I takes time, but you could tear them down and part them out. Or put them on CL as-is for $100-$150 to make a little profit... Tearing them down to part out can be a pain in the butt. Sell them 4T's!

Yeah, I may do the CL as a whole. Of course I asked the GF "Would you mind riding something this size?" Her answer? ... "Will they go faster?". *sigh* Anyone want to sell me a 45mph+ scooter for the GF? I can spare a kidney, some of my liver or perhaps I could fix your computers for the next 5 years.  |

Hold on, let me get a life insurance policy on her first before I get her that. Wait, she might actually like that. *erases browser history* |

lol- I'm about to take the little Zip out with GPS- I swear this thing is doing 45!
EDIT: Nope- 35mph top speed GPS. I guess a fairing-less small frame scoot just feels fast!

My hopped up Taotao Thunder will GPS at 48mph..and I am on the donor list for a Kidney..we may have a deal here.. bad part is.... Chippewa..therefore my blood type is AB- so it is a very rare blood group.. So in order to make a trade ya may have to go visit a reservation and knock off a Native American. To be AB- they would have to be..Sioux..Chippewa..Crow..Blackfoot...or Apache.. None of use ever came in contact with the Rhesus Monkey..therefore we have no RH factor.. Btw a tidbit from my medical background..when they talk about an RH factor..RH means it came from the Rhesus Monkey.. How do you get that Rh factor? I won't go into detail cause it is pretty perverted..so I think you get the message..but I do know Michael Jackson had a pet Monkey and he was RH+ |

So all your GF cares about is going fast? Give it time and maybe she'll be the one sneaking in scooter performance parts orders.
I've never been one to make a profit on scoots, lose money on all of mine, but I'd think you could make more than your money back parting them out. Whatever metal parts aren't worth selling, save for scrap metal. Looks like they'd need a lot of attention to be good riders.

Sorry to hear though dude, I hope something comes through soon for you. And as far as MJ goes, he was a hybrid to begin with anyways.  But yeah, I've had dealers near me tell me stay away from Tao Tao, but from what I'm reading here, you guys get them running like champs with a good PDI and a few bucks in parts. I'm considering ordering one just for the hell of it and do as you guys said. |

Well, she just doesn't want to be one of those people that get 10 cars behind them contemplating homicide lol. Me personally, I can't blame her. I mean the driving she does with it it doesn't take her much longer to get places than it takes me in a car. With city lights and the way people drive around here, a 35+mph scooter is not much faster than my car. |

While in the Military I loved Italy!! But the restaurant owners are insane..they feed you like it is your last meal..they just keep bringing food...and if you refuse it they get upset.. I was like "Giuseppe I am going back to the ship..not the electric chair..no more bread please oh and no more Wine..my glass is empty because I am done" lol |

Yeah, we love to feed people till they're on the verge of a food coma. Please, you think I got this size by eating like a rabbit? No. I grew up living around the corner from my grandparents in the Bronx. When we moved down here, my grandparents weren't very far AND my aunt lived on the other end of our road so... Yeah. Oh and the only things my mom could cook were in the microwave or a cake. Dad was the chef, so I was with him in the restaurants since the ripe old age of 11. SO yeah, I'm italian. Now, would you prefered that fried or in sauce? |
