Do I need a special license?
Yes, in Ohio you need a motorcycle endorsement added to your driver's license. We can help you prepare! You can legally ride with your temporary permit with certain restrictions until you pass the riding test.
Do I need insurance?
Yes you do. Contact your insurance company to find out how affordable it is to insure your scooter.
Will I save money on gas?
Well, our models range from 50-70+ mpg. If you use your new scooter to replace your SUV or car for commuting, than without a doubt, you will save money on gas. Beware, you might be on the road even more with a scooter because they are just so much fun!!
Can I ride this thing anywhere I want to go?
We can find a scooter for whatever fits your needs.
The 50cc scooters (max speed 35+mph) are best for around the yacht club, campground, or community where speed limits do not exceed 25-30 mph.
150cc's can easily attain 55-60 mph, so these can easily be used for commuting to work, store and just looking cool. It is not recommended that you attempt to ride the 150cc models on the freeway, though. Passengers can be ridden on the 150's for short rides, too (our most popular model).
200cc & up: these scooters might seem small in comparison to some motorcycle models, but they can be used for long trips, freeway commuting, and comfortable two-up riding. Capable of maximum speeds of 75-100+ mph. Anywhere you want to go, we can provide your ride!
Why don't I just buy one of those $1000 scooters on ebay?
To be brief, you will be throwing $1000 (or more) in the trash. Many of these companies claim to comply with all state and federal sales regulations, but since they operate from distant locations, they don't play by any of your consumer protection laws. Where are you going to take it for service? Who is their "authorized" repair facility? Many of these companies are pimping Chinese made scooters, which have cannabilized the most inexpensive scooter designs and then take the extra steps to save production costs even further by lowering quality and workmanship.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is...
How do I pay for this new toy?
We have financing available, although with the prices we offer, many people pay with credit card, check...and yeah we take cash :)
What happens if I need something fixed?, How reliable are these Vespa's/Piaggios?
With regular maintenance (oil changes, hub oil, regular service maintenance) these motors are good for many, many years. All of our new scooters come with a 12 month UNLIMITED mileage warranty. That's cool with us, they just don't break! Well...in the rare case they do have a problem, We have a Vespa/Piaggio certified tech on staff. If ANYTHING goes wrong, we can fix it...quickly. We can work on new, old and other model bikes as well, just give us a call! We also can repair any nicks, scratches or collision damage...insurance claims too!
