They make scooters between 49cc and 400cc. Some of them do up to 65mph. I already did the throttle stop mod on it today. It goes about 41mph on flat ground. I could do about 29mph up this steep hill by my house. They make pipes, carbs, 70cc cylinders, and all sorts of stuff for them.

My girl is a Vespa scooter freak. We currently have three right now. An LS150 a GTS 250 and a Piaggio BV500. There all 4 stroke. The 150 does about 59mph and gets 80mpg. The 250 hauls ass and goes about 85 and get 80+mpg. The 500 is alittle less than a rice rocket and does about 120+ and gets almost 100mpg. We live up in the mountains in NY and they pull the hills no problem. The two smaller ones have small tanks, only about 2 gallons max, but the 500 has about a 3gallon tank.

 

I was totally against these stupid little things when she started going crazy but now I realize there pretty nice. We save a fortune in fuel being that we both have long commutes, over 60 miles one way, and surprisingly enough, you get alot of respect from bikers. Most real deal bikers really like them and sit and bullshit with you, the dickhead boat shoe wearing, mid life crisis, stock brokers give you shit but thats because of there little penis's.....

I would just tell those guys to go and have sex with an 18 year old in their miata.

Are they still oil injected or are they 4 strokers. My buddy is a habitual traffic offender and he has a 00'. It will pop up wheelies relativly easy. I was impressed. They are ok to ride to work unless you have to take a busy rural road with a high speed limit. I had to ride a honda ruckus for about a year and after a while I realized I was pretty much risking my life everyday, well mostly in the winter :down: . It seemed like people driving cages have little or no respect for you unless they've been there. Anyways, looks nice and it will be fun. It will definatly pay for itself in no time. Like I say about my Harley, it's so much easier to put gas in my bike than my truck. It actually feels good.

 

Enjoy :biggrin:
