Types of Scooter

Standard: a typical scooter will have storage space beneath the seat, usually large enough to accommodate a helmet and possibly a cubby hole or two in the bodywork for additional storage. Wheel size should also be considered, as the larger the wheel, the more stable the scoot. We recommend a minimum of 12 inches as smaller ones can feel rather nervous.

Sports: less bodywork so weather protection is not so good, but performance, brakes and handling are better. Storage space is usually less than a standard scooter.

Executive: More extensive bodywork, increased storage space and high levels of equipment. These tend to be heavier and not quite so easy to manoeuvre when parking, although they generally have larger wheels for improved stability and comfort.
