Is the scooter going to be a 2nd vehicle or the only vehicle?

just get a motorbike instead you can put a basket on the front for the shopping and of a weekend you can pull some fat skids or maybe a wheelie to impress the lads who will just laugh at you on a scooter

He asked a question and you just abuse him without any knowlege of his situation. You sound like a super fit expert, show us all how you walk 2 km in 45 degree heat, or with an injury or if you are not a stupid P plater child and your time is actually worth money and/or you have to do that 2km trip 20 times a day? Now to answer the question: Pushbike or electric pushy www.electricbicycle.com.au will not require rego, licence and you can use footpaths and bikeways so there is less chance of being run over by super fit p-plate experts. Scooters are cheap and if le 50cc do not require motorcycle licence. $2-3k gets you a shiny new one. Older s/h trailbikes can also be cheap but often are a bit sad and might need a birthday. I ride my "scooter" to the shops all the time although I do it for fun more than convenience. |
