I'm in two stroke heaven!

I bought this scooter because it was street legal without a motorcycle certification in my state, yet it had enough pep to keep up with all the traffic on my seven mile commute. I'm getting about 97 mpg and a top speed of about 46 mph with my 185 lb frame. (The speedometer reads higher, but li...ke most scooters it reads a bit optomistic.)
The only trouble I had reliability wise was a loose ground wire to the starter at about 1,000 miles that was readily fixed by a trusted mechanic at a nearby motorcycle repair shop. I'm now at 2,800 miles and the engine is as smooth as butter and the scoot is nimble and alot of fun to ride.
This is a perfect scooter for a new rider since it is about the fastest 50 cc scoot you can buy and it is about the only 50 cc scoot with dual disc brakes. The small engine displacement keeps you from getting into too much touble at wide open throttle and the brakes are incredable. Read Full Review

Great scooter so far....

Bought this scooter two months ago and since then it became my everyday vehicle which I use to go to work. Already put 400 miles + on it and had no problems so far. Scooters are just like boats. If you ride them regularly - they will last for a long time, if you let them sit and rot away - you wi...ll have problems on your hands. It handles very nicely, have a very fast acceleration (can't even compare with Zuma and Rukus!) and is comfortable to ride. Not to mention very economical. The 2009 model is equipped with the fuel injector as opposed to carburator. On the down side -too many plastic panels (but that how most scotters are anyway) and fairly expensive regular service.

Be weary of this bike

I bought mine just a few months back in July of 2009. I got two weeks of enjoyment, when it broke down on me and needed to be towed back to the dealership for a new fuel pump. It was replaced, but it took about a month to get the bike back. And, when I did get it back, it broke down again on me f...or the same problem. Moral of the story is, be weary before buying into this bike as it is not all it is cracked up to be. Read Full Review

Sputtering problem

I bought my 2009 Aprilia SR50 at motoworks in Chicago, I hate this scooter, when it warms up it sputters so badly I'm afraid I will get rear ended on this piece of junk. The biggest mistake I have EVER made. The dealer hasn't got a clue why it sputters and I'm tired of this shit! Read Full Review
