Curious about scooters

[Pogo2]

Hi AJ and welcome to the scootering pages.

There are 6000+ KBers and not doubt 6000+ opinions on what bike/scoot to get. Regrettabley there is not one size that fits all. What is most important is what works for you.

There will also always be the bike vs bike, bike vs scoot and scoot vs scoot brigade amongst us.

I went from a BMW to a scoot (some cynics will no doubt say "whats the difference") and I really enjoy it. Yes I miss the power etc but my Beemer cost me $1000 a year regardless if I rode it or not in insurance etc. Scoot was originally brought for commuting but I find myself just riding it for the fun of it.

There are alot of scoots out there to choose from and no doubt there are some cheap and nasty ones as well. Seariously look at PGO, TGB and Peugeot, I brought a PGO as it was middle of the road pricewise (and I am really pleased with it as well). It was hard to justify (but some will) the price between my one and a "similar" italian one at $2000 extra. Despite what I just said I really would prefer a Gilera VRX or Nexus!

IMHO get at least a 150 or bigger for real world transport. It's not really about what you ride, getting out there and doing it is the main thing.

Remember it all about YOU

Happy scootering (or biking)!
