Thanks for watching!👍

Ugh!! Now I don't know what I want... this or MP3?? My first scooter after years of driving a car in Canada, now moved to Spain and need something for around the city.

Sense my introduction to the world of scooters, when I bought a 2006 Suzuki Burgman 400, I noticed that Vespa is the Harley Davidson of scooters. Anyway I am 66 and my balance is not what it used to be so heavy motorcycles was out. My 400 is 430 lbs wet. Now I am thinking of getting a smaller scooter in the 15cc-200cc range.

The Vespa and Piaggio line of scooters are both really well made. I can highly recommend either brand!

Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences!

In Europe we also have the medley 150 that sits between the liberty and the beverly 300 and it is very popular

There is also beverly 125/150👍😀

I replaced my stolen Vespa GTV with a used 2018 Piaggio Liberty 150S. It works great on cold and rainy days if you add a tall windscreen and use a jigsaw to cut it down to just below eye level, so that the cold air and rain flows over the top of your helmet while driving but you can see OVER the windscreen instead of through it. If money is more important than the admittedly cool Vespa style, used Liberty's can be had for a steal. I paid $1200 in Mountain View, California with ~1500 miles.

How tall would you have to be to be able to flat foot on the ground on the 150?

Yeah, I'd love to have a little Vespa 150! I wouldn't trade my Z900RS for it, but to have both would be a blast! Thanks for your support!

@@PeterLoweOne It's our pleasure to support your efforts, Peter 👍

Just based on license and insurance classes, a 125 seems like the right bike for me. Does a 125 Piaggion (can't afford a new Vespa) have ABS?

I'm not positive about the exact specs of the 125 because we only have the 150 and 50 cc here in Canada. You may have to double check with your local dealer.

I guess in the country, the extra 25cc could come in handy. In Quebec, the 2nd license and insurance class is 125cc.@@PeterLoweOne

I love the Vespa's...but for almost half the price of one, you can get a Royal Enfield 350...just can't see it.

NYPD NYC police use the Piaggio because of the larger wheels. Its better over potholes..

My 150 cc sprint is all the bike I need for 95 percent of my daily commutes. The other 5 percent of the time l take the car.

Exactly! It's such a great way to step into the motorcycling world without a massive expense. It does so much, and if you didn't have one, you'd have to work around how you're going to do certain things anyway, but if you DO have one, you add so much fun to the things you do anyway! Thanks for sharing!

@lurch789 You can never can go wrong with the Vespa. The GTS 300 can go all day on the hwy. If you are looking at the Burgman 400 then go take a look at the Piaggio BV 400 as well. The Burgmans are undoubtedly great bikes but you can't best the Italian styling of the Piaggio BV.

The Vespa will not hold a full face helmet, which sucks.

Vespa - No flat floor and small wheels. Liberty all the way...

Hi

You make it sound as if these 150 scooters should be doorways to motorcycles. Why? Scooters are scooters and motorcycles are motorcycles . The 150 Vespa and 150 liberty do 95 percent of most people’s purpose daily. That’s the reason there are tons more scooters in the world

@PeterLoweOne

For me, a scooter was a doorway to a motorcycle, and I know several other people with the same experience. Every reviewer comes with their own experiences and biases. I'm not sure if that needs to be criticized. You perceive that I view scooters as doorways to motorcycles, but I also fully agree with you that they don't have to be.

Depends on geography. In the US, scooter usage and usefulness is extremely limited so, there is more bigger/touring bikes on the road. Scooter is more of a toy constrained to dense urban areas. In Europe and Asia, scooter makes far more sense due to smaller distances to travel, lower speeds and more expensive gas.

Seat height.
