Well to be honest, its a lifestyle item.. not really daily jepunis machine.. but hey its 100% made in Vietnam with weird Italian design.. (like 3v engine - why can't they put 4Valve SOHC like even Taiwanese scooter done that long time ago)..
FC is full tank 6 to 7 Litre can go up to almost 200km? but mostly 150 to 170 km already had amber light on..
Strong pickup pulls, running out of juice after 80 km/h.. struggling going to 100 km/h but the meter is accurate.. only 3 km/h different from GPS reading.. so when i reached the 110 km/h top speed (long time).. I am way ahead faster than the average had laju kebangsaan...
Maintenance.. its a premium scoot.. belting original cost you around 250 Rm.. and only last for 10k km.. roller about 80 to 100 rm to change per set.. engine oil changed ever 3k km.. using 10W-40 .. and has oil filter.. will set you back 60 Rm for ori vespa brand.. (more expensive than my harley filter)
Handling.. since I am used with the chaotic nature of riding a 1950's bike design.. I would say Vespa is much more stable.. however if you want to compare with jepunis scooter or kapchai stability.. don't.. (unless u change both shock absorber with Ohlins which set you back like buying a 2nd hand kapchai price a pair)..
Thanks for the info. Vespa doesn't event have Malaysian official website. I once heard a joke from a friend about vespa, he told me "You can always tell the different between vespa and other motorcycle convoy, because the vespa spent most of the time on the side of the road, not on it."
