Review of the 2010 Honda Elite 110 Gas Scooter
by Lou Finkle
(Biloxi-Gulfport, MS)
The Honda Elite gas scooter is a perfect machine for local riding. I average 300 miles per month throughout the cities along the Gulf Coast. Some notable issues include:
- small & fast enough for city traffic 30-45 mph
- averaging 96 mpg and running quietly at that!
- entire machine is top quality with beautiful finish work
- too small for a 6'4" person (I sit on the rear seat with feet vertical against front apron skirt)
- nimble & light enough for back paddling into parking spaces
- the best high-quality scooter for a beginner
- the rear rack allowed me to line the bottom of a tool bag with a sheet of plywood, drill holes in the bag/wood to accomodate ty-wraps for attaching to the rack. This makes a folding, huge luggage compartment.
If I were to upgrade seating size & power, I will probably go to a Honda SilverWing 600 or Suzuki Burgman 400. These allow taller persons to sit without having the handlebars touch their knees.

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.
