[Marc Willow]

Hi all...I have a friend interested in buying a scooter. He asked me how fast the S150 can go. I told him I would ask you guys. SO..how fast does the S150 go??? Thanks, Marc Willow

I've had one up to 65 but it still had more to give. There's a nice review here which claims 75 mph:

I have the WONDERFULLY LARGE windshield installed and I get 60mph.

I weigh 245lbs and am getting 75mph flat out. I just bought and installed some new side bags for my S150 and have not tried it on the highway yet. Bike has less than 200 miles on it. I think it will get alittle faster when broken in. Even saw 80mph on a slight downhill. :peace:

65 +/- a few MPH's is about what I've seen. I've read some posts here which talk about the speedo being a few MPH's on the high side so those that are seeing 75+ are probably actually in the high 60's. I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable going much more than 65 though. I'm not an experienced rider so maybe with time I'll feel more secure at those high speeds, but 65 is at the edge of my comfort zone for now...
