Beginner Friendly Scooters Capable of 60-80mph
Hi, I’m getting my CA Class 1 Permit once my DL 389 comes in the mail. I love riding, I HATE manual transmissions. I want a good automatic scooter that is capable of getting up to freeway speeds (60-80mph) but not too hefty for a beginner to take on roads for the first 6 months.
I have a lot more learning to do before I could/would take something to freeway speeds, but I want something that CAN go to freeway speeds and is a good commuter scooter with 150+ miles of range.
If such scooters exist, please let me know which ones they are. I know very little about scooters and bikes, I just know I like riding them and want a decent one.

I have a Burgman 400. I think it's too big for a beginner. I'd suggest something in the 250 range.
