Poll: 50cc or 150cc Scooters? ?

Question

Which do you think people like more? I am considering buying a scooter but I was just curious to what people like more between the two! Me personally I think 50cc are great as long as they go at least 50mph. Because you don't need a license and insurance!

So which do you think people like more 50cc or 150cc?

Answer 1

no licence or insurance?...where do you live?

Answer 2

It's possible to go 50MPH on a 50cc scooter. But, it's not gonna happen on a stock scooter- you'd need to spend a lot to mod out a 50cc 2-stroke, just de-restricting it won't get you that fast.

Be careful about the "no license, no insurance" part- that usually only applies to mopeds, and most 50cc scooters have too much power to qualify as mopeds- depends on your state.

If you want to go 50MPH+, might as well spend for the 150. Genuine Buddy's can get up to 65 with a 150cc engine.  

Answer 3

Well I know in CA you have to have a license and insurance.

If I had to pick between a 50 or 150, I would go with a 150cc, so I would have the extra power.

Personally I own a 500cc
