Can we ride now?
We bought this Eagle Milano DX 150cc scooter last summer for my wife to use to go back and forth to work, but she decided to become a Honda Rebel owner after a month. So, now it's a grocery getter and short haul machine... for which it's perfect.
It came from an online company and was assembled by the Bashan Motorcycle Company in China. It has enough space under the seat to carry a gallon of milk and various groceries. It gets between 63 to 68 mpg running on regular, and runs about 50 to 53 mph with me on board, more with my lightweight wife.
I wasn't expecting a Vespa, just something to get around on, considering it cost $1100... and it's done that with a minimum of fuss for close to 1100 miles.
I've had a warranty problem taken care of by the online seller, so he isn't a fly-by-nighter, contrary to popular lore. I've even recommended him to others who are equally satisfied. Oil and transfer case lube changes are easy so I expect to keep it running for awhile.

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.
