your ass is getting ripped off if you buy a scooter for 2K+ IMO
there are alot of scooters i'd like, most are over $2k

Aprilia SR50 Ditech Factory
Honda 250 Reflex , zuki bergman 400 ~$4k
Honda Silverwing zuki bergman 650 ~$7.5k

they all serve a purpose and all roll on 2 wheels

Blah... no thanks... I'd rather have a motorcycle... not saying I would take one if it was given to me... but not gonna pay that much for one.

but then again... I also wouldn't spend over $30k for any vehicle... and god knows enough people do. so what do I know

I like how the author of the original article never even really owned a 600 before writing an essay about 600's and how they're not for beginners.......he just sold his 250 and is "currently shopping for" a 600/1000, and is "building" an old FZR-600 racebike in his garage.

His points are valid, but maybe a more credible source would be warranted.

HEY! Didn't you read that wonderful,thoughtful and oh so well written post by his majesty? You shall not purchase any bike before he has cleared you for it's possession! You do not have enough riding experience to operate such a dick-missile,you are forbidden!!!!
