- FazliS85, on 05/14/2008, -3/+2These scooters look way better than the crap I see around town!
- jimmick, on 05/14/2008, -2/+3Damn it
- dan0964, on 05/14/2008, -13/+7Ugly
- IznastY, on 05/14/2008, -3/+4x2
- ShrimpCrackers, on 05/14/2008, -1/+2It may be ugly, but the fact that your average scooter gets 85 mpg, and can be parked virtually anywhere... is beautiful...
- IznastY, on 05/14/2008, -3/+4x2
- Skelly11, on 05/14/2008, -7/+3crazy fools
- NoZb2k, on 05/14/2008, -7/+1Imagine seeing a chav on one of those.
- breakspirit, on 05/14/2008, -7/+6I would 100% ride most of these if I could ever afford them
- petrikigor, on 05/14/2008, -0/+3They are probably not as expensive as you'd think. One is selling for $4000. You could probably get at least three different ones for the price of a small new car.
- corryface, on 05/14/2008, -10/+5you might aswell tatoo a dick on your head
- MxSam, on 05/14/2008, -7/+2I bet it weighs a ton like a Honda Goldwing too
- Sepeteus, on 05/14/2008, -8/+5Judging from ground clearance of some of those scooters, they won't be very smooth rides.
- LMaxey, on 05/14/2008, -1/+11Ground clearance has little to do with how smooth the ride is, especially in urban settings. As long as it doesn't rub the ground, they're fine. God forbid they should encounter a speed bump, however.
- Sepeteus, on 05/14/2008, -0/+6I stand corrected.

- Ymeg, on 05/14/2008, -5/+8Dugg for the Animal Farm reference.
- MegaloMatt, on 05/14/2008, -0/+2Seconded
- ajchavar, on 05/15/2008, -0/+2i was about to post how i hated the title, i can't believe it took until i read your post to realize where it came from.
i feel ashamed that i didn't get it. ..
- Sashwan, on 05/14/2008, -4/+9I am sure it would be fun riding over speed bumps with one of those.
- sephil, on 05/18/2008, -0/+0No Speed bump in Tokyo...
- ZeroDarkness, on 05/14/2008, -3/+13Leave it to the Japanese to try and make scooters cool. I want to see a scooter that transforms into a giant robot with cleavage next! Seriously though, impressive. For the most part, they look like motorcycles with smaller wheels and barely any clearance space between the chassis and the ground. Imagine the look on someones face when they see the machine, think it looks bad-ass... and then the guy starts it up and it sounds like a normal damn scooter. No rumble, no roar, just a buzzing noise. I wonder what they're seriously gonna start tuning next... vibrators with large exhaust pipes and a monster engine? (with a hello kitty paint job)?
- markperia, on 05/14/2008, -1/+3"I wonder what they're seriously gonna start tuning next... vibrators with large exhaust pipes and a monster engine? (with a hello kitty paint job)?"
They already have those somewhere... probably.

- curseoflou, on 05/14/2008, -2/+4wouldn't mind having one for fuel consumption reasons, but it would be way to dangerous to operate where i live. I am almost run over weekly on my HD sportster.

- LMaxey, on 05/14/2008, -8/+3How can someone waste so much rice when there are starving people in the world?
- StolenLamp, on 05/14/2008, -1/+2That all-black Skywave is pretty sick looking...
- aladrin, on 05/14/2008, -1/+1Looks like most of those 'custom' scooters were just painted. -yawn-
- Jackosx, on 05/14/2008, -1/+1Much cooler...
http://monkeybike.co.uk/acatalog/leons_classic_mon ... - getbusylivin, on 05/14/2008, -2/+1Why couldn't the Faggio look like one of those!
- DeadMeatUK, on 05/14/2008, -1/+0but.... why ?
- dafragsta, on 05/14/2008, -1/+7I'm gonna get buried, but I think the more retro ones with less ***** sticking out actually look pretty cool.
- KaJuN4, on 05/14/2008, -0/+1Agreed. With regards to motorcycle styling, less is more.
- Mysk, on 05/14/2008, -0/+3these scooters sit so low to the ground that I would be concerned for their paint job. How do you go over bumps without taking out the bottom? It's literally a few inches off of the ground. o.O
- tlenker, on 05/14/2008, -0/+4I just raced with the skywave on Mario Kart Wii last night. Acceleration is good, but the top speed is lacking.
- Monkeydew06, on 05/14/2008, -0/+3I actually like the KYBELE Cyber Scooter, reminds me of something you'd see on the Jetsons
- graemee, on 05/14/2008, -0/+3FAIL - complete lack of anime chick themes.
- diemunkiesdie, on 05/14/2008, -0/+5Who else clicked on the title thinking there were going to be two wheeled scooters and four wheeled scooters? I was flipping through all the pictures real fast trying to see these "blah" four wheeled scooters, but I was sorely disappointed!
- NiGHTSChao, on 05/14/2008, -0/+3No Akira-like design T__T
- InfinitySnatch, on 05/14/2008, -0/+1Holy *****, it's the Schpel Tiger.
- cheeseron, on 05/14/2008, -0/+1Just like No More Heroes
- ASSASSYN360, on 05/14/2008, -0/+0I still can't bring myself to drive a faggio in GTAIV. So how could I drive a faggio in real life.
- leerayIG88, on 05/14/2008, -0/+1I just hope I don't drink and drive with these scooters. I actually might get killed.
- KingGorilla, on 05/14/2008, -1/+1They all look like things I've put up my ass O_o
- Poppinfresh, on 05/14/2008, -0/+2Japanese Scooters: For when slapping Ho's from a Cadillac is just to much effort.
- porque, on 05/15/2008, -0/+0anyone have videos of these bikes?
- wiggs08, on 05/15/2008, -0/+2think "pimp my scooter" will be popular in the US?
- Ruger11mcrdpi, on 05/18/2008, -0/+0Seriously, how much HP/Torque do these scooters have and how does it compare to american scooters or even motorsycles?
- gormanwvzb, on 08/12/2008, -0/+1Scooters are nice and all, but they create more smog than cars, way more! I read a great article called "Scooter Polluter" at http://economicefficiency.blogspot.com/2008/08/sco ...
While they definitely use less gas, does the added smog cancel that benefit out? - makehydrogen, on 09/07/2008, -0/+0Scooter have to be BROAD< u duff!
