How fast does a 150cc scooter go?

Answer 1

This really depends upon the manufacturer and model of your scooter, but a 150 cc scooter will generally top out at about 60-65 mph. The cheaper Chinese models will only do about 50-55 mph, while good Hondas will go up to 65 mph. I had an 86 Honda Elite 150 scooter, and it would do about 63 mph with me on it. Considering I only weigh around 170 pounds, this is not real fast. I would have liked about 20 mph more out of it, but it was OK for my first street bike. A 150 is good for a beginners bike, but is far to slow for one who wants to go on 55 mph roads or inter states. Sure they will do the speed limits, but just barley. First of all, most cars are going 80+ mph, and your in the slow lane red lining the engine at 60 mph. Then the wind comes and a small hill, and 50-54 mph is tops. As long as you stay in the city it is fine, but they are by no means highway bikes. I would not ride anything under 300 cc on the highway. A 400 is a bike I personally would recommend. They will cruise into the wind all day at 80 mph on the highway and do 106+ mph.
