* The scooter as fashion: if it is true that the modern scooter is being a descendant of the Italian Vespas or least 5-6 more decades, today has become a fashion, a "boom" ... and both fads like " booms "always take charge. If we buy the average scooter with a motorcycle gear of equal displacement almost always the scooter will cost, citing conservative figures, some 10-15% more than a manual bike just to be in vogue and being scooter . See how a similar phenomenon has been occurring with iPods and iPhones just to be fashionable and be "Apple" when the most informed know that other brands offer articles on the same line but with higher capabilities.
* plastic and more plastic ... how expensive! Although I have not had scooters and there are no plans to buy it, I have handled several student scooters and I've spoken with many friends and acquaintances who have one or have had. All agree that fall when damage to the plastic of the body (or should we say "motocería") are substantial and expensive to repair. Our partner and friend Steven, started with the bikes with a Honda Elite 125cc scooter is one that told me what ridiculously expensive it is to buy the plastic parts of the vehicle. Apparently this does not just happen scooters with brands such as Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha, but also with lots of Chinese brands or "Ameri-China" low quality. We return to the point that fashion is not always pay benevolent pocket.
* flee the holes like the plague: nothing worse than going into a hole on a bike ... more if

scooter and the car desnariza above us. Even with the sharp reflexes, a rainy day is easy to go in one of those huecotes camouflaging the water ends. Not much to say here, but if they happen to test soil in this way, hopefully, lead the team protection Properly ...
* comfortable driving position but ... But in case of slip, as when we stopped on an oil slick in the rain or on gravel or pebbles, collected the lead foot and the delay hinders classic shoe to the floor to straighten the bike before completely losing control . The broader platform to put your feet again we will take trying to save us from this slip. For these purposes it is more useful the position of riding the bike and wild common.
* Start the scooter driven ... aaaah?? As with any vehicle automatic if the battery is going, they ruin the electric start or kick ... mmm ... well, get ready to call crane or push scooter painful inertia stranded.

* Women ... so cute but so badly dressed: Although this is not a gender-cutting issue, and that this long and endless debate bores me to death, here I have to give me the bill the most women who ride scooters. If you hate me well, but please think. Also, I've done the criticism of badly dressed men going on a motorcycle.
everyday thing is to see girls and women who are in good arregladitas scooter, well played to sexy with high heels / slippers and all ... ahem!

* Easy walking does not mean easy to operate: this is often the most deadly trap scooter. The car itself is not to blame, because as I said before, was designed to be easy to handle, period. The problem is when the rookie in the gal of jet bought the scooter just thinking about him mounted and gas without having real experience in what is circular streets dodging cars, holes, stains or oil. know an infinity of cases of people going to an agency managing the scooter goes just like that, with the second cap that gives the agency, unlicensed and uninsured and throwing the Ring presotas without thinking about the risks. There are people who do the same with the bike

In summary, the Scooter deserves her place in the bikes. It has its history, its rationale and its appeal. I'm not fever automatic bikes, but given that so many people opt for these vehicles to make their entry into the world of motorcycles, is fair to say these "invisible details" that become risks when someone buys and believes Scooter no longer need to know anything more than sit and give it gas. Enjoy their scooters, but not trust and do not stop learning on safe driving and driving on public roads!
See you on the road, Rodrigo Montero
