I think of getting some kind of l8ght motorcycle that I could load on
my utility trailer and go exploring.
Maybe something between 150cc and 250cc.....weighing no more than
250 pounds.
Not sure I'd want a rough riding dirt bike or a more refined scooter.
I would use it mostly off road but on groomed trails rather than rut
filled logging roads.....well, most of the time.



Husqvarna makes some interesting light motorcycles

How many towns have Husqvarna motorcycle dealerships? That would be
my first concern.


Don seems undecided about a small motorcycle (dirt bike) or a scooter.

A scooter is really not designed for off-road riding, even on groomed
trails.* They are designed for on-road use.* For his purposes, I'd
stick to a small dirt-bike type motorcycle.

I don’t know why a guy who can still mount a motorcycle would want a 500+
cc scooter when there are plenty of capable motorcycles around with
engines
in that size class.


Completely different riding experiences.* A high powered scooter is
*not* the same as a comparatively powered motorcycle.



I appreciate that. As dangerous as motorcycle riding is, and it is,
high-powered scooter riding has to be more dangerous because of less
maneuverability.
