Is this better than buying an expensive shitbox?

>Remember that your $50k shitbox will depreciate by 50% in 2 years.

uh my 800$ shitbox will be worth 800$ even in 5 years. it may even become worth more because of its like new condition

No. Scooters are TERRIBLE.

Also, two wheels is hard and inconvenient. Driving a car can be done in shorts and sandals year-round in all weather if your heating works, and while carrying half a ton of bulky junk and four friends.

If you're committed to two wheels, just get a 125cc bike. Looks better, sounds better, goas faster, handles properly, doesn't bottom out on manhole covers, way more fun.

The route I'm going is a DD chosen for reliability and a bike chosen for fun. The only obstacle right now is that I'm limited to a 125cc until I know what I'm doing enough to pass a test for the proper full license.

If you're gonna get a scooter don't get a shitty chinese one, get a yamaha or honda or something, chinese ones are nothing but trouble.

Scooters are awesome. Very comfy, great on gas, and many are automatic, plus depending on the scooter, you can mount them more easily than a real motorcycle. Dont get a vespa, though, only because theyre very expensive. Theyre fashionable but theres many cheaper choices out there.

i bought my shitbox for $5000 5 years ago

they're still selling for $5000 even with the additional mileage

scooters are objectively garbage

at least get a dual sport

Thank you user. Will do.

>automatic scooter

Penultimate cuckmobile.

Have fun getting run over on wet roads

Depends on where you are but in my state scooters and mopeds over 50cc and under don't have to be registered
