2006 Honda Metro 50cc Scooter Review
by Sally
(Lawton, OK)
I love this Honda Metro scooter! It gets over 100 mpg and is perfect for my 8-mile commute across town to go to work. It just barely makes it to 40 mph (I'm 140 pounds) but it is well-suited for my needs.
I like that it is so light and easy to handle. It came with a very small, not very useful, rack but we installed a bigger one and then added a bicycle basket to it. The space under the seat is not as large as the Yamaha Vino 125cc (our other scooter) but is still quite useful.
Also, it gives a smoother ride than our Vino. Lastly, the gas has a locking cap and is located on the floorboard which makes it very easy to access.
Did I mention that I love this scooter?

A battery tender like the Battery Tender Jr. can make all the difference in whether your scooter will start right up each spring, after being stored for months.
Just about every scooter owner needs to have a battery tender, sometimes called a trickle charger. Unless you are lucky enough to live in a climate where you can ride all year long, chances are your scooter will be put on ice, figuratively-speaking, for at least a couple months every winter.
One of the key steps in winterizing a scooter is to protect your battery from draining during its "rest" period. This can – and will – happen if you leave your battery sitting untended in your cold scooter over the winter, even if it's in a garage or shed.
