Greetings from KY My name is Dave and I've recently moved be with my fiance. I am 33yrs old, a video game loving dork, and am in the market for a scooter. I am a manager at a nursery that sells its plants to Home Depot. I enjoy the outdoors as well and like to tinker on projects & toys. I found this forum when looking for info on my scooter buy & am looking forward to getting to know some scooter enthusiasts & learning from the collective knowledge.

What size scooter do you plan on buying and do you want to buy online or from a local dealer? Inquiring minds want to know?

Yeah a 150cc Coolster MC-150 is what has my attention right now plus a few other 150cc scooters on Craigslist/at an online dealer- sorry if I posted my scooter question in general & should have posted here in my introduction. New to the forum edicate.

Welcome! Another 150 fan. I just bought a Sunl 150 Sport in January. I've done a few things to it since I bought it. Please post some pics when you get yours. I'm a gamer too, and I'm 60. Mostly first person shooter games, like Call of Duty, and Battlefield: Bad Company. I'm in southern Indiana.

I used to play first person shooter games, starting with Wolfenstien about 20 years ago, the last one I played was something I can't remember the name of, but they made a movie out of it a couple years ago. Ahh, Max Pain, that was it. Then back in the old days of course space invaders and pong.

Sweeeeeeeeet got my WI drivers license transferred over to KY & then went and passed the motorcycle temps test!!! Now all I need is my scooter I'm gonna wait a week till next check & get that 250cc you sent in the link Rebel. Figure the extra umphf will help me tool around the roads a little better giving me the option to hop on the highway.

Glad you found one you want. It never hurts to have more power too. Don't forget to check for hidden costs, like shipping, tailgate lift, fee for your MSO.

Well from what the website says & what the people told me on phone its seems pretty straight forward. $1499.95 for the scooter, $239.95 for shipping, & $25 for the MSO due to needing notary service for state of KY (which I asked about while getting my license & they agreed it needed it). They say lift gate & residential delivery is included in the $239.95 Now one question I forgot to ask is it normal to get MSO after you get the bike? They say they will email or mail me my MSO after I receive the scooter.
