Looking at buying one? I'd guess probably around 24 inches (could even be a bit less). Nice little scooter, from the little I've seen. Great for driving around town with the prerequisite milk crate on back, or on some kind of rack mounted on the back.

not a bad choice. Not a bad choice at all. New enough to have electronic ignition, enough power to get you there and not so damn heavy that taking the corner a little wide will make you poop your pants. There's a reason 750's were so popular for so long, and are reasonably popular today (the trend has been getting larger, although I'm not sure why, a modern 750 is pushing 70 Hp in the cruiser version and most cruisers have detuned crotch rocket motors anyway in this size).

by the way, get a manual for it, just in case.
