This thing is perfect for getting around town. It's very quick from stop lights, and I get more compliments everytime I bring it out. As I write this, gas is hovering around $4.00 a gallon and it really hurts to fill up my Land Rover. So at 60-65 miles a gallon, it makes a lot of practical sense as well.... read more

I have had more motorcycles than Castro's had guns... ranging from British to Harley... I have always had a keen interest in scooters and owned Lambretta and Vespas when two strokes ruled. This 200 GT is an amazing vehicle - with a medium windscreen it is rain friendly and basically a year-round companion. The performance is more than adequate - I have ridden the new 300 GT, which has more power punch from 0 to 50mph, but not an necessary ingredent for more enjoyment... Although my GT 200 carries me and my wife easily - the 300 would be an advantage and recommended for two up riding. I rode my 200 from Hollidaysburg to State College on I -99 / no trouble staying in the 65 to 70 mph zone - The handling above these speeds is not scooter territory - motorcycles rule in the over 50 mph department.

Three months ago I wandered into a Vespa dealer to kill some time. Two weeks ago I took delivery of a GTV 250ie and haven't looked back except to upgrade a few components. I've never owned a motorcycle before. The handling is superb and very forgivable; it has tons of power and is extremely comfortable. I was able to acquire a sport seat in the same matching leather. This allowed me to sit back three inches and create a more comfortable riding position. I kept the two piece saddle, should I ever wish to return the bike to its more traditional style. It is a real show stopper. Thanks Vespa.

I have 780 miles on my new Vespa 250ie purchased about six weeks ago. It performs as expected, no mechanical problems, and the ride is very comfortable. Scooter is very stable at all speeds and is very easy to handle and maneuver. I recently passed my motorcycle drivers test in S.C. and had no problems with using the Vespa for this. Vespa is a joy to ride and very problem free.

The 2007 GTS 250 IE is very comfortable and stable. It has fantastic acceleration in the 0 to 45 range but then as to be expected flattens out between 45 and 80 mph. The one cylinder electronic injected engine is very smooth. This coupled with the excellent front and rear suspension makes for an outstanding ride. I prefer this vehicle to my previous BMW K75 because of its agility. It is nice to get away from the ponderous shifter. The CVT responds very quickly. On my first two tanks of gas, I have averaged about 75 mpg. I live in a hilly area (8 percent grades all around me) and the Vespa has no difficulty climbing with plenty of power to spare. I highly recommend this magnificent machine.

It's also a real looker -- I get lots of stares and accolades. But the best part is the power -- I feel as comfortable riding on major highways and keeping up with the traffic as on winding country roads.

Bought the bike in May this year and have almost 5,000 miles on it. This has really been a great experience. Been riding since 1972 (only 2 years without a bike) and I feel like a kid getting his first ride again. This bike is solid with plenty of power. I haven't detected any hesitation in the power band and the bike has pulled steadily to 80 mph. I shut her down after that; it is only a 250 single, but you wouldn't know it. The power and cruising ability has really made me rethink the whole "more CCs is betterthing. The bike feels stable at all speeds. My only negative is that after a couple of days of riding my butt gets a little sore. Not sure if this is due to the GTS seat or my aging backside; I suspect the latter. All in all this has been a great transition for a hard-core motorcyclist. I have a 98 Triumph Thunderbird somewhere in the garage I haven't ridden in a couple of months, because after riding the Vespa, shifting gears isn't what I want to do.
