We waited a long time for this and boy was it worth it. What a collection man. I always wanted a Gilera Runner 180cc, almost bought one, then bought a PGO G-MAX 125, which was a cool wee scooter, think it is branded as Generic in the States. Wanted a Vespa Rally 200 after reading Peter Moores "Vroom with a view". I remember those Dymo tape dispensers well, used them at our work place back in the day, they even brought out an electric version. Thanks for the tour, so interesting. :))

I just got the runner 180 2 stroke version 10 days ago and it is so good very light and very fast, mine is all original 98 model with the drum brake back and the funny thing is the drum brakes even stronger than the disc in the front! I highly recommend it!

Great garage, Robot. You're absolutely right about the skill required for off-road biking. I've ridden street bikes and vintage Vespa's for the last 10 years and finally decided to give off-road a go. So much more involved than street, 3D is a very good way go describe it. I had a dual sport bike which I found too slow and heavy so got rid of it. Street bikes are more my thing, I'll never get rid of my smallframe Vespa and can't justify a 3 bike garage whilst I dont actually have a garage. One day I'll add a dedicated dirt bike to it.

Hey Robot, cool collection. I own a bunch of motorcycles and a couple of vintage Vespa's. I wanted to pick your brain on a solution for a Kymco Super 9 I am trying to get running. Trouble is mostly in the electronic choke (I think). Wanted to see if you had any good ideas for a manual choke that would work for a carb replacement that has liquid cooling running through the carb. The scooter has less than a few thousand miles and really in good shape save for the carb issue.

Nice one Robot! I think it's great you finally posted your personal collection of bikes and why you chose them. We often wonder what two wheeled tragic's like yourself love to ride and why. I can relate with all those bikes from the ridiculous Gilera 2 screamer, Two wheeled "Jeeps" (dirt bikes) classic Vespas and finally pragmatic BV. Great vid :) Do you own a four wheeled vehicle?

Ahhhh the Runner! Is that a FXR or a SP 180 Excellent 2 stroke machine that was banned from the Europe market due to not good brakes the scooter was so fast that the brakes just couldn’t stop it. SP was struggling to stop but FXR had a drum on the back instead of the disc brake imaging the brake time to stop the FXR on that Scooter haha. They sell now for big money in Europe as they are hard to come by and nothing like that was made afterwards. They had a 4 stroke 180 it was called VXR180. Good old memories :)

As being an experienced guy....Could you tell me. Are Honda (2 wheeler scooter) engines better than Vespa piagio ones? Especially considering current production. Thanks
@darcychu96523 жыл бұрын
Definitely! Honda engines are better made due to Japanese "focused" craftsmanship. Vespa engines are not bad, but over-engineering thus cause minor troubles while being expensive to repair. Just like Ferrari versus Honda Accord. You would not count on Ferrari for daily commuting and errands. A simple fact, The CVT driving belts on Vespas are supposed to be changed every 7500 miles(= 12000 kilometers) while even the CVT belts on my Kymco scooters are deemed to be changed every 20,000 kilometers (= 12500 miles). Actually, I rode over 30000 kilometers to have my CVT belt snapped while repairing is readily available everywhere locally at US$ 29 for both parts snd labor. It would cost at least US$ 72 to replace CVT belts on a Vespa locally. Vespa parts are not that easily available in Taiwan even though adjacent to Vietnam, a major manufacturing site of Vespa scooters in the world.
@darcychu96523 жыл бұрын
My Kymco scooter has reliable engine as good as Honda's thou not that delicate in sound. Mine is 1993 year model bought "used" in 1998 for daily commuting without much care. Taiwan is a densely populated island with 20 million scooters/bikes ridden by 23 million people. A garage is a luxurious item for local people. So most scooters/bikes are parked on roadside with locks on newly bought ones. So scooters are regarded as work horses in Taiwan. I hardly encountered engine trouble on my Kymco scooter while regarding current SYM scooters to have better engines due to local competition.
