Chinese scooters manufacturers – cheaper is not found. But it is not necessary to count on good quality. There's a chance that after the first fall, all the plastic will crack or fly rivets.
Japanese scooter – a combination of price and quality. As European models are first-class quality, but very affordable in price aspect. Parts are available and inexpensive.
