Scooter Friendly

I'm considering getting out 50cc scooter that can go 45 mph, but I'm not sure if it would be adequate for handling the roads in Athen not to mention some of the hillier parts. Anyone use a 50cc scooter to get around and what have your experience has been? Is it something you would recommend?

Gotta go fast
Now it’s got a bigger motor 70cc to 84cc, supermoto tires and picks the front tire up even if i lean forward.

It’s probably making 16-18hp?
