l looked into many options.

The electric scooter range is only 40 miles, as that range I can cycle or if I lived in a hilly area go for a decent electric bike.

However while range is low, the question is how long the batteries last.

I have just got a 1968 Honda scooter in almost perfect condition (4 stroke - 49cc). I got it cheap on ebay. Works great. It could last long after I am dead.

How long will an electric scooter last?

For half the price I can get a petrel scooter, that I can go 200 miles and fill up for £2, then drive off.

While charging it could cost me almost as much plus 5 hours or whatever to charge.

It is like electric cars. It would make me ill worrying about finding a spot to charge them.

In the UK the charging places are being ripped up for the copper by criminals.
