The model that launched the motorized scooter trade more than 20 years ago, the Go-Ped Sport is a solid, no-frills gas scooter that's reliable and easy to maintain. The Sport features a heavy-duty, aircraft-quality steel frame that supports up to 400 pounds, along with a wide, low-riding platform that's smooth and stable. As a result, the scooter is ideal for teens and active adults who demand top quality at an affordable price.
The Sport is outfitted with a race-born GPL290 engine that's been reconfigured for _quieter operation and fuel economy, yet is still amazingly powerful in its small and lightweight package. The engine variation is created through its modified cylinder, which has smaller intake and exhaust ports, a nonadjustable carburetor, and an intake silencer. Add the features together and you get an engine that delivers smooth yet thrilling acceleration, great torque for climbing hills, and speeds of up to 20 miles per hour.
Other details include Go-Active rubber tires, a 26-mile range per tank, a reliable direct-friction drive system, a fuel tank capacity of 1 liter, a kickstand, caliper front brakes, and rear engine compression braking. The scooter--which offers handlebars that fold and lock for easy transport and storage--measures 34 by 42 by 13 inches (W x H x D) and carries a lifetime warranty on the frame and forks.
