Hello,
How does IBA define a scooter? I see the Gold rides being under 300cc. But what characteristics must a vehicle have to be a "Scooter"? For example does a Honda C125 Super Cub rate being a scooter? It has foot pegs but still a step through design and small displacement.
According to wiki California rates anything under 149cc and faster then 30mph is "Motor-Driven Cycle.....commonly referred to as "scooters"". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scooter_(motorcycle)#California
Would we call a Burgman 650 a scooter but not a Super Cub C125??
Just a mid winter head scratcher. I saw a Burgman Executive the other day and could not believe the size of it. When I grew up the Honda Elite 250cc was the biggest scooter to hit these(USA) shores
