Scooter For Disabled

I have had a scooter for 3 years, but have never used it. I am disabled, but it won't work for my handicap. I've kept it wrapped in plastic and stored in a controlled environment. What's the best way/place to sell it?

Depends in part on how much you want to sell it for. Craiglist IS a good suggestion. But there is also CheapCycle.com, kijiji.com, and ioffer.com.

Where are you, what kind is it, and how much do you want - I might be interested.

( www.vawatchdog.org ) From NBC Nightly News, Saturday, April 19, 2008.

There are no local shops around here that do that type of work and no I'm not kidding, I realize you can't go fast with training wheels I just need them to get confident, I've never been on a scooter

I seriously doubt if (fixed) training wheels would even function on a scooter, other than at very low speeds. Get much faster than 6-8 mph, and the wheels will prevent turning by leaning (as a scooter is meant to), while the width of the wheel's track will be too narrow to offer stability for normal "car" steering. This thing would be a death-trap.

If you intend to have the wheels raise up automatically as speed increases (as some GoldWing owners have done), then it might work, but will be expensive.

If you are able to stand, consider the MP3, a 3-wheeled scooter made by Piaggio. It can stand on its own at stops. It comes in multiple sizes, from 125cc to 500cc

You can navigate some of the streets in a scooter and some of them not. There is a lot of steps everywhere and there are not many ramps around, especially in the smaller streets. Some of the walkways are very narrow too. Dubrovnik is in a steep hill, which can make it harder to get around.

During the busiest tourist season the main streets of Dubrovnik are so full of people that it's hard for anyone to get around or see much. If I ever go there again I will make sure to go there at a less busy tourist season.

yes it is true you need to register it with the DVLA if it is faster than 4mph and get a tax disk but that is free, the people at a good mobility shop are usually able to give you all the advice you need.
