A little update on my experience with the Motorino scooter. I like it even more than I thought I would. I use it everyday to go to work or run errands, rain or shine. I have a ''Wike'' trailer to sit the kids in and pull behind a bicycle that I used before when my son was smaller. Pretty much like this one but it's an older model that is all yellow. I fits on the scooter so now I have something that can haul bigger and heavier stuff like if I need to get some groceries. I still don't know what the range is, I think I could ride the thing until my butt hurts before the batteries go dead. I have over 260 klicks done up to now trekking around town, top speed is mostly at 45/47 kph (for Harold that's 28/29 mph). Going up a steep hill, the speed goes down to 30/32 kph and going down that same hill I hit 60

I was told that the scooter is built using a Yamaha frame. I searched a little and I'm pretty sure they use a Yamaha Vino 125 and convert it to electric.


No brain, no headaches.
