I only just last month replaced the original battery which is still holding a charge but I decided to replace it anyway due to being 7 years old. I never replaced any of the bulbs even except the headlight, other than the plastics deteriorating due to the constant exposure to sun and weather, and replacing things like the muffler, the right mirror and brake handle because the wind blew the scooter over, it's been reliable and held up just fine, I have NO regrets whatsoever not spending $2,000 plus for a Honda or Genuine Buddy, in fact, I can get my $700 TaoTao started and ride it to work all winter, in the snow, and down near zero temps when my local NAPA store owner who HAS one of those expensive Honda Metropolitan 50 cc scooters said he can't get his started and if it does start it doesn't run well in the winter, so he stores it away all winter go figure! In Boston however, you are going to have to contend with things like theft- how do you plan to secure the scooter at night and when you are at work in a city like this where car and bicycle thefts are common, and a scooter can be lifted up by two guys easily and put itn the back of a van in 5 seconds and gone? thieves would definitely go after a $2,000 Honda or other expensive make scooter! Can't tell you how many bicycles I had stolen in NYC, they cut the chain, break padlocks, or just hold you up at knife point. Quote:
