www.superiorpowersports.com/50cc_gas_scooter_p/rk50sc-114.htm is what i ride. I have painted it, and put better tires on it. The speed they quote is way off! I have put 8,000 miles on it with no mechanical problems. Some of the part are worn and replaced, some I have yet to find a close enough match or same part.

Yep those are considered mopeds, you can order them with pedals or without. Some you have low and high gear and change gears with your foot. They will do about 30 or so, I had one back in 2009 and kept it for only three months and sold it. I could not keep up with traffic and had to get out of their way and I only weigh 180lbs. They are 4 strokes chain driven. They are good for around town where speeds are 25 to 30. Lefty

Yeah, mine is a 50cc 4-speed no clutch. I can cruise at 40-45 mph on a flat road. I weigh about 140lbs. I have had it about 2 years now with no major problems. I ride almost everyday no matter how cold.

I am in TN and in murfreesboro (NC has a murfreesboro as well ) there are a very very few scooter riders. Everyone wants to go out of town to ride. we are the 8th fastest growing city in the US so it is mostly rich snobby a**h*les here.
