    I bought one of these and have completed 4000 fun filled miles. This style is iconic and it handles and rides really well. Economy is quite good but it performs very well and will do 70mph without a problem. Very fast away from the lights and I really recommend anyone to get one of these 250 GTS.

    I've had this scoot for four months and I really love it. I've had fitted the small flyscreen that helps at speed. It's so easy to ride, very forgiving and it's so much fun. Most of the time I have my daughter on the back and we can still do good speeds. Quite expensive to buy but great fun and so economical, it's worth it! Go get one! Rosso Red - the only colour to have!!

    I have been considering the 300 for so long, that I really just over looked the 250. But all I have read is that the 300 is the same size engine as the 250, it's just been bored out to give it that extra torque at lower speeds, but the top out speed is actually about the same as a 250.
    I currently ride a Vespa 150ie LX. it's great for around town, but it's not freeway legal. I want something with power for this brown boy from California. They're a blast to ride.

    This model will actually do 70mph on the freeway without a problem. Better safe than sorry.

    I transitioned from VESPINO to Vespa because it had gear shifter and manual clutch. When did that go away?

    Meine Vespa seit 2008. Bis heute 20'000 km ohne Pannen und grössere Reparaturen. Der Roller fährt häufig in der Garage unseres Wohnmobils mit um dort die kleineren und grösseren Reisen mit uns zu unternehmen.

    This is my ride and I love it. Makes going to work worth it. I've had "Princess Vespa" for over 4 yrs. with minimal problems.

    Howdydoodie you may have a point, but I think people have negative opinions of scooters or the name itself carries with it a negative image. Anything that can reach 70 mph or better is worthy to ride. It's bound to be fun and it's a 250. The new ninja 250 is a neat bike yet no-one calls that a scooter.

    I want one. And I think I'm going to sell my FZ6 and buy one. I'm back to commuting to school and these things are so much fun to ride! I'll get another motorcycle after graduation, likely an adventure touring bike of some kind :)

    very nice,but if you get a flat back tyre it is a nightmare to change! you have to take the exhaust off!

    I own this one and it does 4l/100km which is 60mpg riding in the city (it's more like 3l/100km on highway - 75mpg)

    I'm certainly looking to buy one to save money. My commutes are long and 27 mpg ain't cutting it.

    I had to chuckle at your comment,. being a real man that you are,. If you have 30- 40 -50 k for a motorcycle,. knock yourself out,. your a real man,. Put on your leather chaps and ride,.This is more about affordable transportation, and affordable maintenance ie. gas,. Hey ride your harley,. but dont knock people that are trying to save you and your childrens future. Harleys are nice, but the green in my pocket is nicer

    It's not a P series. Dosnt look or sound like a real Vespa. And if you have to take the exhaust off to change the back tyre that's fucked !

  • @dick117
    @dick117 13 років тому

    The mileage and price for these Vespas doesn't seem so hot. I think I'd rather just throw that extra cash into upgrading to a prius/insight/leaf etc. I think the lost 5mpg would be worth the safety as well.

    • @jesusmejia3910
      @jesusmejia3910 2 роки тому +1

      You think roads care what kind of bike you're riding if you fall off at 70 mph?
      Common sense isn't so common anymore 🙄

    Great scooter, lousy review. Poor language skills and monotone, Vespa didn't do themselves any favor letting this guy review their bike.
