Scooters were a bit of a stepping stone into motorcycles for me. I wanted cheap transport with a low purchase price, without stomaching $300 and a full training weekend. Back in college, I found a Honda metropolitan that was lightly used, in good running condition, and $550. Throw in a jacket, helmet and gloves and I was up and riding for under $1000. It's hard to describe how much that simple, slow and *cough* cute bike changed my life in college. I was working 30 hours a week, had about a 20 minute commute to work or school, and was very, very frugal. What started as an escape from burning gas and time in my car became my favorite part of the day. I found slower backroads to ride my scooter safely in traffic, left early, and felt revitalized every time I'd hop on the thing. One of the best parts was that even though it took longer to get to school, I saved a good 10 minutes finding a parking spot and walking to my classes. In Colorado, I could legally park in the bike rack. I surely recouped the purchase price of the scooter and gear between gas savings and parking passes. I cannot recommend enough how much fun it is to ride a scooter instead of a car. These days I've transitioned to motorcycles, but I'd hop on a scooter in a heartbeat!

[@robcampbell3235]

Yep ive got a zuma here in Mile Hi. Routefinding is part of the fun and free parking downtown combined with super cheap commuting make the scooter first choice for downtown runs.

I bought a 400cc scooter last January as my daily to replace my pickup truck for business trips and the timing of it all has never been better. While my colleagues are stuck in rush hour Friday traffic, I was already at home making dinner.

[@BladedAngel]

50cc mopeds are great urban warriors and good starters, but I just want to put my thought in. IT'S WORTH DOING THE MSF TO GET A HIGHER CC MOPED!!! For North American Roads, I use a 125CC Honda Supercub and wow it's so much better being able to go 55-65mph. That way I'm not getting trampled by traffic at 35mph at max RPM blowing out my eardrums! EDIT: Guys, I have motorcycles too...I just love scooters also. This isn't a mind blowing concept. IDGAF about "biker image". I ride whatever I like. I've done the MSF literally years ago. I don't understand the pissing contest that formed about needing to ride higher CC bikes. Who cares? I own a 1868CC M8 Softail that rides more like a piece of junk compared to my bro's ZX10R with almost half the displacement. Bikes are charming in all sizes, so just ride what you enjoy and let others ride what they enjoy...but my comment has proven a misconception about scooter owners...so maybe wave at a Scooter Rider next time. They might have a bigger bike in their garage than any of yours :)

I'm driving a Honda PCX (125cc) for couple years, and 125CCs are, in my opinion, the best ride in city for dry summer days. 50cc are a bit too slow and lack dynamics, anything bigger requires "A" driving licence category (in my country) and are also more heavy and less nimble to go through traffic jams.

[@sythenalpha2037]

Everything was weirdly either over engineered, or not thought through at all. And to fix anything the bike is gonna fight you like a drunken frat boy the whole time.

[@mayorofnow]

I was surprised he just said "Vespa" and "Aprilia." They're both subbrands of Piaggio in the same way "Scion" and "Lexus" are subbrands of Toyota. As such, not only have there been many distinct models over the years, but I suspect there's plenty of engineering crossover between scoots branded "Vespa" and those branded "Aprilia."

About twenty years ago, I rarely saw other people on scooters and mopeds. Now, my 49cc Scooters are cool! I have three of them. One is a Honda Metropolitan, with the trunk on the back. It is my favorite, super smooth, and 125 miles per gallon. One is a Genuine Buddy scooter, also with the trunk. I just added the trunk.. The buddy is a fast two-stroke, 47 mies per hour on a flat road! The other one is a new Tao-Tao, slow and junk, but it rides nice, and I really just have it for friends to ride. For super cheap it is actually pretty good. It pushes 100 miles per gallon. When the wether is bad and for great fun and hauling people or objects, I have a Toyota 4-door 4x4 truck.

I personally loved using the mid-way option: not the 50cc zippers, not the heavy and comfortable 700cc maxi-scooters, but a 150cc one. It was the PCX150 (mine was made in Vietnam). It was delightful. Super comfortable, completely shielding, not ostentatious or ridiculous, not laughably small or crassly large; sedate, but nimble. It had the traffic start-stop function and the engine that would start in quarter of a second, it had a huge trunk. Yeah, it wasn't very dynamic and topped off hard at 69 mph, which sucked for highways. But in a city, it was the kind of machine you FORGOT that you're even riding. Sit, go, maneuver, stop, get up.

In perspective: Taking into account one already owning a 2005 Volvo XC70 (~16 MPG City FE), assuming a daily (30 days/month) commuting distance of 50 miles and gas price of 4,9 USD/Gallon, not accounting for depreciation, it would take roughly 7 months for the Aprila to pay for itself, about 10 months for the Rockus and about 15 months for the Primavera (current replacement of the Vespa LX50). It is up for the reader to decide if the trade-offs are worth it, but you would be saving, on average, about $2 USD a day on fuel costs.

[@stoictraceur4794]

Thanks for the numbers!

[@basmca1]

And that assumes buying a brand new scooter and no maintenance for the car at all. I bought a used 8 year old scooter with 17000km on the clock for €600. It is now 6 month later, with 22500km on the clock. In fuel alone it have saved me at least €1000. So i am up €400 and can sell the scooter for €500 easy if i wanted to.

car insurance is about 4 times the price and also scooters rarely need maintenance so the saving are quite a lot more thats what I found after 5 years of having a scoot as my only vehicle.

A decade ago while living in the Miami area, I decided that instead of a second car, we’d get a scooter. The weather is pretty much scooter-friendly throughout the year and its main purpose was to get me to my carpool pickup site. When my peers showed up in their jacked-up 4X4s, Mopar big-blocks, and even mini vans, I was frankly laughed at. Fast forward to the market crash of 2008 and gas prices were approaching $4 USD a gallon. The laughs about the scooter subsided abruptly and a number of out-of-ear-shot discussions were suddenly cropping up with my carpool mates regarding the cost of running a scooter. For $1200 to buy a scooter, $20 USD monthly to insure it, and $10 a month in gas… the joke was not as funny anymore and became a serious consideration. I have not owned a scooter in years and am enjoying the cafe racer life. That said, my affection for scoots has been lifelong. Great video!
