Motor Scooters
by Ignatz Pepitone
 What type of motor scooter do you need?
Motor scooters offer great gas mileage and are a cheap
form of transportation. Today motor scooter
manufacturers and motor scooter dealers offer many different models
and brands of
motor scooters. There are gas
powered motor scooters and electric motor scooters.
Gas powered motor scooters have small wheels
and a gasoline engine. Motor scooters have come a
long way since the old-fashioned foot-powered
scooters that date back to 1921. Fast gas scooters
are what attracts the public to use gas and not
electric. The
electric powered motor scooter is much
slower and has a shorter travel distance. But
remember either gas or electric will serve your
needs for cheap transportation. It's your decision.
Remember gas powered motor scooters are more
powerful and go faster speeds than stand-up folding scooters or electric scooters.
With a larger fuel tank added, gas powered motor
scooters can travel further distances. Motor scooters may not be permitted in some
areas so check your sate DOT scooter laws in your area before purchasing a motor
scooter.
Electric motor scooters are generally heavier
and larger. The extra weight causes them to consume more power
and go shorter distances when compared with
gas motor scooters or stand-up folding scooters.
Average miles are around 10 to 15 miles and then may
require a recharge the scooter battery. Electric battery-powered motor scooters
are used for short distances around the
neighborhood, school campus or store. Motor scooters
for the handicapped are called mobility scooters are
typically electric.
Folding scooter or stand-up motor
scooter has two wheels are are usually use for
short distances around the neighborhood and are also
called children's scooters. These kids scooters are
used for tricks and are very light-weight and
compact for children and young adults.
