TAO SMART DEALSNOW Brings Brand New 150cc Gas Fully Automatic Street Legal Scooter TaoTao 150cc with Matching Trunk Included - CHOOSE your COLOR

I only have about 250 miles on this scooter but so far I'm not disappointed. Starts quickly and runs very well. This came in a metal frame on a wooden pallet. I put it together alone but I would recommend at least two people do it. The front wheel has to be installed and I caused some slight damage to the threads on the bolt that fastens it to the forks. I have forgotten how much it weighs but it is hard for one person to remove it from the metal shipping frame. There are no written assembly instructions. I was almost finished with the assembly before I realized the assembly instructions were on a DVD. The only real problem I had was putting on the headlight assembly. Incredibly aggravating. The screws are too short and the metal clips fall off. I finally got it in place and you probably wouldn't notice but it still isn't exactly right. You need a modest tool set and some experience doing this kind of stuff, otherwise I would suggest you get some help. One more thing. There is a small creek behind my house and the scooter wound up in it, completely submerged. I couldn't get it running again and could not find anyone in Chattanooga or Huntsville that would work on it. I finally found a place in Rome, Ga about 65 miles away. They got it running again ($190) but when I got it home the turn signals stopped working. I took it to a local shop that works on mowers, 4-wheelers and anything like that (jet-ski, etc). He has had it about a month trying to get a flasher for it. Talked to him today and he is still waiting on the flasher to come. So, I can say it is a good scooter as long as you don't submerge it in water!

BIGGEST hunk of JUNK ever to be made! What a RIP OFF! Stopped working the FIRST TIME I started it up and got gas in it. Company will not take it back so buyer beware! After LOTS of time and energy on my part the scooter ran for about 30 total miles off and on. Now, it will NOT start again and I am at my wits end. I'll sell it for scrap to try and get a little bit of my money back. JUNK JUNK JUNK! Do not buy one of these...the savings is NOT worth it!

I chose to go with the TaoTao lancer 150 because of hours of research and review reading- I convinced myself that if I put the work into it I could maintain a reliable scooter for an insanely affordable price. I received the scooter yesterday- on time and as told, and began assembling myself. Assembly was fairly easy with help from youtube. I reccomend you use your own tools and have an extra person to help. The average joe should be able to assemble this scooter-ready to ride in 3-4 hours. As far as the appearance of the scooter- looks just as it does in the picture. Quality- as expected for 1000 dollars- most of the scooter exterior is hard plastic but if you want to something more solid you're gonna need to spend 2000-3000 dollars- and I didn't have that. Performance- so far, the scooter is great! It runs great and accelerates quickly. Starts just fine and all the lights work. I will change the gear and engine oil within the first 300 miles, since the shipping oil is garbage. I weigh 240 lbs and I have accelerated to 40mph already. I'm not going to push the limits, but this is a great scooter, so far, and if you're looking for something to get around town or something just for fun I would recommend this scooter. I will update again soon.

Needs better assembly instructions. Speedometer and odometer are in metric. Assembly is tedious without good assembly instructions. On a positive note once it is assembled it is a fun bike to ride. Beware in New Hampshire it is considered a motorcycle requiring a motorcycle licence registration and yearly inspection. The panels have fitment issues. The owners manual is in small print.

This is my third scooter, My first a 50, my second a used 150. This one here is my first brand new one. Unboxing was easy, There was two of us but the process was easy enough that one person can do it. It comes on a palet, Bolted in key places to a metal box frame to ensure it doesnt slide around. The process didnt take long, Close to an hour to get it off the pallet and removed from the metal frame. From there its a matter of putting together the front end, The forks on mine were already in place, Only had to asymble the front tire and the fairings (The plastic bits).Aside from that, Had to put the battery together (Didnt come with the acid stuff). Mount the headlights / front fairing and she was more or less good to go! Once its all together only had to start it up, Letting it run for 20 - 30 minutes before draining the "Shipping oil". Okay for t hose who dont know, When you buy anything motorized it comes packed with Shipping oil inside the engine. It can be run with this but its like, Super thin and can be hazardous to actually ride with this in your bike, Anywho, We drained the packing oil (Make sure you shut it off!) put our favorite 10 - w40 in, Changed the gear oil and went for a ride. The bike is awesome.First 100 miles never took it over 35mph. This is your break in period. Just did the first official oil change at 128 miles and now she purrs like a kitten all the way up to 50mph.It should be noted, These scooters are not a fan of cold weather! While they run great they can be a pain to get started when its cold out (Talkin 40 and below). Long story short, Mine can now easily go up to 50 - 55. Once she reaches 300 and is due for the next oil change and once over again, I plan on pushing her a little more.Would definately buy again, Consider this an entry into the motorcycle world.

This is a good scooter for about a month. Then you have to start replacing everything, wiring starts to malfunction, switches will get stuck. The engine dies. And a list of stuff im sure i will add onto in the following months.
