    Any pics of off road scooters? Are there any manufacturer ones? Are there any that people have 'converted'? Interested in original auto transmission scooters (of larger engines preferably as I have a 'full' licence here in the UK) that have been converted to off-road in some way.

    well there are many pics around, a natural dual purpose scooter for me wold be the Yamaha zuma and the honda rokus, they are nice,

    unless you want to go like 30 feet in the air or 100 mph they will work, it all depends on your definition of off road.

    just thinking of tyres really and a bit of extra travel. Not jumping.

    plenty of examples of zumas (BWS in uk) and ruckuses (zoomers in uk) kitted out with longer travel and chunky tyres. check the model specific forums.

    Mine. Not really much of an offroad machine, but it's fun just the same.

    Here's a pic of a Zuma that I found online somewhere. It looks to be more serious in the off road dept.

    I like the heavy bracing in the middle, guess it keeps it from folding up on the long jumps. :D
