Does anyone have any experience of electric scooters/motorbikes that they could share? (NOT disability varieties!)
For around-town type journeys...

Re: Electric scooters
when i worked I had a Sweam. not very fast (top speed potential of 6mph) but it really made my commute easier. it didnt like hills. and the motor wore out within a year (think i was a bit heavy for it lol!)
I still have it, but not sure if it still works!

Re: Electric scooters
I have an electric bike which I use (with a trailer) to take my 4 yr old to school when I can.
The battery takes about 4/5 hrs to fully charge and it goes on average for about 15 miles.
I've not experienced a scooter but I love the bike!

Re: Electric scooters
yamaha used to make one which was equivalent to a 50cc moped (up to 40mph), so would be good around town. But sorry I don't know anyone who owns one.
