Mine has 860 miles on it. I have broken it in accordingly. $2500 seems like a fair price. 1k off MSRP. It's hard to price a "new to market" USED scooter.

$2500 was probably a little low, at least based on how fast it sold(the ad was only up for a day or two before it sold.)

I would have figured the first ones to sell used would go for $2900-$2999 asking price. At least by me they are still hard to find so that would add a little to the resale price. But different areas will have different prices.


All I know for sure is that I was very tempted by it.

You’re selling?

I think so. I have a couple other 150s. The RA seems to be my least favorite

Been a hot minute since I was here. My Buddy Italia 125 was stolen in 2016, and I just decided I need a new scoot! Torn between the Buddy Kick and the Royal Alloy GT150. Read the RA is slower, so not sure I will enjoy it. Like the idea of EFI, since I am a fair weather rider, only use it for errands around town. Shocked at no under seat storage on the GT, but love the look! Any advice welcome! I will want the lower profile seat for the GT, since I am on top toes with the regular seat....
