If you like scooters we publicly humiliate you and then ban you.

Rockers are better.

Former chinese scooter owner says; they suck.
Not enough power to get out of their own way, parts aren’t rare at all, but some come only from china so good luck if your electricals go out, build quality slightly below that of a porta potty and about as much cool factor.
Yes, there are good scooters. But for the money you could get a waaaaaaaaay cooler/more reliable motorcycle or a cheap car which is loads safer (but far less cool). tl;dr-> scooters suck. Great scooters from a brand name don’t suck, but cost too much relative to other better options.

when I was 14 scooters where the bomb, now since that was over 22 years ago I hate scooters with a passion. How could something so fucken loud go so fucken* (google auto correct suggests “Turducken”) slow. You hear them miles away, and since they go so slow, you hear them forever. yeah a Harley is loud too, but at least it also goes away quicker.

Riding a scooter has the public humiliation thing baked right in. We don’t have to do anything!

There was a whole episode a while back when a friend of mine got a bike and a horrible little weedwhacker engine-powered with chain drive push scooter (12” bike tires, you know the type) at the same time, and after I got it tuned it proceeded to humiliate us. You see, the full size bike had endless problems - cooling system, compression, carb, electrics, on and on. The two-stroke jerry-rig abomination: one yank, and “PPBBBBTBBBBTBTBTB” away, at up to ten miles an hour, rain or shine. A little twerp, it was. Mocking us.Kind of like this one:

Good point. Let them continue riding the scooter, then ban.

If you don’t have a soft spot for scooters, you haven’t seen Quadrophenia.

What’s wrong with scooters?

I’m riffing on the “ban the mods” title. Not much wrong with the right kind of scooter.
