After 3 months and 1000 miles, I am very satisfied with my Lance Milan 150. So far so good. I am a novice when it comes to scooters, so I have no past experience to use as a benchmark.
I normally drive paved roads with speeds between 30 and 45 MPH. I filled up over the weekend after going 210 miles. I pumped 1.91 gallons of premium gasoline. That - my friends - is over 100 MPG

I purchased from ScooterNitro in Missouri. I Thought their C/S knowledge very poor but they had the best price I found on the WWW. They tried to bs me on several issues . I am hoping to find a good mechanic for knowledge of the scooter. I paid extra to have the scooter totally checked out and assembled (with the exception of the mirrors and the rear mount(?))

I have had it past 55 MPH just one time and brought it back down to 45. I think it is not too stable at the rear wheel. I packed a 40lb sack salt on the rear and suddenly the scooter was hard to steer and control.

Thumbs up Lance Milan Review

I got my Lance Milan 150 a couple of months ago. I'm new to scooters, but I think it's a great scooter at a great value. I'm noticing that Lance Powersports online is showing more and more dealerships across the country map they have posted. I got mine online, and it came delivered to my doorstep, in perfect condition. I just had to take the metal cage off and install the rear view mirrors and back trunk, which was no problem. It comes with about 4 miles on the odometer because they connect the battery for you, test lights and test ride it and deliver it with a checklist -- I was impressed. I highly recommend it for value and style, power and handling. I like the big lights and indicators for safety. I have about 200 miles on it so far, and got over 80 mpg. You need to break it in at low speeds, but it looks like its got plenty of power (and is spec'd) to go 55mph. You can get more power if you want to, but to commute to and from work, on residential roads, it's perfect for me -- I'm expecting an average of travel up to 40mph tops. I love riding this scooter, and highly recommend it overall. I've been surprised at all the great comments I've gotten on it.

I got my Milan in April from e-bay. The warranty is non-existant. The lower mounting ear on the exhost was broken the first week. Then, athou I have been checkig bolts and nuts, I lost the exhost to header nuts. (Everithing is metric) After two orders of exhost gaskets I stil don't have the right one. My engine has 30 mm recess and all the gaskets sold for the engine are 32.7 mm. I ended up reaming out the recess. so I can use the 32,7 mm parts. The hot gases melted the lower engine shrouds that I could not get for several months. I lost the rear axel nut - it supposed to be clinched. The new nut is holding for three month now. The under seat compartment is crecking next to the bolts. The engine is so hot that the valve cover o-ring melts and oil is leaking. I installed 110 jet instead the 108 since the spark plug was white because of the lean mixture. (Yes, the valve clearances ar set to 0.05 mm.) The rubber part of the intake elbow cracked because there is too much freedom to move the entire carburetor-intake assembly. I tied the intake to the frame with tie-wraps. The scooter cannot do more than 53 mph unless I lay down on it. But, it looks great!

Smile Ray from Arnold, MO

I bought a Milan Lance 150cc scooter in May 2008 from a dealer in Fenton, MO - midwestpocketbikes.com - and I enjoy riding it. I have almost 2,000 miles on it and have done all the oil changes at the appropriate time. The only problem I had was the frame that holds the bolts for the muffler broke. I took it back to the dealership and he welded the units on and said I should never have a problem with those again. He did not charge me anything. I would like to get a 250cc or larger but I am enjoying mine and if I don't sell it I will still be happy.
