Scooters are primarily designed for nimble, quick, convenient and efficient urban transport. They thrive in places where parking is scarce, roads are congested, and fuel prices are high. The minimum engine displacement is 150cc on interstates. Most scooters are too small to be legally operated on interstate. Genuine’s Buddy 170i and Hooligan 170i are large enough and can attain a top speed in excess of 60+mph. However, cruising at 65 miles per hour on a 170 scooter would be similar to cruising at 130mph in your car. These high speeds will shorten engine life and are not recommend for long periods of time. In other words, your properly maintained Buddy, Hooligan or G400C will faithfully zip you along city streets, country roads, bustling boulevards, tree lined parkways, and even pikes. But we’d advise staying off the expressway and the interstate.
