Mopeds & Scooters
The US has been slow to adapt mopeds and scooters over foreign countries that realized they were faced with over crowded streets and sky rocketing gas prices such as Italy. In foreign countries, you see scooters everywhere and they are considered a main mode of transportation.
The US enjoys one of the lowest gas prices of all the developing countries and the sales of mopeds and scooters have never really been huge compared to the automobile. Lately, with the Green movement, more people are taking a second look at the durable and dependable scooters as a source of transportation to and from work, or just to get around town. You actually see more of them on the roads these days.
If you’re in the market for a scooter, of course buying them new is the way to go and you can even buy them online and have them shipped to your doorstep. This will save you money over going to a dealer and having to pay a higher price. For those looking to save some money, finding used scooters used to be a hard proposition, but with today’s Internet, you can view online auctions that have plenty of used mopeds to choose from as well as view other on line vendors that offer great discounts on new ones.
If you need to do any freeway driving, then forget about trying it on a scooter or moped. They are illegal to drive on the Freeway in most states so you will have to plan your trip using surface streets. Many states don’t require the use of a helmet, but if you value your life then using a helmet is a good idea. While you might be very confident in your driving ability, it’s the people around you that you have to worry about because many drivers are oblivious to vehicles like mopeds and scooters.
We’ve put together both new and used mopeds and scooters for you to look through. Take your time and find the one the fits your budget as well as taste.
