Thanks for responses guys, Honda Ruckus is nice but kinda pricey. There's a cheaper one called Honda Metropolitan, but still about $2k for everything.

For 50cc scooter, is it true that we don't need a motorbike license?

Haha, yeah I would love to, but not much budget for this. And I'm lazy to actually go to DMV and apply a motorbike license.
