Curious as to what people have to say, particularly people that don't live in a big city.
I have two old 49cc scooters (Honda Express II and some other Honda...an elite?) sitting in the garage, I got the Express II out today and got it running good and fixed nice except for the blown headlight. This got me thinking: would I ever be caught dead on a scooter in public?
I learned how to ride on two wheels on a scooter. I treated it like a dirt bike when I was a wee little lad, and had a lot of fun. Now I drive and work on older cars and motorcycles, and while classic, they have a real aversion to running more than half the time. But I couldn't see myself riding a robin's egg blue scooter at 30mph down the road.
Then again, with no required insurance, tag, motorcycle license, and often over 100mpg, I can see why others would.
Anyone else's take?
