to pull the bugs from my teeth since my lips were not covering them
Ride it man........Ride it..
Ride it man........Ride it..
