Anyone have any idea what I'd be looking to shell out for a 49cc scooter?
Can't be bothered with driving lessons atm, nor the bus.

Well how much have you got to spend?
Not really sure. Looking as cheap as I can, up to something half decent really.
Not wanting to spend a lot on one - just want one for messing about on.
Obviously not like £100, but a few £100?
You'll nead to bear in mind that you require it to be taxed and insured as well.
Well tax is only 15 quid for a year and at 16 im insured FPO for 197 quid on mine
Have a look on ebay and stay away from speedfight's and all 4stroke 50cc scooters as pedal bike will beat them in a race ;]
At 16 does it need to be restricted to 30mph?
Yeah if you buy a 50cc ped new it will be restricted to 30MPH but second hand ones will most likely been derestricted
around £300, i got a 110cc scrambler for £320.
so 49 should be less, i think
Na doesn't work like that... Some scooters are way over priced you can pick 110cc bikes up new for half the price of scooters.....
I fly around doing 60mph all the time I just brake like mad if a police car is near ;) 30mph is a dangerous speed trust me, when I was running my bike in at 30mph every car over took me ;\
My dad has a 49cc moped from 1973 (FS1E Yamaha) and that can do 60, and thats still a restricted speed due to the age. With a sports exhaust etc they can be pused to around 70. But that did cost £3k cause it's rare. I've been looking at scooters and the ones I've looked at were around £500 (Aprillas).
i have a 50cc baotion, Its nothing styleish cost me £350, gets up to 45mph downhill unsure if its restricted tho :S
