Did you know that a 250cc scooter can actually go as fast as a lot of motorcycles? Well, it is true. So if you are tired of having so much pain at the pump, check into getting a scooter. They are a lot less expensive than a motorcycle and quite as scary for most people. There are many great brands to choose from, so you really can not go wrong.

250cc scooters are a great way to go. Here are some great brands to look at.

The Honda Motor Company -- Although they don't have a 2500cc scooter, the 1500 SH150i is a great alternative. It may not be quite as fast, but I think it is worth taking a look at. Honda makes more engines that anyone in the world.

The Kymco Company -- If you are willing to part with about $4000 you can get your hands on a Grandista 250. It has a 4 stroke engine, but no fuel injection.

Vespa - The GTS 250 is the more affordable version ($6000) and the GVT 250 is the high end model ($7000+) because of its old school looks. Both feature a 4 stroke, liquid cooled engine with electronic fuel injection.

United Motors Scooters - The Expressway, from United Motors, is the most affordable scooter in this category. It has a four stoke, liquid cooled engine and a price tag of right around $2000. I don't know about you, but that is pretty cheap for that kind of power.

Cheetah - The Cheetah Touring 250 is a very popular model that comes in at around the $3000 mark. Not bad for this size scooter. No fuel injection, but it can still move pretty fast.

Yamaha - Yamaha has a one called the Roketa MC-54-250, not exactly the best name, but a good set of wheels nonetheless. They say it tops out at 85 mph and is priced around $2000.

You tell me: What can go 80 mph, and get 80 mpg? I'll tell you right now that there is no car that can. So if you are in the market for a new vehicle, take a quick look at the 250cc scooter market. They may give you the affordability and efficiency you are looking for.[youtube:J1jq11VvO8o;Nothing better than a [link:Stree Legal Scooter];http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1jq11VvO8o&feature=related]
