Mopeds/scooters???

As most of you will know i dont drive.....yet.

Been looking round and TBH i dont think i can afford a car, so decided to be a bit different and have a look at some mopeds/scooters. Now at this point your probably thinking im daft but.....

....1. Scooter is a brand new 08plate for £1600 (a lot cheaper than an 08 plate car)

2. Insurance quote fully comp £300 (3rd party F&T £260)
3. Fuel consumption is practically non-existant (a fiver will last ages)
4. I have found a 70cc cylinder kit and a few other performance mods to make it a bit more interesting than your average ped.
5. Does no claims earned on a ped count when i go for a car policy? if not is any discount offered for increased road knowledge?.

This is the ped im looking at


So has any had experiences with a ped? good points bad points? and just general opinions welcome.
