   Anybody here own a scooter?  I need your opinion.
  I'm thinking about purchasing a 150cc scooter to get to and from my apt and grad school.  I've never owned one, but I've researched it for the last month or two, and I've found the following one to be the best deal.http://www.rightwayatv.com/detail.cfm?id=668But I don't know anything about engines, parts, ect...  All I know is that I want a 150cc and the 1.2 gallon fuel tank should be big enough for how far I want to travel at any given moment.But for those of you who may own one, do you see anything wrong with the scooter in that link, or have any advice that I should watch out for when ordering one from an online company?  Thanks.   
  I haven't had a scooter for a few years, but it seems fine to me. I mean, how much do you think can do wrong with a ridable motor-mower ;-) One thing to note, those scooters advertised do not have windshields, so you will want some kind of eye-protection to deal with insects... and try not to smile too broadly :-);  Make sure it's legal!Texas, for example, issued a law that set down certain rules that would be in effect unless cities decided to enact their own laws. My city chose to write its own law and banned scooters above 150cc and either did or did not decide to treat them like bicycles (I really cannot remember, and I was in that meeting...). Anyway, I would feel like such an idiot if I got ticketed for breaking a scooter ordinance, so that's my recommendation!   ;  Isn't 150cc pretty big? Hardly a lawnmower, when you consider than you can get 50cc bikes.   ;  150cc is a good amount of power. Gives you enough power if you need to use it. I'd think about getting one with a windshield though, I'd hate to have bugs splattered across my face by the time I get to where ever I'm going :p
