my dad and his gf are in jacksonville looking for a place to live since we are getting transferred there this summer which is when i can get my license. my dad calls me and tells me that i am getting a motor scooter cuz him and his gf want it and im the only one with out a vehicle, plus it will help on my insurance. and i told him no its gay and so he tells me to look at the Kawasaki version. i look and see the new ninja's body and so i search for used ones. i find one i can afford and tell my dad. now my mom wont give me the $1000 bucks she was going to give me for a car because she doesnt think it is appropriate for a 16 yr old and it is too dangerous. this is coming from the same 36 yr. old who has 2 tattoos and was going to let me get one (just to show how crazy she is). do u think she is overreacting?
 
You may find that a scooter is less gay than you think. Go ride a Suzuki Burgman 650 and tell me the scooter than can very easily exceed 100MPH in comfort is gay. It has sport bike styling and handles well, There are lots of scooters other than your little Vino's and Roketas out there.

I am not sure what size you need and what type of riding you are likely to be doing but there a plenty of sporty scooters in the 125-250 ranges than are cost effective and perform well. Even a little 50 cc Kymco Agility can accelerate faster than most cars on the road.

My two-cents, let your Dad buy you a "scooter", learn to ride safely and prove you are responsible and he may just buy you that new crotch rocket.
