If you could afford any scooter you wanted what would you get? All of them.  I dunno. I have so many scoots I'd like to at least try out. A direct injected Aprilia 2T 50, a big 600+cc like a Suzuki Burgman, a Sachs Madass... the list could go on and on. I have noticed the 2105 Yamaha SMAX. It sounds like a fun little scoot to me. 155cc LC EFI 4V 4T that claims about 80MPG with a 2 gallon fuel tank. I've read 3 reviews claiming 70-80MPH speeds. It's supposed to fit a full face with room to spare under the seat, which no scooter I've ever owned or rode will do with my XXL helmets. It's nothing terribly fast or exceptionally good looking, but I like to ride and I like medium to small sized scoots quite a bit so it sounds like it would be good scoot to rack up some miles on. |

I'm with you on the smaller scooters. I don't have an m endorsement so it's 50cc for me. Ever since I seen the Aprilla scoot I like it. I'd say parts would be expensive but it would be worth it for f.i.

Those vespas are supposed to be good ones. I had never even heard of one till I met this girl at work that was Philippine or something like that. She said her mom used to ride one on the island they came from.

probably an sr50, would really like an rs50 but don't think that counts as a scooter   |

Is the rs just 50cc? If so that's the fastest looking 50 made lol

The Aerox has the same engine as the Jog RR, but in a higher tune as standard. Has a big radiator over the front wheel, so handles like no other scooter. Just one of the most popular scooters for modifying, so a vast selection of parts to customise it  |

I prefer a 4T. The 2T scoots will probably be illegal to even operate in a few years due to emissions. They are easy for the cops to spot since they lay a trail of smoke behind them. I just happen to like my 4T scoot design also, with a few improvements. Frankenmech, you just bummed me out, you killjoy! Lol! Sadly, you are likely right. |

from dealers that sell them or sold them.
i didn't find anything online about them but when i was thinking about buying one i was told they are regulated until 2017.
i know that new rules for reducing greenhouse gas are supposed to be going into effect in 2017 but not sure how it relates to scooters.
