Wow. Looks great. Any news on price yet? It'll be cool to see where this one goes.

Ya but it doesn't stink like 2 stroke so what fun will that be

Put an ounce or two of Castrol R in the tank and it will smell just fine :-)

Ahhh 2 stroke smoke … a scooterist aphrodisiac

I totally get that the vintage scooter look is second to none - however this crappy plastic chinese knock off is an absolute sin. There will never be anything quite as beautiful as a classic Vespa (except a classic Lammy) - however all this does is cheapen everything wonderful about those classic machines and everything they stand for.

I hate this so much.

Hmmmm... whatever excitement this has mustered, like news of a new Lambretta, the news is almost always premature.

Seems Piaggio has taken action of some sort and we're likely to never see this bike a part from pictures or a m/c show.

BTW did you hear about the new Lambretta? Well, there you go.
