Booreem Iron Man Gas Scooter

Style:  Street

Vendor: Samszone

This gas scooter previously retailed at Samszone for $349.  With the price drop you can get a lot of scooter for your money. It comes with a ultra wide, double padded, removable seat. The seat features adjustable height, double springs and a spring loaded shock absorbing seat post. 

I like the super bright "ET Style" headlights and it's one of the few street models that comes with directionals and a working brake light as well as a horn.  This gas powered scooter also comes with an extra large locking cargo box and a tool kit.  Huge 10"x4" tires with a chain drive and disc front and drum rear brake round the package out.  The reference to the battery is strictly for the lights, horn and directionals;  there is not an electric motor on this gas powered scooter.

A very impressive gas scooter for a great price.

43cc Tornado Gas Powered Scooter

Style:  Gas Scooter

Vendor: Samszone

Tornado gas scooters are a well designed under $300 model.  They have a unique mono-shock in the rear and have front and rear disc brakes.  The 10" tires are nice step up from the typical 9" that come in this price range and the 3.5" width of the tires make for a smoother ride as well.  I like the appearance of the fatter tire profile on this type of scooter as well.  If you are looking for a good entry level gas scooter that can take a fair amount of abuse, this is it.

City Rider SX24 Gas Scooter

Style:  Street

Vendor: Neo Scooters

The City Rider SX24 gas scooter is Neo Scooters entry level model.  This is a ruggedly designed street style scooter that can carry up to 400 pounds.  It's got a 22.5cc engine but still manages a brisk 25mph.  The tires are a little smaller than what I would prefer (I like 9" min) but to get a 22.5cc gas scooter that has a centrifugal clutch (many in this size have friction drives) I would overlook the tires.  This gas scooter also folds flat and comes with a seat.

43cc S880 Mini Chopper

Style:  Mini Chopper

Vendor: Samszone

The S880 is the most inexpensive mini chopper that I represent.  What struck me immediately was the level of detailing this gas powered mini chopper has.  Working lights both front and back, functional mirrors and a high-back seat round it out.  Note the different size wheels in front and back to emphasize the "chopped" look.  The rear wheel is actually comprised of two tires.  I cannot comment on why they design them this way, but have seen it done on other gas mini-choppers.

36cc Razorback Gas Scooter

Style:  Gas Scooter

Vendor: Neo Scooters

Neo Scooters carries the complete line up of Razorback gas scooters.  There are five models ranging in price from $319 to $419.  This 36cc Razorback scooter is the mid point for the Razorback line up.  It has comparable features to the City Rider SX24 priced at $299 but here of course you get the bigger engine.  With the same size 8.5" tires as the SX24 you pick up another inch of ground clearance.  Both use centrifugal clutches with a chain drive.  Appearance wise, I like the lines of the City Rider SX24 better with the wood deck, but would probably spend the extra $20 to get the bigger engine and 25% more ground clearance that the 26cc Razorback gas powered scooter offers.

Boreem Tankman Gas Scooter

Style:  Street

Vendor: Samszone

Harvey's Choice!

This gas scooter was as high as $385 the beginning of May, 2004 making it too expensive for a tricked out street style scooter.  The price has now dropped close to $60 and it's a steal for that price.  This gas scooter is one of the few street scooters with 10" tires and a stamped aluminum footdeck.  For the difference between stamped and billet footdecks see our article on Footdecks.

The 35cc engine is more than adequate for moderate commutes and the headlight, horn and keyed start make it fully street functional.  I like the curve they put into the handlebars.  They are high enough too, to make for a comfortable commute.  Compare all these features to the other gas scooters in the price range and I think you will agree that this one stands out.
