Rolling on sixteen inch scooters

Posted by Motorcycle Information Published in Home, Scooters and Mopeds

The hot seller for 2010 in the 16 inch scooter wheel category will likely be the new Honda SH150i. The name is, well, kind of missing, but this Honda scooter is already winning a big fan base. The SH150i top speed is not really an issue because it will take you to 65 mph without complaining.
