That is a shame. The dealships where I am have only the 125's or less. They don't have the larger CC machines. I'm a big kid to nothing less than 300 for me. I'd also like to go on longer rides with lots of hills. They'll "order" one for you but it'll be 6 to 8 at best for delievery. Not a good plan. The dealerships are also dealerships for multple brand names so they only have a few of each brand for sale in the store. Bummer.

I've had motorcycles since I was 15. Currently languishing in my garage is a 1992 BMW R100GS, the latest of three of those models I've owned. I bought my son a cherry 2008 Vespa 150 for school. I've been on it more than he has. I live in San Francisco, one mile from work. The BMW was just too much for such a short drive. It never got past 2nd gear. For short commutes on city streets, the Vespa gets my vote. Like driving around on a bar stool...with storage for my daily things. Best of all, for some reason, scooters can park right on the sidewalk with bicycles in my locality. No parking tickets! At least for this particular use, the Vespa is a perfect fit. One glaring omission with several scooters on this list is the total lack of or anemic storage. If you commute, you need a place to put your stuff. On Thursdays I buy donuts for work. Putting them in a backpack? Helmet, extra jackets, rain jacket? The weather here is different from one minute to the next. You have to carry that stuff with you. Anyone serious about commuting needs storage on the vehicle. They are missing out on a large segment of buyers by making these so...masculine...they look like war machines. I expect machine guns to pop out with the push of a button. Just a thought, but where would your wife put her purse if she had one of these battle mech scooters? The styling is a matter of taste and not trying to knock anyone who gets into this angular look, but to my eye, the Vespa has class. All metal frame and body makes it very smooth over SF potholes and rail tracks. The light weight plastic scooters don't get my vote for daily commuting over rough roads. Stay safe out there!

Wow I love this

That upgraded Piaggio is so adorbs! The front with those headlights, look like Mothra😂 I’m not into ebikes or scooters..I just thought it would be neat to get a scooter and why not electric since that’s being shoved down our throats. Maybe a nice cheap way to commute to work-although still worried about being squished by cars.lol The price of these things tho is nuts-it’s like nearly as much as an economy electric car! Dang!

I’ve owned and loved my Xmax 300 for 5 years now!

Ive heard some people say the Aprilia SR GT200 is not comfortable for carrying passengers. Has anyone got experience with this? Also I am in Thailand and concerned about how easy it will be to get serviced and repaired?

This is amazing

Aprilia has a hit in their hands, wooow just stunning

SYM or Vespa? Nearest dealer is 150 miles from me. I just returned from three weeks of scooting on a rental in Greece and can’t replace my 13 year old scooters with anything.
