It costs a LOT to get a license and pay for running it! I Would probably save up 1,500 before your on a secure amount to support it for at least a year or so

man I am 13 and think that you should get more money and buy a better one… I invest cash and double it online. You only need to search, invest the money, earn and get a cool one. Then girls will crash on ya lol.

Try looking in Autotrader or your local paper. Also give your local bike test school a ring and see if they can recommend anywhere – you won't get much for your money but it's a start. I wouldn't expect to get your insurance out of that as well. Best place to start looking for insurance would be confused.com or similar.
Good luck and happy riding!

well since its your first scoot, i recommend a vespa, piaggo, lambretta. These are a little more pricey but are well worth it. Definitely start with a 50cc. One word of caution DO NOT BUT A SCOOTER OVER THE INTERNET ESPECIALLY CHINESE!!!!!!! since you live in london, im sure there are alot of good scooter dealerships. Im 15 and ride a 50cc Genuine Roughhouse, never had any problems with it. Hope this helps a little

I'm from the states. If I'm understanding the exchange rate. I would save more money to get something better. The only scooters I see you getting what you have is a used one from a food delivery service; looking to get a new delivery scooter. A cheap model from Asia that a lot of people(including in the states) would not take a chance on. Or an old antique from Mister Filby's shed that haven't be ridden over 10YRS.
