 A Little Urbanity: Motor Scooter Experiment
Here, a scooter is usually either a novelty item (as in my case), or, more commonly, it's a vehicle of last resort for poor people who've had their drivers' licenses revoked.
Scooters are not hampered by normal rules of traffic and their driver’s outright demand the right-of-way from busses and pedestrians alike.
b) Operate a motorized scooter on a highway with a speed limit in excess of 25 miles per hour unless the motorized scooter is operated within a class II bicycle lane.

 Building a Balancing Scooter
Self-balancing scooters, like the Segway™ are often thought to be technological miracles, but it is not actually very hard to build one.
But the scooter is neither fast enough to make going the long way round feel right, nor maneuverable enough to go up and down a lot of curbs.
The torque generated by the motor is directly related to the current flowing through the motor.

 Scooter FAQ
All scooters over 50cc require you to possess a motorcycle license, helmets are optional for adults, and only scooters with big-tires and big-engines (ie not many) are freeway legal.
The reason that scooters are commonly not treated as equals in motorcycle circles is simply because they generally are slower and not as performance-oriented as their larger cousins.
Scooters also typically are easier to learn to ride than many motorcycles and scooters often have a more acceptable social image.

 Honda NH80 scooter
As I understand it, the ideal is to keep the motor at top speed all the time and to have the variomatic drive adjust the "gearing" according to the driving demands (acceleration, hills, cruising).
Simply tuning the motor to equal that of a comparable motocross or street bike of the period would result in substantial improvements in both acceleration and top speed.
The scooter was being run on the cheapest two stroke oil from a discount auto store so that would not have led to a lengthy life in any case.

The easiest 50cc scooter available in the USA to modify is the Yamaha "Zuma II" (called the "BW's" everywhere else), primarily because it's not restricted as sold stock (which is why it does not qualify as a moped in any USA state) and is widely raced in Europe and Asia.
