Hey! I bought my first scooter yesterday. I got a great deal from a friend. $100 cash for a 2015 TaoTao ATM50-a1 49cc. It didn't run when I bought it, but half an hour of tinkering she purrs like a kitten. (dummy didn't have all the wires connected.) It has a few cosmetic blemishes. Some cracked plastic here, some scrapes there. Overall I think I lucked out. I have some plans for it. Nothing crazy, but I really love the naked look, like a Honda Ruckus. We shall see!

This is a great place to learn how to make it run better and keep it running. Bill

I have the easiest, cheapest fix for all the generic looking plastic, get rid of and join the naked frame cult.
