The definition is evolving as motorcycle designs changeover time. Historically, a scooter was noted for a small engine, small wheels, a step-through design, a forward fairing with floor boards,and possibly under-seat storage. Modern scooters cover a broad spectrum of designs: step-through or step-over frames, small or largewheels, front fairings or floor boards, under-seat storage or not, and manual or automatic transmissions. Most scooters today featureautomatic transmissions.At one end of the current market, the Vespa LX series reflects the scooters' historical antecedents: small wheels, floor boards,front fairing, inner fairing storage. At the other end, the Honda Big Ruckus featured no bodywork, floorboards or step-throughframe, but was still classified as a scooter. The Piaggio MP3, with two front wheels (three wheels total) reflects the fluid nature ofthe scooter classification. Modern scooters have a wide range of engine displacements, from under 50 cc to over 799 cc, andsome have engine locations in stark contrast to classic scooter design (e.g. Yamaha T-Max 500, Suzuki Burgman 650, Gilera GP800).In many parts of the world, such as Asia and Europe, motor scooters are a popular form of urban transportation due to their lowcost and easy driving position. In fact, in many nations in Asia, scooter sales growth outpaces automobile sales growth.For many people, a motor scooter is the family vehicle until sufficient funds to purchase an automobile are amassed, although incrowded cities, scooters can be preferred over automobiles regardless of cost, due to parking, storage, and traffic issues.According to the Motorcycle Industry Council, sales of motor scooters in the United States have more than doubled since 2000.The motorcycle industry as a whole has seen 13 years of consecutive growth. According to council figures, 42,000 scooters weresold in 2000. By 2004, that number increased to 96,000.Maxi-ScootersAnother trend in the USA and elsewhere sees larger scooters, called maxi-scooters, with engines ranging in size from 250 cc upto the latest 839 cc machine (the Gilera GP 800) and using larger frames than the normal size scooters but not necessary bigdisplacement. This trend began in 1985 when Honda introduced the CH250 Elite/Spacy, and continued with the 1999 introductionof the Suzuki Burgman 400. A few years later, Suzuki launched the Burgman 650. Honda (600 cc), Piaggio, Yamaha, Aprilia,Kymco (700 cc) and others have also introduced scooters with engine displacements ranging from 400 to 850 cc. Honda'sPS250 or Big Ruckus defies common scooter classification in that its step-through is high and the bike features no bodywork butrather a motorcycle-like exoskeleton.The more advanced (and expensive) maxi-scooters differ from traditional scooters in that the engine is mounted on the frame,as opposed to the swing-arm. This arrangement can improve the handling, by allowing the centre of gravity to be moved forwardand making fewer demands on the rear shock absorber(s). A final drive is necessary to connect the clutch assembly to the rearwheel. This trend toward larger, more powerful scooters with fully automatic transmissions is matched by an emerging trendin motorcycle design that foreshadows automatic transmission motorcycles with on-board storage. This is exemplified by theAprilia NA 850 Mana automatic-transmission motorcycle that provides built-in storage for a full-face helmet."This information found:Wikipedia EncylopediaFind more Scooters for Sale Here:Scooters for SaleScooters for Sale Powered By RingsurfThis site is part of an Internet Site-Ring Community hosted at World of Newave Previous - List: scooter - Home: scooter - Forum: scooter - Join - Next
