sorry folks scratch the Honda and zuma 50cc just the zuma 125

All 3 models are considered motorcycles and you must have a valid motorcycle license to legally operate them on public roads in NY.

First time Scooter buyer….?

Ok, so i've been looking at the Honda Metropolitan. The price is great, and it's under 50cc so I won't need to get my motorcycle liscence (even though I plan to). My questions are these.
1.I'm not seing a weight restriction, or at least limit.
I'm 5'10" 185. My girlfriend is about 5'6" ,5'7" and I would say 115 (at least I think). Would this be too much for the tiny motor to handle?
2. Would I be able to ride this thing on the streets, or even with a passenger?
3.Any advice for a better choice?
I
'm just trying to figure out my budget (poor credit and all),and i could afford to put away about 400 or so a month to save towards this thing.
Your help is greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
