Most 49cc (engine size) powered motor scooters will go between 30 and 40 miles per hour. And some may go faster than that, and some may go a little less. Remember, speed is a relative thing. Weight of the bike, weight carried, incline, wind resistance, road conditions and overall motor scooter maintenance all have an effect on the speed your motor scooter will go. Most 49cc motor scooters will gain approximately 5 more miles per hour after their break in period (about 50 miles). Back To Top

In spite of common myth, scooters are not slow by design, unless they are also speed-restricted mopeds. Many scooters without modification will go over 70mph and speed varies widely depending on various aspects like engine size, exhaust flow, gear ratios, etc. The answer very simply is a loud NO! Contrary to common myth, the smaller wheels on scooters do not make them noticeably less safe and an argument can be made that this very trait makes them *safer* than their larger-wheeled cousins.

All our motor scooters come with a bill of sale and a Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin ("MCO"). This MCO, like an automobile title, has the VIN number and vehicle description. Not all states require registration. It is your obligation to check the laws in your particular state as to whether you should or can register our motor scooters. MCOs are NOT shipped with the bike, but is sent separately via US Priority Mail several days after your motor scooter does. Back To Top See similar questions...

soon as you establish residency in Missouri, you must apply and pay for a Missouri driver license at a Missouri contract office. You may surrender a valid current driver license (or one that is expired 184 days or less) from another U.S. state to the state of Missouri to waive your Missouri skills and written tests. All applicants are required to pass the Missouri road sign recognition and vision tests. See similar questions...

All the motor scooters we offer are U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) approved and have a metal federal safety plate affixed to the bike's frame. This approval, required by most states, indicates the motor scooter meets the U.S. Federal safety guidelines (including running lights, turn signals, brake lights, proper brakes, etc.).

I will give a short practical answer rather than the theoretical formulas. There are many electric bicycles out there and the consensus of power and speed relation is fairly consistent. Let us assume that you have taken good advice and found a motor of at least 300 watts and not more than 750 watts. A 400 watt motor is generally used to propel a 50 lb. electric bicycle up to about 17 mph on flat ground. However, it will climb steep hills rather slowly. See similar questions...

It all depends on everything. A good rule of thumb is that a motor can lift the weight of the battery that drives it; or that a motor can lift its own weight. Remember that motors can either spin slow and be strong (near stall), or can spin fast and be weak (at no load). You can't have both. Motors will spin faster and be stronger the higher the battery voltage. A good test of whether you are driving a motor too hard is to feel it. If it is hot, turn down the voltage or reduce the load.
