  1. It is a well known fact that 75% of the breaking power on motorcycles and motorscooters comes from the front wheel. It is also a well known fact that there is no dampener on the front suspension of your scooter, so to make a quick stop, you will be riding a pogo stick.

  2. The front leg shield is designed to repel water and small debris that may otherwise hit your legs. It is not designed to protect you from rear bumbers of other vehicles 1.

  3. When dealing with automobiles, it is important to remember that the bigger they are, the smaller you are. An average SUV sees you as a crack in the pavement. 2

  4. The engine rests on the right hand side of your scooter, causing it to be unbalanced. After enough riding, the rear axle will bend to compensate, causing all of the rubber on the left side of your real wheel to come off, reducing friction, traction, and increasing the chances of you hitting small children on their way home from school.

  5. While riding in the rain, the crotch becomes a perfect water resovoir. 3
