After about 3 months of researching different scooters to buy to zoom around town on, I finally decided on and found a Yamaha C3. With 115 mpg, cruising around town for fun won't cost me $50. Also looking at this picture makes me really want to clean my garage :)
From the yamaha website:
Key Features:
Old-school "box" design scooter accentuates cubic space - hence the name C3 - while it stresses function and simplicity.
Completely modern running gear including a fuel-injected engine makes this one super-economical to operate. The C3 will take you a long, long way on a single 1.2-gallon tank of gas.
High-function features include big tires on cast aluminum wheels, a motorcycle-type fork and handlebar.
Side-hinged locking storage compartment swallows up to nine gallons of gear.
Amazing fuel efficiency - the C3 will get up to 115 mpg and holds 1.2 gallons of gas.*
Engine:
Liquid-cooled three-valve, four-stroke engine is powerful, quiet and low-maintenance.
Electronic fuel injection: A 19mm Mikuni throttle body provides optimal mixture in all conditions and easy cold starts.
Amazing fuel efficiency—the C3 will take you a long, long way on a single 1.2-gallon tank of gas.
