Choosing an Electric Scooter
By Matthew Smith
Electric scooters come in all shapes and sizes. Today�s manufacturers have got the picture and are catering not only to the kids, but also to the older riders as well. With the vast difference in electric scooters, choosing the right one for your particular needs is paramount so that you don�t waste your money.
When choosing an electric scooter, you need to consider a few things first. Once you have taken into consideration these issues, you can make the right decision that best fits you.
Rider Weight: Electric scooters, though more powerful these days, will operate best while carrying the least amount of weight. The more weight that the scooter carries, the more the overall performance will diminish. Choose an electric scooter that can carry your weight plus an extra 50 lbs or more. For example; If the max weight capacity of the electric scooter in question is two-hundred and forty pounds and you weigh one-hundred and eighty pounds, then this is about perfect for your weight.
Average Distance: As goes with weight, the more weight the scooter carries, the less the max distance that the electric scooter will be able go. When choosing an electric scooter, look at the max distance rating. The max distance rating that is advertised is based on an average sized adult, usually one-hundred and thirty pounds, according to the manufacturer. Remember not to expect that max distance if you are a little heavier. Also, what they don�t tell you, that distance will be more determined on factors such as; riding conditions, hills, weather, and how much you use the throttle. A good rule of thumb is to take the max rated distance of say twenty-five miles per charge and realistically expect fifteen to twenty miles on a charge.
So determine which type of electric scooter you are going to purchase based on the average distance that you are going to be traveling between charges.
Actual Use: When looking at purchasing an electric scooter, think about what the scooter will be used for. Once you figure what the scooter will regularly be used for, you can decide which type is best for you. If you are going to be using it during pre-dawn or after dusk hours, then you want to consider getting one with a headlight. If you are going to be just cruising around town, the beach, the campground or your local college campus, then perhaps a two-in-one stand up type with an optional seat that folds down for easy storage would be a better bet. Whatever the type you choose, be sure to keep in mind safety.
As you can see, choosing the right electric scooter for you actually takes a little thought. Whatever you choose, remember the distance, weigh and use rules. Don�t get something that will not satisfy yourself as well as your needs.

Putting gas in your scooter is generally about a two-minute affair. Many of them hold only a few gallons, with some pretty outstanding fuel mpg ratings to go along with their tiny tanks. While there are electric and gas powered scooters, gas is by far the more popular way to go the world over. It can be very inconvenient to find a place to plug in an electric scooter, and they take time to charge.

In the last couple of years, a lot of scooters have turned up for sale on eBay and Craig's List... from Vietnam. There are millions of Italian scoots in SE Asia, and a pretty big business in restoration has grown up around Saigon. Some of them even look pretty spiffy! But, my gawd, the horror stories about these restorations! Home-made parts, kilos of Bondo-like filler, even dangerous things (cracked welds, bad brakes, undersized or parted cables, painted-over or hidden casting failures). WATCH OUT.
