Lol assuming you need a brand new scooter every time, thats how we got in this **** in the first place.
How many miles do you think you can get on a scooter before it needs to be replaced? How many miles on a car?

El Lobo, do motorcycles wear out faster than cars?
I'm not arguing against scooters. I'm all for trying the experiment. The problem is a little more complicated than you believe it to be though. Its not going to be as environmentally friendly as you think it is, and may even be worse than some other options.
Smaller engines tend to wear out faster than larger ones. This isn't just a mechanical phenomena. In biology larger creatures tend to live longer than smaller ones. Bacteria live hours, insects live days, mice live months, larger mammals live years. If you're interested in knowing why this is true, check out this book.
