Teecee - Proud Owner of a Honda Elite Scooter!

by Teecee
(Kissimmee, Florida)

My name is Teecee and I own a 2010 Honda Elite 110 scooter that is shiny red. I bought it new on July 05th, 2011. It only had 1/4 of a mile on it when I bought it from the dealership. It has 108cc and is a breeze to ride.

I originally purchased the scooter when gas prices skyrocketed with the intent to only ride to/from work. But, now I love to ride it on weekends around the streets in Kissimmee, Florida for the enjoyment of the freedom offered on the road.

I have just learned to ride it since I bought it and I was scared at first riding around on the busy six laned roads, but I am building up my confidence on the speed, slowly.

I have all of the protective gear that I can buy. Full helmet with built-in retractable sunglasses, gloves, padded Honda jacket, padded pants you wear under your jeans, ankle boots and reflective vest to wear over my Honda jacket. My American Flag flaps in the wind to hopefully alert drivers to my presence.

My goal is to be able to cruise to the beach or travel to sights I've wanted to visit with the speed I can handle safely. The fastest speed I have attained (now, don't laugh) is: 35 MPH. Growing as I keep venturing out onto those city roads. I don't gauge it by miles distance, but by time traveled. The longest I've been out on my scooter was 2 1/2 hours, at one time. Usually, it's 1 1/2 hours, each outing.

This is my first time ever "driving" a bike... usually I was the passenger. I am glad the MSF safety course is mandatory in Florida to get the endorsement on the license. I really learned so much.

I do not know of any local scooter clubs in/near Kissimmee, Florida. I hope to find one. I joined the Honda Rider's Club of America.

I pray every time before I head out and give praises when I return home.

Thank you for your time.
