Scooters?
 
Any lame-Os like me riding them? I have a Honda Reflex I tool around on and use for commuting.

65ish MPG and keeps up with traffic fine. Lots of storage too.

Unless you live in a big city like NY... I just ask...

WHY?

i have a 87' motomarina sebring 'ped, but it sits in my washroom in pieces. Never ridden. Been wondering lately about trying to find a slightly bigger motor with a manual tranny for it though, turn it into a proper bike. Might try to fix it then :lol:

My ex-BF has a Helix he uses for commuting to work. That thing is super comfortable to ride. He can do 65-75 on the freeway just fine.

His weekend bikes are R1 and V-max. :moto:

I was thinking about getting one for commuting, but the thing is just too small. My legs get cramped up. So I got an EX500 instead. 50mpg and it will do 120mph as well as it is narrower and easier to split lanes. Brakes suck ass though.

haters! i don't think of riding a scooter and riding a motorcycle as the same activity. A scooter is easy as hell to ride, cheap to maintain, and I don't worry about it in the parkinglot. Think of it as a cheap, automatic, convertible car that you don't give a shit about.

When I want to go ride, I hop on my motorcycle.

It's real nice in a straight line...it just kinda floats. The turn-in is a little vague though...:lol:
