1. What is the warranty? Goos scooter brands have a 2 year full warranty. Get it in writing.
2. Where is it made? Beware of scooters that seem to cheap and are made in China, India, or Vietnam. Scooters from Japan, Korea, or Taiwan are good quality as well as Europe.
3. Do you live where there are alot of hills or highway to Travel? Buy a scooter larger than 50cc. This may require a motorcycle endorsement, however.
4. The average price for a 50cc scooter is $1499. the average price for a 150cc is $2499, and the average price for a 250cc is $3,499. Keep this in mind when looking for quality, it does make a difference.
5. ONLY buy from a dealership with a service center. Avoid auctions and sales online, convenience and auto parts stores, and roadside and out of home sales.
