Scooty review
I have been using this scooty for a while now it is comfortable and easy to ride .it's a good option for people who are daily travelling to their college or any work places.it contains dual battery, easy to ride and light weight.Everyone can ride this because it's very light weight and low However top speed is quite limited and pocket friendly

review on scooter
i feel this scooter was the best decision i made, very comfortable and smooth riding experience. mileage is very good and maintenance doesn't cost much. the color is also very attractive and the scooter doesn't heat up during summer and extreme heat conditions. overall, this is very much worth the money.
