Electric Motor Scooter or Gas Motor Scooter: How Do They Compare

By Zulu Johnson

Scooters have been traditionally designed with a step through frame, however newer designs made for fun recreation are sleeker and are designed for standing on. They are more just super sized kick scooters with powered engines! From motor-less kick scooters with just a riding pad and a steering wheel these model scooters have evolved into motor powered riding machines. With both gasoline and electric motors, each scooter type has its advantages and disadvantages.

Electric scooters are simple and easy to use. Ride your scooter till the battery goes flat, swap with a spare battery or recharge and use again. This simplicity make for easy use with no knowledge of the inter workings of your electric scooter. Bundle this with the super quiet high performance electric motor; an electric scooter is bound to bring you hours of scooting fun!

Gas motor scooters have the traditional noisy gasoline engine; however they give the wonderful feeling of raw power and top performance. Gas scooters have the advantage of being a very fast motor scooter; reaching speeds of up to 30+ mph. Going out for some serious use of your motorized scooter? That�s find bring extra gas and simply refuel when your tank runs out.

Physically the gas and electric scooters generally look the same, with both seated and stand only designs available. Electric scooters appear to be more compacted and tidy, whereas the gas powered scooter�s engine takes up more room and has a gas tank attached.

When all things are summed, it comes down to a simple choice as to what motor scooter would suit you best; gas or electric? The electric scooter gives you simplistic fun with easy maintenance and upkeep. Charging your scooter is as simple as plugging into your power outlet before bed. You can also look forward to happy neighbors due to the quietness of the electric scooter with the small sacrifice of speed. Can�t slow down? A gas scooter will take you anywhere you want to go at great speeds with the great sound of raw gas power!

Don't Ride With Others-Although the seat on a scooter may look big enough to fit more than one person, it isn't safe and should never be done. Taking scooter safety seriously means you always ride alone. If more than one person rides on a scooter at once, the stability and function of the bike is compromised. This can result in an accident even at places you roe a scooter through hundreds of times.

The spark must occur at the right time. Just about all scooters made since around 1980 have an electronic ignition. These systems can rarely be set. In general, the spark occurs just before the piston reaches the top of it's stroke. There is a slight delay between the spark plug fire and the fuel-air mixture ignition. That's why the spark occurs a little early. Most ignition systems have an advance unit build in. As the engine speeds up, the time of the spark retards a little bit. This helps the engine fire the mixture at the proper time.

Next, consider whether your exhaust pipe is clogged. This is especially a problem with two stroke scooters. The unburned fuel/oil mixture builds up in the exhaust pipe along with carbon over time. If the exhaust pipe is clogged, your scooter will run terribly or not at all. It can be difficult to tell if the exhaust pipe is clogged. The easiest way to tell is to remove it and try to start the scooter. It will be a bit loud - two strokes will sound like a chain saw. If it runs, you know were the problem lies.

The most important thing to do is regular oil changes for four stroke engines. Two stroke engines consume their engine oil, so you don't have to worry about changing it. Our scooters only hold about a quart of engine oil. The bigger Yamaha scooters have oil filters, but the Hondas do not have filters (just a small screen). Given the small displacement (engine size) of most scooters, they tend to get run hard. The small amount of oil, lack of oil filter and high rpm usage leads to oil breakdown much quicker than your in automobile. I change my scooter oil every 1000 miles. This may sound extreme, but consider two points: How long does it take you to go 1000 miles? Unless you are riding a 250cc scoot on the highway, it will probably take you a few months. It's not like you need to change it every week. If you are putting on a lot of highway miles, the engine is probably not being stressed with a lot of stop-and-go riding. You also are less likely to run the engine through a lot of hot/cold cycles. In this case you may be able to extend the oil change time. But I wouldn't :>)
