IA Alias. We ain't Europe. We ain't ready for low mileage practical scooters.  Imo if you're driving on small quiet roads, go for it. OT: I hate when people drive these suckers on the road. Going 35 in a 55mph zone, no get up & go, getting aggressive with my SUV knowing I can't hit them like I want to.

As long as you know how to ride a motorcycle you should be fine. But
like someone else mentioned, ppl get in bad accidents with them. My
fiance's cousin got hit 2x with his Vespa in Brooklyn. Once was minor,
the 2nd time landed him in the hospital in traction with a broken arm
and banged up ribs.
Now, considering you're in Cali with equally crazy drivers, you're taking a chance. So...ride with caution!

This chick that lives off my street has a pink one, she has a pink helmet. This guy that lived down the street from me had one as well, his job was right down the street. He started dating this chick and I would see them on it together.
Everything is fairly close, he didn't have a car but she did. I went over his house for a b-cue and she said she liked riding on his scooter with him. His house was on point too, guess all the money he didn't spend on a car he used to do things around the house. He had the best gatherings.
He is gone now moved to Vegas, took the scooter and the girl.

It is the other people you have to worry about also most people are used to sharing the road with bikers and scooters. I ride by bike all over the place and never once had a problem. Rode right next to huge trucks and never was scared. That is a cute scooter
