Yea I had the Tao Tao 50 known as speedy 50 which really has a 63cc motor in it paid 620.00 and drove is for 10,000 real true miles and I don't know why but mine would go 60 mph it's probley cause I only way 145
i bought one of these cheap ($) chinese mopeds and was suprised at how well it ran, I sold it with more than 2000 miles on it and never put any real money in it. couldn't beat the price
I bought at scooter from these guys and it showed up with a speedometer that doesn't work, a seat latch which doesn't work. The first response I got when I called their service department was to just try reconnecting the speedometer and then to just "pull harder" on the latch. Needless to say, this advice was useless. Now they won't even return my email inquires. DO NOT do business with these people, they are not honest.
The worst crap quality scooter ! do not buy this shit ! buy a quality brand like yamaha honda, aprilia ! dont throw your money away on a scooter that last as long like the milk i have in my fridge!
Aprilia SportCity 50 and Yamaha Zuma 50 are brand names supported with good waranties and service. Of course they are about $1800, new. Parts and service are no problem with these two brands. In Texas you have to have a motorcycle license because they go faster than 30 mph and aren't classified as mopeds. Helmet laws and ins. coverage is needed too although ins. in Texas only costs $50 a year for the required liability, and really why would you want any other coverage?
umm i got a question......you see i bought the first generation of this model the 50cc 2stroak verson .....and i need to replace body panels and stuff.....and where in the hell can i find so damm parts for this shit???? i mean if you gonna sell a vehicle you better make and sell parts......you just dont have people pay 1grand for a scooter they cant fix
If you are one of many ppl who can't get enough traffic to their site,The one I use is the GAS system,It is by far the easiest installation you will find,Download it at GAS-AFFILIATEdotCOM.
ok email me at wowmang@yahoo.com and tell me if you got anymore of this moped.....and i was just wondering do you need a motorcycle license? or just a driver license
Shocking scooter, i bet it will break down as i had a chinese scooter which looked like this (was also chinese) and had about 101 problems, I aint even joking. best to spend an extra 200 £/$ and get a japanese scooter and it will turn out cheaper. as you arnt repairing it constaly like i have to.
I really want to know if this motor scooter can go on the street or the side of the street. I want to know if you can ride this on the street legaly in Ohio.
I have this exact scooter from scooter depot, on flat ground it will get up to 45mph, uphill it is very slow, and down hill it goes over 50 easily. I'm very happy with it now, but I had lots of initial problems that needed to be worked out especially with the electrical and the carburetor. I recommend staying close to help for the first 50 miles. But, now that those problems are fixed, its been great for short commutes in town, very happy. Better than advertised even.
I should add, I'm not a small guy either I weigh 215lbs. But, weight does matter, I tried driving with my wife on back and it lost 10mph, so I imagine a very small person could get even better performance.
@carl2009ify The style on this video is the best if you get a scooter dont run it as fast as it will go that messes it up. A roketa maui or something that looks like this one.The roketa maui gets 115mph
uk at 16 you can ride a scooter ped motocycle whatever as long as its below 50cc and you do this really piss training day thing. at 17 it has to be below 125 and at 18 whatever :)
for a motorcycle you need to be 18, for a moped, you need to complete the mvc program and you only need to be 15. thats why i have a moped. im only 16. so its the better choice for me.
No, for a motorcycle you need to be 16, you do NOT need to complete the mvc program, it is how i got my license, but not required, you can simply take a test and get it. (u need to already have a drivers license though) And for a moped (to legally ride it on the road) You would have to be 16, and you do not need a motorcycle license for anything 50 cc and under
mvc what a rip off close to $300 in Florida even if you were riding +racing = motocross and roadrace since 1972 i wish i could line up those politician into a firing squad in the central town park and have them shot dead for corruption.
Amazing little scoots. I bought one about 3 years back and ride it every day around the neighborhood and to the local Haji Mart. No problems at all. One new battery. Always starts and always runs fine.
Has to be registered in FL but no special license to drive it. I do a bit over 100 MOG with it. Oh and I weight 270 pounds. Not a ricket but a cheep little thing to move around on. I also have a VT1100 Honda. This is quicker, cheaper and easier for ultra local hops.
I have one like this and honestly I haven't had any issues with it. I had some starting issues after winter when it was in the garage in 32 degree weather for 4 months with a full tank of gas but it's a fun little scooter that's great for short hops to places like work and back. I got mine last year when gas was hovering around $4.40 a gallon. $5.00 filled it up and lasted 2 weeks. I love it.
shitty chinese scooter, i have one it breaks down all the time wont start, breaks down, vibrates your teeth out. spend the extra money and buy yamaha, honda, or kymco
i had one these. they last 5k miles then start to tear up. the body clips are brittle and all break and the electrial stuff starts shorting out especially the headlights and horn all stop functioning.... the engine however are top notch. my experience with them and opinon only.
this thing is a plastic piece of shit that is probaly made in china anybody riding one of these things should be embarrassed its not even a real bike and half the time its a 50 yr old yuppy riding it in his hawaiin shirt khaki pants and sandels these things are sad if ur gunna ride atleast buy a real motorcycle
For most states, you don't need to register a 50cc gas scooter, but please check with your local DMV since every state has different laws and regulations. Thank you.
@djsocceralex for MOST states, The rule is if the motor is bigger than 50cc's or goes more than 35 miles per hour. its considered a motorcycle. anything less is a moped/scooter
Yea I had the Tao Tao 50 known as speedy 50 which really has a 63cc motor in it paid 620.00 and drove is for 10,000 real true miles and I don't know why but mine would go 60 mph it's probley cause I only way 145
