I need help soon!! also, im looking for second hand,!!!! thanks, Mark also are there any modifications i can do ;) EDIT** IM LOCATED IN THE WESTERN SUBURBS SO ANYWHERE AROUND THERE WOULD BE GOOD

If you are near Joondalop (I never spell that right) go see Steve at Ace Scooters.

There is a huge range of 50's out there. 

 hey I'm there too!

I'll make you a coffee if you come & speak with me instead of Steve.

i want something strong, not made outta plastic

They are just about all made of plastic now (panels), just like motorbikes....

For a 16 year old, you sure are high maintenence...... like the scooter you're probably gona buy.

 

Exxy = Vespa,

cheap = chinese.

Break down = cheap....

If your gonna get a a good 50, look at the TGB, SYM, Benelli and skip the piaggio 50's, they are just rebadge chinkychonk stuff.

Peugeot is goot, but reaching the higher stuff of the market.....

Cool luck to you Emo kid.

Dozer.
