I just moved to a new place, and it's about 20 minutes drive local to work. Lately my friend just bought a Honda Metropolitan (2008 model, 2 tone red/white), and I think I'm falling in love with those lil scooters. The only problem with that Honda is it is only 50cc and top speed is only about 40MPH.
So I've been looking online for scooters and I found out there is a large market of Chinese knock offs that offers 150cc for about the same price as the Metropolitan. If you know about scooters I would like to ask you for your opinion: Are the Chinese Vespa knockoffs (Roketa, Dragon..) as good as the Japanese Vespa knockoffs (Honda, Yamaha), what about those American Vespa knockoffs (Tank, Lance, SYM, Genuine Scooter)? Another question is, those claim to be American companies, their scooters are STILL made in China right? What's your take? -------------------- |

Get a moped! All 49cc and go about 30-35. Slap on a 80cc big bore kit and gear it right, you can do like 45-50!
 Not a Motorcycle under 50cc! |
