Our friends over at Motorcycle Classics have a great scoop for us by letting us know The California Scooter Company is bringing back the Mustang motorcycle in three different flavors – The Classic, The Babydoll and The Greaser. When you combine 12 inch wheels, a 150cc 4 stroke engine and a curb weight of less than 250 pounds you can bet these are two scoops of fun. Check them out at Motorcycle Classics.

Very nice. The only change I'd want to make is moving the pegs back to a standard riding position.
The craziest part is that in California these would be freeway legal!

Its not often that I've got "The Scoop" on scooters but an episode of American Pickers is coming up with a sweet find on a passenger vespa.

Hard to understand why they have "scooters" in the business name when these are clearly motorcycles.

"scooters" = 'Oldschoolspeak' for motorcycles; even HDs were called scooters by some

I like to have one of these and a Genuine "Black Jack" to complete the theme. Yes there is some blurring of the lines between "motorcycle" and "motorscooter". I have seen other scooters that were not "step thru" designs. There are older Vespas with fuel tanks in the traditional "motorcycle" fashion.
Still, this bike has a 150cc engine more in line with a scooter, yes?
