Vespa Scooters and Their History
Executive Summary about Piaggio Vespa by Kenneth Elliott

Piaggio Vespa. Vespa an italian built scooter manufactured by Piaggio. Piaggio is Europe's largest manufacturer of two wheeled vehicles and the fourth largest in the world. Over the years Vespa's have evolved from single model scooters to a full line of scooters that will satisfy even the most picky consumer.

Vespa's have been a hit since the first one rolled off the assembly line. But now they are mostly known for the painted, pressed steel unibody that houses the complete engine compartment. The flat board to keep your feet and a prominent front fairing (mainly used for wind protection).

Vespas have been used in racing and have become extremely popular in the United States. The racing classes in the United States are the Small Frame Class, the Automatics Class, the Specials Class and the Stock Class. There are only five models of the Vespa being manufactured today.

By Devilito

Medical Scooters. Medical scooters are also known as mobility scooters. Medical scooters are perfect for outdoor travel on smooth surfaces such as roads and sidewalks. The single front wheel structure also frees up more legroom, which is a boon for tall people.

Medical scooters are becoming one of the hottest trends in healthcare for the elderly and disabled. Medical scooters are available in both electrical and gas powered models. They come in three or four-wheel models depending on the capacity and the level of stability required by the user.

Medical scooters are such a necessary and advantageous innovation. They can give you back your freedom and, in so doing, they do quite a bit to actually give you back your life. You will no longer have to rely on any other person to get where you want to go.

Now, who can benefit from these scooters? honestly, the possibilities are endless. In general, you will be able to choose between a scooter with three wheels and a scooter with four wheels. If for any reason you have limited mobility, a scooter can be beneficial to you.

People who have broken legs which will take a long time to heal can use them, as can people who have had strokes or severe heart attacks and are not supposed to put a lot of strain on themselves. People with handicaps or disabilities will unquestionably know the advantages of an electric scooter. If you have arthritis, particular in the hips or knees, then a scooter can make life much easier.

This is also true if your mobility is limited due to old age, infirmity, or issues involving weight. Typically, a three wheeled scooter is capable of handling as much as two hundred and fifty pounds of weight. Medical scooters with four wheels are, of course, more stable than the ones with three wheels. Some of them have a maximum weight of three hundred and fifty pounds.

So You Want to Buy a Scooter?
Executive Summary about Buy Scooter by Scott Vawser

Buy Scooter. For some years now, I have been looking into buying a motor scooter or motor bike of some sort. Which scooter is the one that will suit my various needs and desires? There are so many scooter makers to choose from and once you “meet your maker”, then you have a great big job on your hands in choosing your model.

Aprilia - 6 models; Benelli - 7; Bowell Scoota - 14; Bug - 6; Bug-Kymco - 2; Derbi - 1; Giamoto - 1; Gilera - 2; Honda - 4; Hyosung - 6; Italjet - 3; Motobella - 1; Peugeot - 11; Piaggio - 2; SCP - 4; Suzuki - 2; TGB - 5; Vespa - 7; V-Moto - 3; Yamaha - 6.

Why not a small car? There are some great small cars that are very fuel efficient, even a hybrid car that is good for the environment too! For me the choose of a scooter is not instead of a car. Global demand for fossil fuels is outstripping supply. Sure scooters use fuel too, this one day may be an issue as well, but much work is going into experimenting with various fuel alternatives.

A 50cc scooter, even a top quality one will not suit your purposes if you are desiring long trips on a regular basis, (my opinion only). If you are planning on some long rides or at least some short but fast rides, get looking at a 125cc and over scooter. There are other factors to the ride than the engine size; such as tyre size, seat hight and so on. My advice, ask for a test drive. Obviously you need a bike licence in many places if you are riding a bike over 50cc, so make sure you check all that out.

Some of you are simple people, you just want a scooter. Go to the local scooter dealer and ask the man to show you one. You might be like me and love the old style classic, retro feel to a scooter and love looking at old restorations of classic Lambrettas and 1960 Vespas…hmmmm. The new bikes come with matching top boxes, side bars and gear racks - the works, ready for you to buy up and put on board.

Want a scooter? Happy shopping !

The Most Popular ScooterExecutive Summary About Piaggio Scooters By Brenda Williams Piaggio Scooters. The Piaggio Group of Italy manufactures Vespas, the most popular scooter in Italy and around Europe. Piaggio is Europe's largest manufacturer of two wheeled vehicles and the fourth largest in the world. Piaggio originally manufactured aircraft, especially for the war effort in World War II, but moved to motorcycles after the war because of the need for better transportation around the rubble-filled roads. The original designer of the Vespa Scooter was Piaggios Engineer Corradino D'Ascanio. D'Ascanio was never a fan of conventional Motorcycles and decided to create the vespa with Handlebar Gear changes and on a Spar shaped frame with small wheels and an engine mounted at the back of the cycle and a front protector to allow the rider greater comfort. The seating configuration was designed with all users in mind including women where it would still be possible due to the design of the scooter fro a woman to where a dress. When the MP6 model was developed, the founder's son Enrico Piaggio listened to the buzz of the engine and screamed out "Sembra una vespa!". 1946, Piaggio filed for a patent for the Vespa and began distribution on the scooter, producing the first 13 for the Milan Fair. In 1947 Piaggio sold 2,500 Vespas. In 1949 the number doubled to 20,000 and in 1950 Piaggio sold 60,000 Vespas. The movie "Roman Holiday" was a big help in the advertising and sale of the Vespa.

Things to Consider When Buying Electric Scooters For KidsExecutive Summary about Kid Scooters By Gerald Potratz Kids Scooter. Scooters everywhere! Have you noticed how popular electric scooters for kids have become? Scooters continue to be a growing trend with no end in sight. Although it isn't exactly a car, sporty electric scooters for kids are an excellent idea for parents to give their children as a replacement for real wheels. Many children push their parents to start with an electric scooter that might not be age appropriate. The choices are purchasing a "stand up" scooter similar to a kick scooter, which is electric powered, or the riding type similar to a motor scooter. If your child is 13 to 14 years old then the motor bike style electric scooter is appropriate. Here are some things to consider before you make your final selection of a scooter: Models: Electric models are quieter than gas models and are ideal for the environment since they meet zero-emissions standards. Electric scooters for kids should have a full sized deck so they don't increase the risk of falling. Carrying Capacity: The heavier the rider the slower the scooter and the range will be affected as well. As a rule of thumb electric scooters for children are built for riders weighing less than 175 lbs. Speed: Stand up, and ride type scooters like the Razor Pocket Rocket model have top speeds that do not exceed 15mph. Top speed depends on several factors, most notably the weight of the rider and the terrain being traveled. Distance or Range Per Battery Charge: A better measure of travel capability is riding time or motor run time per charge. Battery recharge time for a typical scooter battery is 4 to 6 hours. Price: Avoid the "kick" style electric scooters that sell for less than $100. You should be able to purchase a "kick" style electric scooter in the $125 to $275 price range. A durable motor bike style electric scooter should be in the $325 and up price range. Don't forget about safety issues. Make sure the child is properly equipped with a helmet, knee pads, maybe some elbow pads, and of course sturdy shoes. Make sure the scooter isn't too big for the child. Avoid "no-name" brand electric scooters. Good luck in finding that perfect scooter for your child. You never know what might happen as you watch your child's electric scooter experience unfold.[...]
