If you are not using it over the winter it will be quite happy to sit in your garage or on your driveway. However, when the time comes when you want to store away your Maddog it wonвЂ™t require that much space. On board storage is a weakness of the Maddog, there is nowhere to store items. Part replacements for body parts and panels can be pricey however compared to the standard market rate so youвЂ™ll need to be careful not to ding the main frame on your travels. However, when compared to other 150cc scooters in its price range, there are few other scooters which offer its unique styling and cool factor.

Pricing wise, the Ice Bear Maddog is not the cheapest chinese scooter out there.

ItвЂ™s 1.6 gallon fuel tank will give the average rider between 90-100 MPG which is incredible and enables huge range on a very small fuel budget. MPG wise, the Ice Bear redeems itself for not inspiring maximum confidence in its reliability. Build quality has always been the achilles heel of chinese scooters and the Ice Bear Maddog has a tendency to experience some wiring issues and the headlight bulbs are prone to failing. However, reliability is not always 100% guaranteed with Ice Bear motor scooters. Dimensions / CapacitiesД .8L, 10w40 aircooled engine oil (non-synthetic) On the hand it makes for a good commuting vehicle with decent MPG figures and ease for parking and use. Overall, the Ice Bear Maddog is a mixed bag when it comes to practicality. If youвЂ™re not planning to ride your scooter all year round, where are you going to store it? Is it practical to store it in your garage or is it too big/long. Storage is perhaps a less obvious factor but it is also something worth considering. If a scooter is going to require extra work to maintain and run daily, this needs to be taken into account too. We need to take into account what a scooter has to offer and how much is the asking price. Pricing plays a huge factor in buying a motor scooter. No scooter is bulletproof and infallible, although that would be pretty cool. It is also nice to know just how easy it is to repair a scooter when things do go wrong. If you are splashing out on an expensive vehicle you need to also have the peace of mind that it will not let you down when you least expect it. It is well known that the MPG of gas scooters is one of their greatest selling points, and so I always consider how a scooter or moped compares in terms of the distance it can travel without filling up. We need to think about MPG, reliability, pricing and storage when we consider the practicality of any vehicle and motor scooters are no different. We all seek to some degree a balance between performance thrills and practicality and so it is an important factor when reviewing a motor scooter or moped. No one wants a motor scooter that cannot get them from A-B or is a nightmare to live with.
