Looking back at my post, in the first paragraph I mentioned doing a google search for 12vdc motors. That should be "DC motors" as it's most likely you'll end up using one rated for a much higher voltage, but running it on 12v.
Also: scooter motors are not the most efficient for your application. Although most are 24-36vdc, some of the 90v ones you'll find in the link I gave you would work better.

Again, good luck!
