Change oil before winter storage with very low miles on oil?

The oil is still perfectly good. Just make sure your last seasonal ride is a long one to get the oil fully heated, and to get the fuel stabilizer in your fuel to get fully circulated. Avoid any in storage start ups.
 
Good points. What about fogging the cylinder? I do this with my other single cylinder lawn equipment.

Don't change the oil. The oils will be perfectly fine.
Just make sure you winterize the scooter the right way, which doesn't take much.
1. Plug the exhaust or wrap it up in a plastic bag with some rubber band around.
2. Remove the filter and plug the carburetor, if it has any or plug the inlet of the filter box.
3. Pour a bit of oil in the cylinder through the spark plug hole, put the plug back and kick it a couple of times with the spark plug wire disconnected.
4. If you have chance during the winter, start up the bike once a month and let it run for a 5-10 minutes.
