    Are scooters popular in the US?

    I drool every time I see this Derbi GPR50:

    That looks more like a motorcycle than a scooter to me.

    This is what a scooter looks like:

    Is that a scooter? I'd call that a bike. A scooter is something an acne-ridden pre-pubescent teen rev head rides about on.

    Edit: Just beat me to it Computerized!

    Although not *really* a scooter, it is considered a scooter here in the Netherlands. Anyone older than 16+ can ride it.

    Bikes are bigger, I guess.
