Default Scooters???

Motorized scooters are all the rage (at least in the Denver area). Newspaper front pages, television time, they even have scooter gatherings. My question is, if you really dont want a car because of the gas mileage issues, why not buy a motorcycle?? At least then you could actually drive on the highway. I dont know. Im sorry, but all of these scooters are getting to me.

ive rode, built, raced and sold gas scooters lol. i remember when i started a petition to change the law in California when they tried to make us all have license's to ride em'. well the days of the scooters have passed and i still want to ride but my car is my responsibility and hobby now........but i still wouldnt mind a motorcycle lol

a hypertuned 50cc 6 speed 2 stroke with 25hp is cheap fast and reliable... plus in the off road style they kick *** on dirt too.
