2009 Roketa Sicily 150 Scooter Review
by Steve R
(Chicago IL USA)
My Roketa Sicily 150 scooter
I own a Roketa Sicily 150 scooter and I like that it cost only $800.00 brand new. Assembled ready to go. The styling looks great. It starts on the first try every time.
I read bad reviews about Chinese made scooters. But I figured that they have been making scooters for a long time, so I bought it. Negatives so far:
- The battery that came with, was not very good so I had to buy a new one. $20.00?
- A turn signal light went out around 750 miles
That is the only 2 problems so far. I have about 850 miles on it so far. Rides nice, I got it up to 65 miles per hour... A little shaky... But works out great for short trips to the store. Fun to ride into the city of Chicago, never a problem to park. Or up and down scenic Sheridan Road along the shores of Lake Michigan.
Also it has a nice storage area under the seat that can be locked. Helmet fits it there like a glove.
Also in the State of Illinois USA... Helmets are optional not required by law to wear. It is great to have the freedom to decide to wear a helmet or not!

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.
