Title: 100 lb scoot
Post by: CROSSBOLT on November 02, 2013, 02:48:26 PM

Anyone have any idea if a 100 pound (200 kg) scoot exists. I am talking about a minimalist machine that I can pick up and load on a boat and then off-load.

   I had a Baha from TSC stores and ive seen them at canadian tire in canada,I could pick it up so it must be about 100 lb,s  it was $ 550.00 on sale when I got mine,  top speed was 30 mph.  but you can play with the carb. and get 40 mph. it has fat trail tires,.  it has  196 cc. low on HP> but good with the torque,.  the only thing that failed was the chain tensioner rubber wheel,. kept wearing out,.

I'd go with a regular bike, maybe even a folding type with a small engine mounted to the front tire, definatly would make the weight max out around 20 MPH or go with an electric scoot, the kind you stand on. I've also seen cooler type carts with an engine built in, not street legal though.

Tell up more about what you have in mind.

The "Underbones" as we call them here, weigh around 90+ kgs., 100-125cc, can carry 2, 100+ mpg, 60+ mph top speed... but I don't know if they are available in the U.S.   I know the Honda Cub was...
This is the Kymco Visa R 110cc.

100lbs is abut 45kg, not 200kg!  The Honda Spree is about 42kg, less than 100lb.  They're about as easy to pick up as a sack of cement.  Also I believe that any of the Honda Monkey bikes are under 100lbs.
