High gas prices lead a third of Americans to consider scooters {Autoblog}
May 23rd 2006 2:07PM The economic benefits of this are still questionable to me. Any scooter that is 'highway-worthy' and can keep up with 55-60mph commuting traffic already costs about 5 grand. That puts you in a beautiful 2 year old sport bike or a cruiser, both turning in 40-50 mpg. The only scooter advantage I see is that its complete lack of power makes the rider less likely to be involved in a triple digit single vehicle accident or traffic citation.
Then again my $900 beater still does 30 mpg, and the dark sunglasses that stop people from recognizing me as the Chevy Cav's owner only cost $150.
