I’m visiting Italy and floored by the number of mopeds. Found the same thing in Vietnam. Having spent time in New York, Chicago, St Louis, Seattle, Miami and lots in Orlando, I’ve never seen anything like this in the USA. Is there a cultural reason or economic reason the USA prefers motorcycles over mopeds?

Chicago has an excellent scooter scene – you are talking about scooters, right, not mopeds? Scooters don’t look like a motorized bike. You step through and sit down. If you’re talking about mopeds, there are moped armies all over the country. But the fact is, to ride a vintage scooter means to know how to work on them and that’s a barrier to entry for a lot of people who like to keep riding, so there are a lot more modern scooters out there than vintage anymore.
