I think they are called A Gyro, 49cc and exempt from taxes, licences etc. The cycle shop towards the Kings palace can order one for you.

Does something like that require a license plate and registration? If not, I bet some MIB try one on anyway to see what they can get. Pete :cheers:

Coincidentally, Udamotor had a couple of their wares on display in MV today. One 2-wheeler and one 3-wheeler, though not the same model that you chose Major.

Can't be licensed, and I think not supposed to be used on main roads ( but, so what?).

Hello, :)

even 3-wheel electric scooters can "capsize" as my wife unfortunately found out
when she - proudly sitting on her new scooter - exited our premises breaking a leg in the process. :cry:

Which makes us a two-legged couple for several weeks. :(

Sorry to hear that Major. When I eventually need one I think it will be 4 wheels.
