Answer 2

The scooter isn't going to hurt anything in a crash so the insurance is just to pay for your Emergency Room visit (this isn't going to really happen but this is how the Insurance Company looks at you).   I think a brand new Ruckus would be $1,100 a year or $800 if you don't want your bike repaired if you crash.

I had an early type Ruckus and it was so much fun.  One time i'm scooting down the street at 35 miles per hour and a police car pulls me over with lights and siren.  He said that a burglary had just taken place and witnesses said the attacker had sped off on a motorcycle.  I almost laughed out loud.  Nobody on a Ruckus looks like a dangerous bike gangster.  But for a few minutes i was America's Most Wanted.

Get the scooter.   Of course, in few months you will want a 250cc bike.  That's life.
