At $2899 the new Piaggio Fly 150 is a terrific deal with fuel injection, 12.9 hp, and underseat storage big enough for two helmets! At the $3000 price point it's hard to beat if you like a smaller scooter. You could also consider the Kymco Like 200i...

Well darn I was going to mention a SYM HD 200 as it seems impressive . My Echarm has a similar design and the 16s do feel like a crossover from a scooter into a motorcycle as to me scootering is best with " doughnuts " which is fat low profile tires . Im some ways the handling is great but above 60 it is sketcchy as not enough weight is forward biased to keep the front tire planted down on the road . A buddy has a Jonway Rock Thunder with 16s and it handles superb but not where as good in quality like my Echarm . I would look at a CFMoto Glory since it has 14 tires , EFI , LC engine , disc brakes F&R , LED dash that looks neato , more HP than the GY6 , and best of all a 2 year unlimited mile warranty as long as the very first oil and gear lube is done by a dealer www.scootersus.com/cfmotoGLORY.html The CFMoto engine is a beast and needs nothing but good preium gas . I loooooooove Hondas as I had so many happy times on my collection . First off way to high of MSRP for that much you could buy a used 600 -750cc cruiser street bike or used car . The Hondas have a 1 year limited warranty for engine and CVT only and rear drum brakes instead of disc . I hate cabled drums as hydraulic discs are in every way better . CFMoto even covers light bulbs and tires and is transferable . Scrappy has most common parts here www.scrappydogscooters.com/CF150_4T_1P58MJ_Parts.html and if you look up any MRP reseeler they have proprietary parts that most vendors will not
