Scooters Knowledge Base
Scooters...? ...anyone remember those scooters you used to get in the 80's early 90's? They had mag wheels like a bmx and tyres that you could pump up. They had a fiberglas deck you could stand on and also stunt pegs. I think they also had breaks but i'm not sure. Anyway I have been trying to hunt one down on the tintertwat but I am having no joy. I think they might have been called "scootec" but i'm not sure. Anyone with any info, and who is willing to impart that info would go right to the top of my Christmas card list!!! Thanks very muchly

What are the laws regarding 150cc scooters in Virgina? From what I understand I have to get a class M endorsement on my license. I would have to have a learners permit be watched by someone ect. However I know no one to watch me with one who has a valid motorcycle license. You can bypass having the learner's permit by going to a motorcycle education class. But they teach you on a motorcycle. I want no part of a motorcycle because I seriously have issues with things that are not automatic with a clutch. The classes in my area at Apex Cycle Education say you can't use your own bike hence my scooter. So I dunno what to do. Anyone know if I am reading the rules right? If so are there classes offered that Virgina DMV accepts for those riding scooters not motorcycles. Because they operate diffrentlly but similar.
What are the California laws for motor scooters? Both the electric and gas ones you stand on. Is there an age limit? Or anything that defines if you can ride it on streets or sidewalks. Because the DMV website is kind of vague and I usually thought motor scooters were safe for younger children, and not just over 16.

How hard are scooters to assemble? I am looking to buy a Bali 150 cc scooter from one of 2 places online. One place alite scooters has some assembly required.

Can you drive motorized scooters on shoulders/in bike lanes? I'm considering a cross country trip on a motorized scooter (sort of like a Vespa type thing). I was originally planning to do it on a bicycle, but I realized I don't have the endurance for it. However, I'd still like to follow the route I've read about for bikers (which follows roadways, but is always driving on shoulders or in bike lanes). Are motor scooters allowed to do the same thing? What is the general rule for this? Is there a speed cap? Thanks
Why does wal-mart provide those scooters to land monsters? I think it's fine that Walmart provides scooters for crippled, elderly, and injured people but just being so fat that you get tired of walking is ridiculous. Don't those blubber butts need all the exercise they can get? Have you ever looked in their carts? Nothing but sweet tea and oreos. Not to mention that they look at you all mad if you get in their way. Don't forget the whole milk count fatula.
Do scooters ever have the engine in the front? I was thinking--if moped/scooters had the little engine in a compartment over the front wheel (and driving the front wheel), then there could be a huge compartment over and around the back wheel. Also, can you drive those scooters in the snow safely?
Those little red scooters that people use while shopping or gambling in casinos? Has anyone noticed that quite often those people are about 400 pounds and probably cannot walk more than 10 feet with out passing out? In my opinion, those scooters do more harm than good because it encourages lazieness and make it ok to be a big fat pig. In my opinion, these little scooters speed up the death process because the person never exercises. What do you think?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of scooters? My boyfriend doesn'r drive, and has a bit of a complex on autos.

Why do scooters have small wheels compared to motorcycles? A 250cc motorcycle has much larger wheels than that of a 250cc scooter, why is that? Comparing the same cc's of both vehicles, wouldn't the power be basically the same? Alfredo G is right about the hp, I'm not sure why I asked that power question. But the real question was why the small wheels? Pretty interesting answers too.
