The motorcycle safety foundation (MSF) offers safety training courses for motorcycle and for scooters.

If you have children, they you need safety training !  Both for your safety and their safety.

North Carolina MC: http://www.ncmef.org/

Greensboro free training: http://myfox8.com/2013/06/11/greensboro-police-to-host-free-motorcycle-training-classes/

NC MC Safety http://ncmotorcyclesafety.org/


Get the training either before or when you get your scooter.

If they will provide the vehicle, I'd take the training first.

Scoot Safely,

another item i think i would want is to be able to locate parts if needed. i have seen a lot of post about people not being able to locate parts for some brands. would be nice to know i could order parts online iof something breaks. I do have 1 kymco dealer about an hour away from me.

Speed expectations, budget, location?

speed: from what i can tell a 150 can top out around 60mph+ im more concerned with taking off and getting into traffic i think.
budget: i don't really have one couple of grand?? i dont know guess depends on what i find
location: im in western N.C not sure why you ask unless you are referring to the terrain. its pretty hilly i live in the mountains but im just going to buzz around town mostly

So I decided to purchase a scooter for pleasure just around my small town. it looks like kymco is a brand i should be looking at but the model list is a bit overwhelming.  i couldn't even find a comparison chart of the different models and reviews seemed to be a bit limited for each model. I was hoping someone could help a beginner get started and give me some ideas on what to look for. I would greatly appreciate any info
I think what im looking for is
at-least a 150cc
4 stroke so i can get anywhere and not have to mix my fuel.
i want something quiet
good take off to get into traffic
i would like to be pretty agile with cornering and such
I have 2 kids under the age of 12 that i may double on rare occasion and I weigh about 170.
