StraightBallin asked: I have decided to buy a moped (or electric scooter) to use casually around my neighborhood (not for extremely long hauls).
Since I don’t know much about mopeds, the only place I went to was vespa.com. Most of their options are extremely expensive. I’m looking to spend no more than $1,000.
I’m looking for recommendations about obtaining one. Are their other good companies besides vespa? Are their moped/dealer shops that I could visit locally to actually see the different options.
Should I go and test drive one, like I do with cars? Or is this something I should simply buy online (and go that route).
Any other things I should be looking for?
Electric bikes
Raccoon Wounds asked: Pocket bikes are those minature motorcycles that go 10-30 mph. They are about 1-3ft tall and come in gas and electric. 1 liter of gas (or charged battery) could get you 45 miles or more. So far I have found only 1 pocket bike that can go to 65 mph. They are meant for riders that are 10 and above (must have good hand eye cordination). I live in Davis California and as you probably know we are developing the famous “flying car” at UCD. We all are considered “hippies” so we try to find a better way of transportation. Now Davis is the biking capital of the world, meaning we promote biking very much. I just need to know why? Anyway thank you for reading this!
