I'm having some health issues and I'm too weak to ride anymore. I sold my FAVORITE scoot 2008 Roketa aka The Other Woman.  |

Oh rocketa, I'm so sorry. That's got to sux. My sympathies on both your health issues and being forced by said issues to give up something that brought you joy.
At least stick around the forum!

Sorry to hear that. I hope that you find another way to compensate for the loss of riding 'The Other Woman'. Strongs.

Depending on what your health issues are maybe a TRIKE would work for you. It works for me I cannot get on a two wheeler even a bicycle, so that is why I got a trike.

I agree with Alleyoop... Could be, you could handle a trike. There are several out there, both traditional and "reverse" trike with automotive steering on two front wheels. And, a Vespa or Stella with a sidecar is a sweet alternative!
I finally had to give up motorcycles due to arthritis. I just cannot climb onto a cycle anymore. Sadly, I can't even comfortably climb onto a scooter with a "semi-hump" frame like most 250 and up scooters. But I can ride a FLAT-FLOOR, STEP-THROUGH model. That pretty much limits one to an Italian or Taiwanese 250 or larger, and I chose a used Kymco Grandvista. Easy on, easy off and still highway speed capable. There are also many step-through 150's that are easy to mount, but you can find larger scoots that you can get on just like sitting on a kitchen-chair. And there are the various trikes. Hope you can ride again, but if not, please do stick with the site. Lots of good folks here! Sincerely,  Leo in Texas

What you can't do on two, you might try on three

Trikes can be fun too!
A friend thought his riding days were over until his wife asked him why not a trike to which he answered there aren't any that I like. She answered then make one that you do like.
Here is the results:
