At first I thought it was because I'm too fat, but apparently people who are taller and heavier than me can get by on this scooter just fine, so that's not it.

I can get one foot on and do a kick to get it rolling, in anticipation of the motor kicking in. Thing is, getting my second foot on is something I instinctively have reservations about, and if I do manage to get my second foot on the scooter starts getting wobbly. I've learned about the whole 90 degree angle trick and all that, and I noticed a slight improvement, but not long enough for me to ride this thing.

Does it have a handle to hold onto?

Is this much different then a segway? I thought these things were designed to be impossible to lose your balance?

Focus on holding the handlebar upright, that's your center of balance. Your feet are secondary to your hold on the handle. Get it going quickly enough to naturally center itself on the wheels, and the rest will take care of itself. It's really pretty simple to ride a scooter, I used to have a kick scooter when I was ~10 years old.

did you ever have a razor?


No, but in hindsight I wish I bought a Razor ecosmart metro, because it has a seat for fat people like me.

being fat didn't stop me from riding mine, just find your center of gravity and keep it over the middle of the scooter.
