Nice choice, great looking scoot. The price is prohibitive to me right now but if I could I would. Power to ride! I've owned a couple of suki bikes and their bullit proof, great choice.

Without the correct MCO here the state patrol inspecting it won't give you the paper work the DMV needs to issue a title/reg. The vin has to be verified unless sold by a qualified dealer in CO. 1 reason I'm leery of buying a scoot online, any issues it's all over the phone/mail or net to cure it. PIA!

For folks who have to park their bikes in a parking lot, condos/apts. A 2 watt solar panel works well to trickle charge your batt. Mine has alligator clips or a car acc port to hook up to the batt. The panel is no bigger than a loaf of bread in sq area, HF carries them and the price is right.

It's been years since I've see real gas with no ethanol in it at a pump. I've lived in major metro areas where pollution is a problem so maybe it's an epa thing. Here we have no choice in CO.

You could buy 4 quality scoots for the price of that psycho.

I think that helmet is a disaster waiting to happen. On a bike you need all your senses to stay safe and hearing is right near the top.............nice helmet though.

That's been a scooter/mc/bicycle's biggest pain in the tush since the 70s. Lots or cussing going on when that happens LOL.

I'm 6ft, 220lbs. How does the like fit you for comfort. Legs cramped, lean into the bars, any issues you see for my size on that bike? I like riding straight up and arms extended with a lil bend in my arms. Any input? I'm buying this from a dealer far away to save hundreds and free shipping so a test isn't possible........any other pitfalls at all with these? TIA.

That's one of the issues here, only 2 Kymco dealers with different owners in the whole state here.

So if I can break 29 on my bicycle it has to be registered? Or is it only motor vehicles. Here in NM we often hit speeds around 45 on descents with our bicycles... Are there big enough hills in IN to do it? What exactly was your ? again? It seems disembobulated if you ask me. |

Bicycles have to obey the speed limits too, legally.

Spandi if those HID lights are those blue blinding low beams folks are using you should be shot then hung just to be sure. Those lights are annoying and dangerous.

Legal speed limits are exactly what they say, limits. Go faster your guilty of speeding, Even to pass your not allowed to exceed the speed limit.

Been looking into the Lance and Tomos 150 models thinking I could get one for about 2 grand out the door but that isn't happening. With dealer fees and shipping the costs go up to mid 2ks. At that price the Likei is the scooter I'm looking at. Can get one for 3k out the door. It's FI, disc brakes both wheels, trunk plus 163cc. Those that say these can be had for 2k don't live near here cuzz that ain't happening..........anyways that's the scoot I'm leaning towards unless a screaming deal comes up on a 250 or so.

Every state is different. Here in CO it's called the low power scooter law. 49cc and under you need a Valid DL and carry liability ins. 51cc and up you need a m/c endorsement.
