I wish I would get a hum between my legs for a couple of hours every day.
:D :D :D :D :D :D

Couple of hrs per week would do me. Actually a couple of hrs a month would still be an improvement...... :-\

Be good to have multiple wives like our multiple scoots, a good old dependable one that may be a bit scruffy and worn around the edges, but is guarenteed to be faithfull and be there when you need it and always gets where you need to go, plus a newer sportier one that may need constant attention and "tune-ups" at the nail bar, hair salon or tan booth, but is a great ride and will do things your old wife couldnt even imagine doing :D

Even better if you could put them away in the garage when you dont need them too  ;D
Chaos is my co-pilot.

Difference between a scooter and a woman?
A scooter doesn't stalk you after you're done throwing your leg over it.

   200 miles a day , thats 45 to 50 thousand miles a year ,needs two bikes for sure, 500 cc to take the milage and the ease on the butt, is your road high speed , or is it secondary roads through towns and slow driving, it takes a couple of hours at least, or more, through towns,

It would be a 2 hr ride with most being on highway 93 miles or so. Speeds of about 70 MPH the entire ride.

If even the bigger scoots need that mch repair time he'd better go with the car as he now does, just gas prices are hurting him. I'll add more later

A very popular car here is the Hyundai Accent CRDI 1.5L Diesel... 30 kms per liter Highway or around 75 miles per gallon.... This car is the favorite of taxi operators here...

Not sold in thr States. Many cars you can get elsewhere can't be bought here. Too high of milage and our still cheap gas does not allow for any profit.

100 miles each way?  Car or scooter that would be no good...
Maybe if he had a helicopter...

He should look into public trans.

MAss transit at the NJ shore is horible, 1 bus per hour, if you miss it or it's full your F'ed. In the end he'll stick with the car, told him to buy a scoot for the fun and keep safe and worm in the car for two more years until he retires.
