That is a brand I have zero experience with because I never heard of them. At that price..... You can build a new scooter at that price point? Anyways, what do you plan on doing? Travel off the campground onto public roads? Carry a passenger? Unless others chime in on this brand, you could find a used Yamaha Zuma 125 for around $1500-2000. Might stumble on a used Lance Cabo. KYMCO is a great used option as well. They come in different cc's. I'm drawing a blank on other recommendations in that price point. Tired from work.

They all make a shiney beautiful product.
When my son asked me this same question, as they are full timers in the camper, for the last couple of years.
I told him, if you are willing to do the basic mechanical work yourself, go with an out of the box scooter.
BUT they usually do not have nation wide support for them.
I suggested they (as scOOter did) look into a branded older, well kept, scooter that is used.
Just my $.02

BMS sells rebadged Znen scooters but stocks them with better materials than many online brands. They were known for having stainless steel hardware instead of cheaper bolts. A few years ago someone rode that model scooter from San Francisco to Liberty Park, New Jersey without a breakdown.

You might look into either Bintelli or Wolf brand scooters. They are sold through B&M stores around the country. Bintelli has 94 franchisees at the moment who can service their scooters. You can pick up a 150cc scooter from them for about the same money.
