good basic info June 21, 2008
This is a good basic intro guide to modern day scooters. Ideal for those who know nothing about scoots (such as that nickname) or haven't kept up with their changes. (Guess I qualify on the last item -- haven't owned a scooter in 50 years, back when I had a Cushman in high school)
 Easy stuff. For first time riders May 14, 2008
This book is for all those who dont know ANYTHING about scooters. Which it very good. It dose have a lot of really good basic information about scooters but is not for those who need something more in depth.
Good if you know nothing about scooters now. March 14, 2008

This is a good book if you are truly a "idiot" about scooters and wish to get up to speed about the basics of these two wheeled wonders. This book will not help much in learning how to repair/maintain a Scooter.
This book can be useful in getting a "significant other " on board about scooters if they just do not know much about them and need some information to make them more comfortable with trying one out.
If you have already owned one or two scooters or have done a moderate amount of research on the web you could probably skip this book and find something more technical.
You can't beat Amazon for books with free shipping.

If you are interested in scooters and if you want to get all the information you need in compact, pleasant and entertaining way... you will be a complete idiot not to get this one!

I purchased this book because I wanted to learn how to take proper care of my motor scooter. Hoping it would be more elaborate on the maintenance section. The instruction booklet that came with my Roketa Bali-150 have instructions that are hard to read, if not unusable. This book tells you a lot, but if you're looking for information about cleaning a carbeurator, changing a spark plug, drive belt replacement, or any kind of maintenance, save yourself some money and I'd suggest another book. The information in the book is very vague, and not very specific at times also.
