50cc
At 50cc I would get an e-bike, mine can travel at similar speeds and it’s a fun ride, very maneuverable. I consider a scooter only if I could afford one that was reliable, preferably stylish and could hit 45 mph easily because then it could comfortably run on the 35 mph streets around here.
But sure, if you want one and it fits your transportation needs, why not?

Agreed. The e-bikes have reached around the same performance, maybe more.
Keep in mind the battery lifespan tho. They degrade drastically overtime. This is one thing that keeps me on ICE.
I have a moped, but it’s 110cc instead, can travel 80 km/h easily, max out at around 100 km/h.
Any reason you can’t use a regular bike?
Not universal advice but most people could use more exercise.
This is social media, not a magic 8-ball simulator. 😄
With zero context of you and your circumstances, you’re only going to get responses equal in value to rolling a die or flipping a coin.
An ice cream sandwich would be substantially less expensive, and you’d look a lot cooler riding that than a moped.
Mopeds are like fat chicks, really fun to ride as long as no one sees you.
I just got back from thailand and i definitely want to get one for getting around my city
Depending where you live and your financial situation. It’s good for picking up girls at that age, or impress the boys. Don’t get one if don’t need one. Don’t get one if you can’t afford one. And if you get one, take 49cc because the insurance is cheaper.
There is a local perception that people only ride these things when they can’t get a license for whatever reason. The common term is “liquorcycle” (with cycle pronounced like sickle).
And don’t worry. If an American war-rig mangles your body because the driver was going a little too fast, or not paying attention, they’ll probably get a ticket.
Only if you get a Rickenbacker 4001 and start hitting kids with it.
