			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is not unusual to see men and women of all ages today commuting to their jobs with skirts and suits sporting a pair of goggles and a helmet on their gas or battery operated scooters. I was amazed at the increase in the number of commuters I would spot during my drive to and from work on the busy streets of Atlanta. Some not even letting the rainy weather force them back into their gas hogs.</p>
<p>These <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">everyday</span> people, just like you and me, have had their fill of rising fuel prices from both an ethical as well as economical point of view. In fact, despite your average scooter reaching anywhere from 75-100 miles to the gallon, some scooter go-e<span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">r&#8217;s</span> have been so fed up with the oil companies that they have elected to completely do away with stopping at the gas pumps by purchasing the new lithium battery technology powered scooters. Aside the $0 fuel cost, these scooters are also <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">environmentally</span> friendly and offer the same speeds and reliability as the typical 50cc -250cc gas powered scooters and mopeds.</p>
<p>For example, one of the newest Lithium Powered Scooter productions, the <span class="blsp-spelling-error">XM</span>-3000LI by X-<span class="blsp-spelling-error">Treme</span> Scooters, a division of Alpha Products International, produce speeds up to 60mph. They are also street legal and may or may not require license and registration depending on the state in which the rider resides. They offer a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">sleek</span>, stealth like look and feel, exhibiting more of a street bike ride and performance than your typical scooter. At the same time, there is no gear shifting involved and easy riding which is why most of your beginner riders purchase a scooter or moped to begin with. They also allow for 75 miles of travel before they need to be re-charged which is usually suitable for the typical round-trip commute.</p>
<p>Sales of scooters and dual-purpose bikes were at their highest levels in the past 20 years, showing strong interest in affordable, fuel-efficient bikes. Typical prices for these products ranged from $800-$4,000 and even with only a 2 to 3 year life span on some of the lower end models, most buyers understand that the realized savings from fuel alone will pay for their purchase after the first 3 to 6 months. So anything thereafter, is considered money back in their pockets.</p>
