What is happening with the Anti-Scooter?
« on: May 01, 2012, 02:10:35 PM »
My sister in law loves the Enertia and wants an electric ride...but she is 5'1" and wants either an electric scooter or much shorter electric motorcycle.

The Brammo anti-scooter seems like the perfect fit...if Brammo is making one...

Any news? Seems like a nice urban scooter to go along with the Enertia would really address City and Suburban users...both tall and short.

I may be wrong, but I think the anti-scooter was shelved around the time that the Encite and Engage showed up.  It may come off the shelf someday, but don't hold your breath.

True...the Encite would be a good size for her, but she wants a twist and go like the Enertia...

I think she just need tall as hell boots.

currently she is riding a Honda Gyro and looks like a seven year old riding down the road...





I couldn't film any more as I was laughing too hard...

IET supposedly works fine as a twist-and-go, though obviously you lose a lot of the advantages by doing so. You can work up to using the clutch for higher acceleration or top speed if you like.
