I'm not an avid biker or anything, but I've always had a thought in my mind that it would be fun to have a scooter to mess around with.
On the plus side, fairly small, easy to park and store, good for short trips, save fuel etc.
Negatives- you're screwed if its wet, or if you have passengers or need to carry luggage or more than 1 packet of groceries. Safety is an issue too.
New they can be had for around R8k, and I thought used ones would be reasonable, but they are around R5k, and that's with rebuilt engine, or paperwork issues etc.
So, is this just a phase I need to get out of my system at some point, or should I find a different distraction?
