Its a whole different type of ride. I haven’t had any problems w / the small wheels and potholes. Im looking at the Aprilia SR50 R Factory, E-Ton Beemer 4, Kymco Agility 125, and Yamaha Zuma 125. Ive read some bad stuff about the Roketa’s and have heard they depreciate ridiculously. People on the Aprilia forums are saying that derestricting the RS50R is simple and lets it go about 60mph+ on flat land. Im leaning towards the Aprilia, because of the direct EFI, transponder, rear disc, and I am assuming the Aprilia name will help its resale better than the E-Ton and Kymco. I also think the SR 50 R looks awesome. The Ninja is out, insurance alone costs almost as much as the bike. [I am assuming most banks require full coverage]. Im looking to mainly use this to get to work about 4 miles in Monroeville. I will probably also use it in the fall around the city [I live in Oakland]. Im sure occassionally Ill go between Oakland and Monroeville, but i don’t that will be horrible to do avoiding 376. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/scooter-questions-flame-suited/198690)._
