Like a lot of people, I am thinking of buying a scooter primarily for my short commute to work and running around town. I want a larger cycle (at least a 250cc) that would be okay for possible short road trips (say 20-30 miles) even though that would not be common.
I am put off by the price tag on the big name stuff like Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki,Vespa, Piaggio etc.
I need something as trouble-free as possible since I am not the least mechanically inclined.
Also, I'm a good sized guy at 6' 3" and 220lbs so I want a LARGE scooter so I don't ridiculous riding it.
I have been looking at Kymco and Linhai. Both seem to have strong support and a good track record of longevity and durability. But I don't know anything about scooters so I am soliciting advice from you readers on these two brands (or anything else anyone thinks is really worth considering based on all I said above.)
Thanks for the help.
