Hi, i was looking at getting my girlfriend a scooter, so that she can go fro rides with me. Does any one have any exerince with 125 or 150cc scooters? how fast do they go? Is it good enough for main roads. Anything bigger then that seem to bulky and I dont know how she would do with the gear shifting of a bike. The auto bike just coast way to much.

i agree. get her into a msf course to learn the basics and then a lower power, lightweight beginner bike. it's so much better than a scooter. scooters are made for 2 different types of people: 14 year olds and old men with DUI's.

she is the one who wants a scooter. we were at the bike store looking for a new pair of gloves and i showed her the 250 ninja, but she liked the scooter better. plus they had a nice pink one.

alright, cbr04 is right. we won't pick on scooter boy anymore. we'll pick on cbr04 instead![:D]

i guess there's nothing wrong with a scooter. i don't know the situation or the girlfriend, but if she is intimidated by the clutch/gas/separate brake thing than why not? 2 wheels is 2 wheels i guess.

the 125cc scooters are ok i guess, if thats wht ur gf is looking at i dont have a problem with them personally, but wouldnt she like at least a 125 geard bike, i think the 125's cn get atleast 55mph tops, but ya can gt it de restricted and race cans so think into it.
