So, my take is that smaller is not better. I started out with a 50cc, then a 150cc scooter. I found the smaller engines were getting completely rebuilt every few months, and to be honest, I just got sick of the time it was costing me.

My solution was to buy a new 320cc yamaha R3 with 39 months warantee. If it breaks, the shop gets to fix it. I'm much happier doing stuff I actually want to do during my scant free time on weekends.

A 50cc is actually more dangerous, because you are just in the way of most motorists you are sharing the road with. They arent happy about being stuck behind you on every hill, and tend to do dangerous (to you at least) things because of this.
