    Hey Robot,
    I don’t own a Vespa - I ride a Beta Alp 200, most of the time somehow not sitting… but as I’m getting older that kind of riding is a little uncomfortable for longer riding on streets. So, searching for a ride with style and ease I found your fantastic channel and I just want to tell you, I like it very much!
    Thank you for sharing your dedication!
    Best regards
    Dani

    I bought a 2007 GTV 250, the odd dent and a few scratches, being a spraypainter by trade, I was going to fix the body, then I thought no, I will ride it as is, not bad mechanically and needs a new leather seat cover, but…. I have an Lx150 which my daughter wants, I said she can buy it off me! And an Lx50 which is good as anyone with a car license can ride it, love them

    I have one just like this, except in better condition :-). Very reliable. Only real thingie are the rear shocks. Way too jumpie. Had to replace these. I actually like it more then the more modern GTS 300’s. Not sure but it feels as if the wheelbase of the 250 is slightly larger.

    I have the opportunity to pick up a used 250 I.E for a fair price from someone I know. After going to the dealership yesterday and getting a quote for a brand new 300 I'm really pondering saving money and going for the 250. I'd love to have a 300 but the price difference is so huge and I still have a few motorcycles in the garage I need to sell.

  • @tpagel2121
    @tpagel2121 ปีที่แล้ว

    the rear end when the huge dent and scrapes are, is that fairly simple to take off? it would be a lot easier for the body shop if just that piece is sent and the dent can be pounded out. if the engine needs to come off in order to remove the whole rear cover, then it wouldnt be worth while. i just bought one today and am debating how to fix the rear with the same dent location.

    I currently own a 2003 piaggio vespa et2 50 with 321 original miles and enjoy it very much so I’ve been watching your videos on them learning new tricks and what not,I actually did an oil change with ams oil 2 stroke racing oil and it’s been running beautiful since then and thanks to your company I bought a left rear turn signal for it because owner previously broke it before I bought it,videos of it are on my channel
