NE C-Bus suburbs (Gahanna to be exact). So given that most trips here are 8++ miles and daily (since bus service is sketchy here), will a 50 cc stand up to the rigors of being a moderate-distance daily rider? I've been using an old Honda C70, but its reliability has started to taper off, and I could...

Easiest to work on.

Which small Honda scooter is the easiest to work on? Aero50, Elite, or Aero 80? I'm returning to scoots after a 20 year hiatus (former owner of a small Yamaha), and looking for an easy DIY scoot for repairs/upgrades.

Chappy Info

Your best bet is to hit the MopedArmy website (mopedarmy.org). They have links to a ton of pages on 50cc bikes of all varieties. I think mopedriders.org may have a link to a Chappy manual online as well. Good luck; Chappys are little beasts (in a good way).

Miising Title

I'm sure this is a recurring issue with 50 cc, but what's the process for finding out if an old scoot had a title, or titling it anew? How much does either process cost? I'm looking into old Elites/Aeros and many have no title, yet they have to be titled here (in Ohio) for insurance.

Parts interchangeability.

I'm looking for a 50-80 cc scoot, with an eye towards complete DIY maintenance, and was wondering what kind of parts interchangeability there is between different Honda models? Can you use Spree engine parts with Aeros or Elites? What about swapping between the latter 2 models?
