Scooters and bicycles are held up by the same science. The gyroscopic motion of their wheels in motion actually prevents them from tipping over. That's why a bike or scooter feels "Tippy" at low speeds but become more stable with speed.

Thank you for acknowledging that scooters are motorcycles. Too many people have pigeonholed themselves into a separate category simply because scooters have small wheels and CVT. You're bikers. A Burgman blowing past looks just the same as a Ninja or sport tourer to most people.
