My bike was about $1,400. For where I live, it was the right decision for me. I get to take a bike path most of the way and don't have to ride on the busy streets at 40 MPH in the dead of winter. An ebike doesn't require insurance or registration either, so not as much on going cost as a scooter.
Yeah, I take side streets. Some have bike lanes, some do not. If there were a dedicated bike path that cut out miles, that might make sense to get a bike.
50cc scooters don’t need an endorsement and insurance is $50/yr. So not really a big deal. Bit better coverage during inclement weather (pogies, windshield, leg covers).
