I was in the Honda Shop looking at their Yamaha 49cc scooters. They wanted $1199 for it NEW. It had a 2 stroke engine.. I told the guy I would take it. He said," There is an addition $50 fee for setting it up". I said, o.k.. He asked if I wanted the extended warranty for $200 more. I said yes. He said, in Missouri they do not require a helmet but it would be wise to have one. So I bought a full faced helmet for $85.. Well, the guy got it ready and said," Ride around in our parking lot to get use to it". So three times around in a circle and I hit the streets.. As I was going home, the scooter stalled out on me. I tried to start it, but could not. I called the Honda Shop and they said," Is the choke still on". I felt pretty stupid, but it was my first scooter. It started after that and I rode toward home. Some college girls pulled up in a late model Mustang and said," Want to trade". Laughing at my ride. I laughed and went home..
