Trying to make sense of all of the Vespa models? What's the difference between a Vespa Sprint and a Vespa Primavera? Are there differences between a 50cc Vespa and a 150cc Vespa other than the engine? Should I get a 300cc or is a 150cc enough? There are so many questions. In this video I try to answer many of them! Check out the entire line of Vespas by connecting with the amazing team at Jim Gilbert's PowerSports here: powersports.wheelsanddeals.ca...

Fantastic review!! Love the pace of the video. Packed with info and moves along nicely. Driver body weight must play into the decision making. If I weight 240, stand 6’1” would you recommend the GTS 300? I like the smaller model for around town parking and maneuvering. What say you ?

I'm 175 lbs. Height won't be an issue. Both scooters are capable of taking me and a passenger, so they can handle your weight, but you may find that the larger scooter handles it better. Having said that, the smaller bodied scooter can handle you too.

Hi Peter, great job! Greetings from Montreal Qc. I am a seasoned motorcycle rider who owned a Suzuki Intruder 1400 and Kawasaki Vulcan Voyager. Switching from a 900 pounds machine to a Vespa was fun!!! I am able to perform mechanical work on my machines so I bought a used 2007 LX150 with 7K and made some refreshments. What a gem…I am very impressed by the Vespa quality. Love to ride around town the 150cc is perfect for my needs. I still own a vintage 1975 Honda CB360T.

Ok good people let me lay it on the line for you...I'm 180 lbs 5'9 in height. I own a 2023 Vespa Sprint S 150cc. It's amazing. I teetered back and forth between the 300 and the 150 but settled for the 150 because it felt less bulky, and I felt a higher sense of confidence on it. I'm not sure where some of these comments come from, but... I've had mine up to 70-72 mph. However, the sweet spot is between 60 to 65 mph, no problem. I would never race it on the highway, but I do ride it with careful confidence. Confidence is priceless while on any the road. ( I live in St Louis, Mo.) Allow me to give you a little helpful guide if you're wondering what to get. Hands down go for 150 Sprint. It's an amazing bike with enough power even on highways. But if 50% or more of your commute is on highways, buy the 300 because you'll appreciate the extra weight during strong windy days and the extra power should you need it. Cheers!

Hey, nice video. Very informative. On the Sprint 50S; it looks like it also has a helmet hook under the seat (at the 10:19 mark), is that true? I could see inside when you removed the trunk area; it is easy to remove the battery?

The only 50cc Piaggio or Vespa scooter that I've seen without those helmet clips under the seat is the Typhoon. The Primavera, Sprint, and Liberty all have them. As far as the battery being removable. I haven't done it, but it doesn't seem complicated in any of them to me.

I own a GTS 300 and my wife also has a 300. Here's from my experience if you have a motorcycle driver's permit why would you buy a 150cc if you have the money....I rode with 150cc and 300 several times on country roads the 150cc are really struggling to go up hills compared to 300s.... The 300 is safer to get away from cars following you too closely .... Get the 300 you will be happy you did.... If you don't have a motorcycle driver's permit , ride in the city, flat streets no hills and don't want to spend much get a 50cc.....get a Honda Giorgio 50cc cheaper cost and much more reliable and much,much more dealers.

I'm a big fan of the 150cc. That would be my choice. I'll make a video explaining why in the future. The 50cc and 300cc are both great for specific users, for sure. I can see the draw to the 300cc as it can do a lot of what you're looking for, but as I said, the 150cc would be my choice.

@PeterLoweOne
@PeterLoweOne Жыл бұрын
So I haven't driven the GT200, the biggest benefit of the 300 is just that larger size... the 150 still has the compact size. In my mind a long trip would be more enjoyable on the larger frame, but I'd love the 150 for my garage!! It would have all the pep that I need for what I would want from a Vespa. I think if you are using your 200 for highway usage, you'd probably enjoy the 300 better. Moving to the 150 is still a big jump down when you think of it in percentages.

Haha! Yeah, I love style of the Primavera too. The issue is going to be that the powertrain and liquid cooling and everything involved with the 300cc is physically too large to fit into the Primavera. It would be cool to see more power added, but I just don't think there's a market for that. At some point, people want more power to do more things, and a little bit larger scooter also helps with that. Thanks for watching!!

