| Moss Company's MOSQUITO STINGER - On indefinite backorder from the company! |
This scooter is amazing. I have used it for a couple years, it is in brand-new shape, I have been the only owner, and kept it immaculate.
This baby zips at up to 25 mph, the fastest of any motorized scooter. The larger, bike-style wheels allow travel on all types of surfaces. See below for all the details.
Scooter Details:
- 39.6cc engine
- CHAIN-driven (Highly superior to the other way)
- Gas powered - never worry about having to keep it charged
- Gets about 100 miles per gallon
- Specifications say it can go 25mph; I've had it go faster.
- Lightweight
- Large, 16-inch bicycle wheels and tires with tubes
- Motorcycle-style Throttle
- I bought a seat for 50 bucks about a year ago, greatly improving the convenience
- Perfect for getting to work and back, or just having fun around the neighborhood!
- Does not need a license in any state that I'm aware of.
- Safe, reliable, and so exhilarating!
- Sounds like a mosquito when it zips by, hence the name.
- You can even go throught the snow. The engine on the back wheel gives amazing traction.
- This is extremely easy to fix, and maintain yourself. Original User's Manual comes with it. I did any work on it myself.
This scooter is currently unavailable from any retailer. This is the latest model, I bought it in 2000 for $700. I bought the seat for $50, and have kept it up and put over $300 worth of replaced parts into it. The brakes are within 6 months old, the rear sprocket was put on last week, the chain is oiled religiously, the tires and tubes are new.
If you live in the northeast US, I would be happy to let you come to me to test drive it, or pick it up. There is a VERY LOW RESERVE on this, considering what it is worth and how much I put into it. If you would like to email me with a price you are thinking of, I would be happy to consider it if I cannot sell it during this auction.
You may not have this by Christmas, but it depends on how fast you pay, and your shipping choice.
Paypal is preferred, I will take check or money order as well.
Shipping TO BE DETERMINED. I will ship your preference, with a reciept for shipping. I do not believe in over-inflated Handling costs.
This scooter is very rare, you will not find it anywhere else because everyone who owns one loves them. Here are some alternatives to compare to:

List price for the Stinger is ordinarily: $700
A) They are not chain-driven, and therefore not as powerful or controllable;
B) They are electric powered, meaning horrible acceleration, and not dependable or usable for hours like the Stinger;
C) They do not have enough ground-clearance or versatile tires to handle any situation; or
D) They cost too much.
All of these reasons are what brought me to The Stinger to begin with. I am selling only because I need money for school. I will miss my Stinger dearly...
THIS IS THE ONLY *STINGER SCOOTER* ON EBAY!
