Get your kicks

My Yamaha Vino 125 is a 2006 model. The following years to 2009 models are the same scooter. I absolutely enjoy driving my scoot who I named Raggedy Man after the Mad Max movie Beyond Thunder Dome. I live in NJ and take the scoot out in temperatures down to 15 degrees F and it never fails in too sta...rt instantly. People look and point and come over too talk about Raggedy Man and always tell me how cool the scooter looks. The Vino gets about 70 mpg(not 96 as it is rated for) I can cruise at 55 mph all day on level roads but come down to 45mph on steep hills. From a light I can leave other vehicles in the dust. One drawback is the limited suspension travel which gives a punishing ride on rough roads(frost heaves on NJ roads where the asphalt raises up in a ridge). Until I lost my job I was traveling 5 miles each way to and from work.If you dress properly for the cold the winter ride is very pleasurable Read Full Review

ouch, my aching back

Fun until you realize that if you are an inch taller than 6 feet, that your body contour is completely out of whack. I needed 3 ibuprofin 2 hours after my first ride just to manage the lower back pain, all this while riding 30 m.p.h. in light traffic. I can't begin to imagine what it my be like du...ring a white knuckle ride in heavy New York traffic on a Friday rush hour commute. Ugh. Avoid this ride, just really designed for a petite woman, Read Full Review

Great Mid Level Scooter

I bought my in early 2007, I have put over 2,000 miles on it and no problems to date. I cruise mine all over town while getting 80mpg and up to 55mph. Those the scooter doesn't prefer to go that fast, 50mph is the comfortable top speed. It takes off fast enough to pass most cars though is a bit s...luggish when trying to speed up after 35mph. For the money I paid, this scooter was perfect. I am going to upgrade soon, but out of preferance and now having more money. I am sure I could ride this bike for many more years. I am five foot eleven, 180lbs. Read Full Review
