This seems to be the lowest I can find the Chinese TaoTao scooter. $789.00 delivered Besides taking a flame thrower to this thing  , what other upgrades would you immediately do?  Thanks for your help. Steve Picture of 150cc Roman Scooter TaoTao  www.saferwholesale.com/150cc-Roman-Scooter-Moped-Italian-Style-p/tao-roman150.html* Update, never mind. The company Saferwholesale called me back after placing order and tried to pull a fast one. They wanted CC processing fee of $200 bucks. Not going to happen. Look else ware for a scooter store. |

After all was said and done with hidden fees, etc., this was the place that offered the best price for the scoot I was looking for: www.killermotorsports.com/scooters-and-mopeds.htmlMost sites have hidden fees. Be especially careful about mandatory "registration or titling" fees they don't disclose and you only learn when you are about to pay. Just by going to the DMV yourself with the Manufacturer's certificate of Origin you can save $100 off the hidden fees most want to charge. |

I just purchased TaoTao Roman 150 from Northeast Powersports in Scranton, Pa. for $799 delivered. I ordered it by phone (their number is 570-343-3977). It was ordered on March 30, and I received it on April 7. There was no other charge, and Bob, the owner sent me the MCO and a bill of sale right away. I received that on April 9, and on Monday the 11th, I went to the Nevada DMV and got it registered and licensed. I am not affiliated with Northeast Powersports in any way, it just does my heart glad to see some honest people out there. I have 50km on it, and just changed the oil with 10W-30 and final drive oil also with 80-90w. Thank you for reading. stevef222, powerzombie, rcq92130, tortoise |

Thanks for all the help guys. I ended up driving to Dallas Texas and purchasing a taotao 150cc from local DFW Powersports for 1K even. That included TTL and Taxes etc. Think still a little high but got what I wanted.

Nice find. Not sure what area you are in. But recently I had to take my Powermax 150 for my yearly inspection. Only place that does "motorcycles" is the local Harley dealership. They hated it until they rode it around the parking lot a few times. Then they had grins from ear to ear.
