My nephew wants a scooter. Where has the best prices on a 49cc scooter that you have seen?

I am biased towards TGB scooters, but those are $2k. Bullet-proof but I am guessing your nephew wants the bargain priced Chinese scooter. Call Alan at 909-591-8800 for Taotao (or to ask about the TGB's and where your local dealer is) and see what price he can get on a Taotao. The only issue is that he would only be dealing with the Chino, Calif. warehouse, so shipping cross-country might be a deal-killer vs. closer dealers who will drop-ship out of one of the east coast Taotao warehouses. Couldn't hurt to ask

yeah he's looking at spending $600. I think they are buying 3 of them. My 70 year old Dad wants one, and 2 of my nephews.

My ole man's last bike was a Goldwing. This will probably feel a little different. :)

A friend bought one of the BWS 50 scooters when Excalibur was selling the Lintex brand scooters, and if you look on Taotao's site, they also have a BWS under 'clearance.' Not the same brand, but identical at leat in looks, and both being Chinese, I am sure they are near identical. I liked my friend's scooter due to the wide wheels/tires. My guess is even on 'clearance' it will cost more than the boring-looking bargain ATM-50 or whatever it is called, but your nephew should ask about the BWS 50 for whatever it is worth.

Call Alan and see what deal he can make for you. They are open until 5:30 pm Pacific time