Btw, here we also have the smallest body frame models, namely Vespa LX and S. Both LX and S have 125 cc, being the smallest engine (we dont hv the 50cc).

I am 78 years old, am 6’ and weigh 224.0 lbs. I just bought a 2007 LX with about 3,230 miles. I drive it in town and the foothills surrounding Salt Lake City. And I’ve driven it on dirt roads near the Provo River. I had a new Vespa 300cc back in 1975 and drove it on the interstate and anywhere I would have driven a car. I drove then as I do now: only in dry weather conditions. I am glad I bought the 2007! The 150cc is perfect for in town driving. Test driving the 300cc scared the beejesses out of me‼️ The new fuel injection system gives you radical power from stop to 60 mph. But, once I I become Re accustomed to riding my 150cc, I may buy a new 300cc or 150cc when I’m 79 or 80 years old. Health matters and insurance costs may tell the final story. I think that being physically fit, active and in good health are also important factors when considering the purchase of and day to day riding of any Vespa! Good luck 🍀

It depends on where you live. Here in New Brunswick, you can drive it with a regular car license if you're over 16 and if you're 14, you can do a test and get licensed for it.

Get the GTS 300 if you want convenient , fun, alternate transportation, the ability and performance to merge and keep up with the fastest city traffic in any city, also freeway capable for short trips or longer ones in a pinch. Electric scooters and motorcycles are even worse than electric cars for those that value time and money or work for a living

Actually, that's where these are strong. Overall top speed and horsepower? Not the strong point of these, but torque is a key piece to these engines.

What is the best Vespa model for a 250 lb person

I'd go with the 300. You could get a 150, but the suspension won't have as much travel with your weight, and I'd stay away from the 50cc as it will not be very quick. I'm about 175 and thats probably the max weight I'd recommend for a 50cc and even then, you need to be realistic about the performance at my weight.

Nope. Check out pictures of other motorcycles online. You'll see that it's almost counter intuitive.

Why Not mention the MSRP?
@PeterLoweOne
@PeterLoweOne Жыл бұрын
MSRP can change sometimes. These videos stay online forever. I used to run another MUCH bigger channel, and I've found it's easier to not mention it than to face the comments section if there was a change. Up to date pricing can always be found using the link in the description of this video, which will take you to Jim Gilbert's PowerSports website.

Enligten me please. Why would one want a 50cc?
@PeterLoweOne
@PeterLoweOne Жыл бұрын
Lots of reasons, but the most popular reason here is because of licensing requirements. Adults can drive the 50cc with just a car license, and kids as young as 14 can drive them instead of waiting until they turn 16.

The prices can always be found in the link in the description. I never quote prices in my videos because they can change over time, but up to date pricing can be found using that link. As far as fuel mileage, Piaggio doesn't list fuel mileage for these scooters, it can really vary based on the size of the rider and the type of riding that you do. The best place to get real world information on fuel mileage is to check with owners forums and see what various people are getting in their environments.

You should get a real Vespa mate far better quality no Chinese motor and way more valuable lol I converted my 64 GS 160 Real Vespa to electric. 72v 10kw in hub wheel motor, 520 nm of torque (45 times the top of the line Chinese Vespa clone has) 0-100kph in 2 seconds, and cost me only 2100 USD to build the conversion including the 80 ah 72v long range LiFePo4 battery that gives me 780 km's range per charge and the speed charger 10 a unit that charges from 15% to 85% in 12-24 minutes yeah anyone buying these instead of real ones is fooling themselves I'd leave the "Vespa" 500 in the dust where it belongs on my 64 Real Vespa GS lol if it has plastic on it then it is simply NOT a real VESPA

I owned a Vespa 200cc or maybe it was a 250cc not sure. A 2 stroke back in 1978 / 79. I somehow think the scooters are smaller now? The one I had came with a brake pedal on the floor. At least that is how I remember it. Are these vehicles smaller now. Less space between the seat and front? Not sure
