I got a 2007 Roketa Bali 150cc with 700 miles on it. Trunk, Radio, Windshield options. I want $1050 for it. It will smoke a Ruckus! I got it up to around 70MPH on 279. Its a bit more modern and larger than a ruckus IMO. Two people fit VERY comfortably on it. ![http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/jackhunt321/touring_moped_06_model1.jpg](http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a282/jackhunt321/touring_moped_06_model1.jpg) ---

Oh yea, it has LED mirror turn signals too…all the amenities of a scooter 😉 The above pic doesn’t have a trunk on it, but there is one included on mine. It is PA titled and currently registered. The trunk is quick release with a TON of extra space under the flip up seat. ---

for 150cc you must have atleast a permit…just a written test - the permit lasts for a year. Insurance is $8/month and registration is $9/year a 50CC will top at at 35mph and sucks on hills a 150cc will top at 65+mps and goes great up hills All the 150cc engines are GY6 - similar to racing go-carts etc…, a ton of aftermarket support if you look on ebay ---

I know those little scooters have great gas mileage…but i can’t complain at a 14.15 fill up using premium and getting about 50mpg even with light speeding ---

The ones who caim sport bikes hurt their backs have never been on a sport bike…a sport bike is closer to the fetal position and easier on the back by alot…just more painful in the wrists.
