Which scooters do you recommend for a tall person?

by Alan McCampbell
(Okeechobee, Florida)




Can you please recommend the best scooters for a tall person, in terms of fuel efficiency, reliability, and durability. Thanks

Note from webmaster: Alan... Can you tell us more about you? How tall is tall? I'm only 4'11", so anything over 5'5" seems tall to me. :) But seriously, tall could be defined as 6 feet... or maybe you're like my son-in-law and are 6'6"! Do tell...

Also, how do you plan to use your scooter? Are you looking for recommendations in a certain class of scooter? For instance, you'd get different suggestions in the 50cc class vs. the maxi-scoot (450cc & up) class.

Please use the Comments link here to tell us more about your needs and the type of scooter you are looking for. Approximate weight (yours) would also be helpful...

Battery Tender Junior in package

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.

Attention!

I'm Back!

Yes, I have been noticeably absent from the site the past few months. I recently lost my mother to a long battle with COPD and was subsequently plagued with a bunch of minor health problems. But I'm better now & back full swing.

I had to delete over a hundred questions that had been submitted, some because they were too old for answers to still be valuable and many because they were written in text speak, which I don't accept on the site. PLEASE... use proper capitalization & punctuation, so I can publish your question/review, etc. without editing. Thanks! :)

Wondering why your scooter question never got posted?

Chances are, there is a good reason. Did you...

If you "checked yes" on any of the points above, then I've deleted your post. Sorry, but I have standards. Feel free to re-submit, following the instructions I have everywhere on the site.

Also... all submissions have to be reviewed by me, and that can take a few days sometimes. Comments go live without approval, but still take 30 to 60 minutes to show up, so don't repost them, please.
