How much gear can one carry around on a scooter? You might as well pin a big 'Sissy' sign to your back if you're gonna ride around on one of those. Get yourself an old beater, crash it a fews times, THEN if you still feel the need to ride around on two wheels, go get your class 6 license and find a motorcycle of no less than 400cc's or you're just choking on peoples exhaust. My two cents. - Mon, 21 Mar 2005 10:03am

I think scooters are fun and I'm looking for one too, eventually. I'm sure it's also fun to ride around on a Ninja 750. The 19 year old that died two weeks ago on day TWO on his MC learners license found out the hard way. Maybe he wants to learn how to ride and a scooter is a great start. - Mon, 21 Mar 2005 2:00pm

That was pretty damn gay. If you are insecure with your masculinity you can always spray paint it flat black and wear a nazi helmet. But if you feel you are a man no matter what you ride, you'll be fine, save some money, and pollute a whole lot less than driving some beater. - Mon, 21 Mar 2005 7:15pm

They are pretty cheap to buy new. Our car died so I've been riding my dad's for $20 gas a month if that. Only use it to and from work tho. Sell 1 of the 6 you could probably buy like 3 or 4 new scooters. Unless your lookin for a ghetto old one, then good luck to ya. - Tue, 22 Mar 2005 12:36am

You can get the 70cc Harley replica scooters and 110 CC street bikes for cheap.

Joe, all i'm sayin is if you're a new driver, log some driving time in a car and when you crash (and you will crash at least once) you'll have a better chance of walking away from the accident. Experience is something that can't be bought. Then start looking around for a pocketrocket.

Inhalien, same point. The reason that kid died can be chalked up to lack of driving experience. A scooter is no jumping off point, if your intent is to get your class 6.

User, if you're secure in your masculinity, you don't use the derogatory meaning of the word 'gay' in your posts.

See you out there on the road, Joe. - Wed, 23 Mar 2005 1:12pm

I know the rental joints off-load their used scooters -- looked into it myself. There's one on lower Douglas across from the conference center, used bikes ranging from 700-1500 or so. Caveat emptor! - Wed, 23 Mar 2005 7:37pm

Joey. You're only 14, you can't get your license for another 2 years. and you couldn't drive any moped or cheap scooter from your house to shows. because the highway would kill you on a moped. they don't exceed 50. ever. - Wed, 23 Mar 2005 9:28pm

actually most scooters will do well over fifty. The ones at the rental place arent very good examples as they are usually only 50cc's. They do that because anything 50 cc's or smaller you dont need a motorcycle license for just a regular license. As for that being expensive for used scooters, you might wanna look into prices a little more even used ones usually go for a couple grand. If its a vespa used ones can get up to 4 or 5 grand sometimes depending on the shape and model. - Thu, 24 Mar 2005 10:38pm
