Primavera all the way. Smooth ride and you feel the heritage every time you set off. Worth the extra £££'s. Excellent dealer support too. Love the fair reviews here.

That super cub’s 188miles/gallon and bigger wheels makes it my choice of these bikes 👌🏾

I am salivating here in the USA. You guys have so much more to choose from than we do. Vespa is my favorite, but the Royal Alloy in two-tone lemon yellow and white was a head turner for me.

Does seem like the scooter market isn't huge in the US from the comments we get, you don't seem to have much in the way of available models.
@markkulyas2418 Жыл бұрын
So I'm guessing from your comment Vespa and Honda are probably the only models available for us USA people?

I wish the Yamaha 125 Filano was offered in the USA. I'm in Thailand part time, the land of scooters and under bones.

Hello from the States. I have a Primavera 150cc 75th Anniversary Edition and I like the styling way more than the Sprint. Something about that boxy headlight just turns me off as well. Just my opinion! Cheers! :)

I'm 72 now. In my teens and early 20s I had a vespa for transport and work. Great little scooter. My mates had Lambrettas. The Vespa just stopped one day....no reason. It was the exhaust choked up with 2 stroke gunge. But after a new exhaust box it was good again. As a fun bike for town and shops I now have the Honda Super Cub. Had it a year now, great little bike but we will be parting company soon for a Lambretta 300. The seat on the cub is best suiited to someone 5foot6 to 5 9. I'm 5 10 and after 30mins find the seating uncomfortable. Also the gear shifting can be tricky. Fuel economy though is great. Having sat on the 125 Lambretta in the shop, seating, to me anyway, seems perfect, much better than my honda, fingers crossed.

Hi Not sure how and where you got your prices from, but in the UK, The Royal Alloy 300 TG Sc Lc are approximately £5200 + otr. I should know because I've just parted with ££££ to own one. 😆

When doing a review I think you should mention the service intervals. A very important consideration when buying a scooter. For example it is my understanding that the Sym Fiddle 125 requires an oil change every 1000Klms (600 miles) which is something that would deter me from buying one.

@robertarthur37112 жыл бұрын
I’ve looked in detail at most of these at the dealerships, but not ridden any of them, however the royal alloy is the best built by far and the best looking and it’s not plastic, the Vespas are really plasticky and cheap finish and expensive, The royal alloy TG300 true price is a whopping £5485.00 on the road but it looks expensive, the RA depreciation is minimal compared to Vespa.

U.K. gets the 125cc in place of the 150cc. Our licensing laws allow us to ride a 125 with a one day training course, and not a full test.

My newest scooter is the 2021 Primavera 150, but I am central USA, and haven’t had this ride long enough to get 130 miles yet, too much winter and now too much cold and rain. Here a Vespa/Piaggio will outlast most other scooter brands on the market and are more owner friendly when it comes to simple maintenance like oil changes, air filter changing and such.

The Super Cub is not a scooter. Its a motorcycle that has the looks of a scooter. That being said, it along with the Vespa are the only vehicles worth purchasing.
