Hi i desperately need one of these in my life literally for fun riding locally and with my lady as pillion. Ive ridden large sports bikes for yrs and im all a bit done with the hassle and just need a warm days fun ride. Vespa is such an iconic design or what Mini is to cars Vespa is to bikes....controversial i know but im now 50 and who cares🤣. Thanks for the great video and cheers Andrew UK😊🌈
Hailing from the Northeast U.S. here, where most people (regrettably) regard two-wheelers as little more than weekend playthings. I, on the other hand, regard my GTS as serious transportation, commuting a few days a week between central New Jersey and New York City with relative ease…and, yes, that includes a good bit of highway action, cruising between 65-75mph on a regular basis. Totally worth it, especially at this, let's say, *interesting* moment in human history, when public transportation might not be ideal for people trying their best to keep their distance from one another. I've had my GTS for the better part of five years, and I'm as happy with it as the day I rode it off the dealer's lot. I'd say you made an excellent choice.
RK rk no you need a motorcycle license in NY for anything over 150cc..The GTS is 300cc. I purchased 2020 Vespa 300 SuperTech and I needed M class to ride it.
I had the same problem. But the problem solved!! One day a mod Vespa appeared in my garage next to my BMW GS......!!! Convincing enough? Now she enjoys the Vespa too!!
Lovin’ my prima!!!!! The only thing I hate, and I mean truly despise is that pungent road/smoke smell after each ride. You always need to bring spare clothes in your trunk. Haha
I noticed you were using an open face helmet without a visor. Do the cops here give you a hard time about this? I saw some videos advising that full on visors are required for riders here.
That may well be the new HPE frame, but the engine is the Quasar engine from the previous GTS model, not an HPE engine as you state at 1:10. Easily identified by the different belt cover on the engine side.
Just subscriber sir... agree on the parking on BGC it happen to me twice... not so friendly on lower 400cc.. i felt descriminated... when i was in my 916cc super heavy.. all parkin doors open for the monster... my poor 125cc which i enjoy using in the city was always turn down... tsk tsk tsk
Wearing extremely hot full motorcycle gear is what makes it not fun, and the other option will leave you in the hospital requiring multiple surgeries and skin graphs. I would love to ride with a t-shirt no gloves, 😢
pareng deakin oo na mamahalin scooter mo! 300cc, tolll mag sisi ka kung macarnap yan HA,presyong SUV yan di maipaparking yan basta basta sa tabi TABI ,100 % iiyak ka pag labas mo sa building NINAKAW NA PALA SCOOT MO! KAMING NAKA HONDA MAXSCOOT USERS CONFIDENT kami DAHIL higit DAANG LIBO ANG USERS MAG SASAWA mga CARNAPPERS SA PIPILIIN I CARNAP, NOW NAG IISA KANG MAY GANYAN SA PILIPINAS SO BE IT!manmanan

car license works for these? I'm in NY. they get up that fast with 23 hp?

The most difficult thing with this Vespa is convincing my wife that I need one.

Buy her one too. Worked for me.
That was a decision in your life that you'll never regret... -Vespanatic right here. :)
good content James. I like your choice of vespa. Helps me in my selection process. More power!
I just bought one and I love it! I'm in Texas, so no traffic. OBTW I love your background music, excellent!
Once you own a Vespa you’ll never want to be without one. I’ll always have one in the garage
Nice to see that the two wheel training we did all those years ago has come in handy. :)

i Like Vespa Scooter 🛵 "made in Italy", and also Brompton folding bike "made in London" 🚲 CLASSIC Brands for Centuries to Forever. 👍💯%👌
came here after watching your interview on One Ph 👍
The box spoils the look blue looks cool
Got mine and love it! Liked your video. Maybe I’ll do one! I got the 2020 GTS 300 touring and love it!
My dream scoot, and i wanna grow old with you!
