*Update March 2, 2010: The XG-550, our most popular and toughest built gas standup scooter, has sold out. The manufacturer plans to restock the XG-550 and the XG-505 in late April of 2010.

**If you want or need a gas standup scooter now, fortunately, our popular all chrome XG-499 gas scooter is still available -- although stock is limited. Like the XG-550, the XG-499 is powered by a strong 50cc 2-stroke engine. Because of its lighter weight, the XG-499 is a particular good fit for our younger customers although, with a riding capacity of 300 lbs, it can still easily carry almost any adult. We recommend you order our XG-499 gas scooter before they too are gone!

The FAST Model XG-550 is the toughest gas scooter on the market today with many high-end features such as dual shocks in front, electric start, vented disk breaks, etc. High tension steel frame and wide Aluminum Billet deck. Sharp & very fast.

When customers first see the XG-550, they frequently remark about how substantial and well-built it is and how it is larger than it looks in its pictures. In fact, this scooter is large enough and tough enough to carry a full-sized adult man and yet also suitable for teenagers. And an extremely heavy-duty hinge at the bottom of the handlebar post allows the XG-550 to be folded flat for an easy carry and to fit in small spaces.

The XG-550 is quite simply the best and most full featured gas stand-up scooter we can offer you. The XG-550 comes standard with a EPA certified gasoline 50cc 2 stroke engine that has a battery-powered electric start - starts at the touch of a button! The XG-550 has all of the same features as it's little brother the XG-505 but the XG-550 has many upgraded features you will not find on the XG-505.

The features of this fast gas scooter include an Aluminum Billet deck and 10" air filled tough tires, (this is the ONLY scooter of this type available with 10" tires, all others are 8" and smaller). This tough gas scooter also comes with a dual shock front suspension system. While riding the XG-550, you will notice it features the widest deck of all of our scooters we offer. It also features aluminum Mag wheels, both front and rear vented disk brakes and billet racing handle bars.

The XG-550 cannot be broken. The frame is made of high tension steel; the deck is made of high grade Billet Aluminum. These 2 features alone make this the toughest gas powered scooter on the market today. And don't forget that this unit is electric starting and the battery is included. The scooter battery is charged by magneto while riding and it comes with an external battery charger so you can plug the scooter in while it is not in use. Of course there is a pull starter should you ever need it.

This scooter is the highest quality gas powered stand-up scooter that we offer & this model offers the above features that the XG-505 does not. The build of this scooter is very heavy duty and the quality is impressive. The price is just a few dollars more but you will get what you pay for when you purchase this model. The XG-550 has NO stickers on the deck; the X-Treme flames logo is engraved by machining right into the Aluminum plate.

One word sums it up for this model and that is SHARP!
