That is cool. I have been thinking of buying the Roketa MC-114A 50- it looks like the pedal type, but has pegs instead. Has a kickstart and electric, hi and low gear, semi automatic so has no clutch. They run $750 shipped. Not to bad.. Be my sidekick when working on my 250cc scooter. A 50cc scooters in Missouri, one don't need to register it nor insure it. It is considered a motorized bicycle verses a motorcycle, so it is insured under the homeowners policy, like a bicycle. It does take a regular car drivers license to operate one, but cops never bother mopeds, unless they are doing something wrong( like not wearing protective gear, riding drunk, ect..Well I hope you like you Tomo TS Moped..

www.roketa.com/product/2610/0/59565.shtmlHere is the Roketa style moped. Looks pretty exactly like the Kinetic moped, without the peddals. Except this has a hi and low gear like the motorbike. No clutch so it is semi automatic- meaning it is still automatic. Right foot brake and right hand brake. Gear shifts on leftside on foot- hi is up-low is all the way down- and neutral is in the middle. And of course, kickstart and electric. Max speed 31 mph on level surface. I am one whom loved gears to shift- say one is traveling up a steep hill, well hi gear starts bogging down as it climbs, thus all one has to do is down shift into low and continue climbing. An automatic strains more to climb steep hills because there is one speed. www.tomosusa.com/pages/model/stHere is the model you are talking about. They are similar in style..Roketa has a little of everything. 3 different moped style scooters..

Looks like the Lazer-5 sold around here for $1,000. It's also been branded as a Wildfire.

Ya, why I like little 50cc scooters in general, is they don't have to be registered nor insured, in the State of Missouri. That if I end up in accident( say it is my fault) my homeowners insurance will cover the damage done to my vehicle and the other guys vehicle too. If it isn't my fault, well the other guys insurance will cover it. The reason why homeowners insurance covers 50cc mopeds, is because it is consider a motorized bicycle verses motorcycle by Missouri. Well a motorized bicycle or 50cc scooter, you can tow a bicycle trailer. You can go camping- load up a bicycle trailer and go. I rode my 250cc scooter today. Rode 30 miles on a 70 mph highway across the Missouri River bridge if Jefferson City MO.. It is fun too, but want something to get around on when working on the larger scooter.
