Gas powered scooters have been around since around 1900, right around the same time as cars were first starting to hit the market. They were pretty crude machines. They resemble what we think of today as a Moped because they were really just bikes with small motors attached to them. For the time they were awesome.
Boy, how they have changed today! Today's scooters range from the smaller 50cc versions that will get you around town or around campus, all the way up to 600cc bad boys that can go on the freeway and find speeds of well over 100 mph. That, my friend, is a fast gas scooter!
