So my 2007 Vento Li was stolen right out of my work's parking lot. I haven't been on here in some time. Lucky for me Progressive is paying out 1400 for her. ;D
So I've got a question. I'm going to go after something new. Been really thinking about a Yamaha Zuma or the C3. I love going fast, but at the same time I was getting in a lot of trouble with my Vento. C3 is a 4s fuel injected. Looks nice and rides great. Any thoughts?

C3's are nice but they are also slow, and upgrade parts are hard to find and expensive. If I were you I would go with a Zuma or Ruckus.

Yeah I called the Yamaha dealers around here. One has one or the other. Zuma is about a 30 min drive and the c3 is about 10. Both are gonna be around 2400 for everything out the door.
I'm not currently holding a valid license because of speeding issues and a lot of cops around here know me. Kind of why I said I was getting in trouble on the Vento. I test drove the c3 Saturday morning top speed was around 40 with me on it. I weigh 155 about 5'10. Hill speed was around 30ish.
Think I may go with the Zuma though. I owned a Eton Beamer and I've heard their a lot alike. I loved the Eton too. Power wheelies all day.

Sorry about the scoot, but I'm glad you got paid. I'll let these folks help you out, I've never tried to pick out a scoot that won't get me into trouble. lol Since you aren't looking for lots of speed, stick with a 4T to get the best gas mileage.
