Motor scooters come in all different shapes and sizes and literally hundreds of companies and brands have different 125cc scooters for sale. Mopeds and scooters can be either electric or gas powered. Styles, colors, sizes, and prices will vary model by model and company but some things remain constant such as their great mileage per gallon. Motor scooters are a great alternative to fuel efficient cars unless you need that extra passenger space. 125cc scooters are capable of freeway travel and are able to get up to over 80 mph. Scooters with less power, such as the Yamaha 50cc scooter or lower, can't travel on the interstate which is a big advantage scooters with 125cc engines have over the smaller ones.

Moped scooters for sale in the US are becoming more popular all the time with the rising cost of gas and people looking to reduce their carbon footprint. With such high fuel efficiency and low carbon emissions, scooters are a great alternative to getting around that doesn't pollute quite as much as other forms of transportation. I mean with the wind in your face and the sun shining on your back, what more can you ask for from a vehicle that can avoid traffic jams and save tons on gasoline while also helping the environment?

The cool way to get around now a days is turning to mopeds and scooters. This can be seen with their increasing sales month by month. Why not join them and at least check out your options. You first have to decide if you want to buy new or used. If the latter, try looking for Vespas they have some of the best performing scooters. Next you'll have to think about what size engine you'll need. You want to pick the size that gives you the maximum mpgs while also delivering the speed and manuverablitly you need. I recommend the 125cc scooters they have the best bang for your buck in my opinion.

How Much Do 125cc Scooters Cost?

The average cost of a new 125cc scooter (gas or electric) is anywhere from $1,300 to over $4,000. This is nothing compared to how much a new fuel efficient hybrid car will cost you. Also consider how much money you'll save on gas over time. You never know when gas prices will go up again. That is one of the best reasons to buy a motor scooter right there. There are of course numerous other reasons to buy a scooter 125cc. So what type of 125cc scooter should you buy? Well there are several brands that I can recommend.

Yamaha 125cc Scooters

Right now Yamaha has two new 125cc scooters for sale. The first of which is the Yamaha Vino Classic. The vino classic is an extra durable and efficient retro design with a four stroke engine which delivers more torque. This 125cc motor scooter has an easy electric start and kick start option as well as a rear wheel locking device and tamper proof ignition.

The second is the all new 2009 Zuma 125 from Yamaha. This new innovation includes great shocks, wide sturdy wheels, and large cushioned seat for extra comfort even on unpaved or uneven roads. It has great fuel efficiency like all Yamaha's and this model includes a fuel-injected four stroke engine. Both of these bikes will set you back a measly $3,000.

Vespa 125cc Scooters

The new Vespa S 125 has a clean minimalist design reminiscent of classics such as the 50 Special and the Vespa Primavera. To highlight the new suspension, it has been downsized and the new stylish chrome trim on the mudguard gives it a sleeker look. It tops out at around 60mph stock and will set you back approximately $3,200.

Genuine Scooters

The 2009 Genuine Buddy features a 125cc 4-stroke gas engine and is a high performance scooter in the Genuine lineup, featuring an upgraded suspension as well as brakes and accessories. The buddy gets 90 mpg depending on rider weight and road conditions. This scooter will set you back at least $2,700.

There are of course hundreds of other 125cc scooters but that's far too many to mention here and anyway I only wanted to point out the few that I like. If you shop around and find the best price for your motor scooter then before you know it, you'll be saving yourself tons of cash. I mean if its your money, why should you give it to the oil companies when you could just buy and drive a 125cc scooter.
