Great video. I’ve put well over 100,000kms on my Harley and recently bought a 2023 Vespa GTS300 Super Sport and it’s a hoot! I wish I’d got one a lot earlier. At the moment they’re sharing space in the garage, but it’s the Vespa that’s getting all the ride time. It’s a very nimble, quick, comfortable and safe (ABS & traction control) machine and a lotta fun to ride.
That was pretty much our conclusion also when we reviewed a 2022 GTS300, wonderful bike that was a heap of fun. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video.
Great 👍 I ride both a Vespa and a Honda MC. If I'm on the Honda, all MC riders greet. But the scooter riders don't greet back. If I'm on the Vespa and greet, nobody greet back... not even other Vespa riders.
@@mikaelpettersson2389 vespa riders don't consider themselves riders probably😀 it is just a quality stylish commute that goes around cars and doesn't need a parking, for most, i would imagine. I want to buy it bcs GTS is more for my size, on current scooter i look like a giant😀 and i also like the sound with aftermarket exhaust and the looks of course! On the other hand i do about 100km a year (to the beach and bakery mostly), so not exactly worth it probably.😀 I live in Portoroz, Slovenia, if anyone was ever here maybe, we had some big "Vespa meetings" here in the past.😀
@@mikaelpettersson2389 I don't like the incessant self pats on the back the Vespa folks do especially the messages from the company. IMHO it's just about more sales. All this inclusion and exclusion is ridiculous. Sense of community sounds like farts lol 😂
I’d love to add one to my garage also, not sure I’ve got the room and almost certain my partner would kick me out there to live if I bought another bike
That video put a smile on my face! :) I had a vespa 150cc 2015 at the same time I had my Harley Davidson Low Rider. Guess which bike got ridden most? hahaha. This is a certainty I have in life: One day will get another Vespa and this time a 300cc. Owned a Honda scooter 300cc but it wasn't as fun as the Vespa.
If there’s one thing I love about group riding with Vespas no one is trying to prove they have a bigger “one” than you. Everyone is welcoming and friendly and can’t wait to share stories and talk to each other and become friends.
Never in the history of Western civilization has anyone walked out to their garage, saw a Vespa, and frowned.
Lol, that is the most accurate statement I’ve ever heard. Nice one.
Maybe two😊
I'm a grumpy fecker and this applies to even me.
That looks like a lot of fun. You meet the nicest people on a ... Vespa 👍🇦🇺
You got that right!
Honda, still...

Same here. My Vespa gets ridden more often but my hog gets more mileage!
100% agree riding is like mediation! It gets me out of my head and away from other responsibilities. Helps me every time.
Spot on
Riding is riding. I love the smile I get from scooter riders when I give them a wave or a nod from my Harley 😎👊🏻
Keep nodding Big Bert. Agree doesn’t matter what you are on, riding is riding.

The racing sixties is such a good colour scheme
It sure is, probably our favourite
Nice one Ross, gotta love a cute Vespa. I love that there’s a bike for everyone and for every need, including social. Great footage too. Well done All
Thanks Iggy, I’d love a Vespa in the garage, so much fun.
I am confident that there will be an Italian scooter in my garage next year.
Hahahaha. Wog. 😂
@@hachewie 💯🤌😝😅

I lllooovvveee all the Wollongong footage!! Much love from a 'Vesparado'
Glad you liked it.

Glad you enjoyed it! Those 300cc Vespas are a world of fun. We are hoping to get the new Classic 300 for review very soon.
Love this video. It's getting my mind thinking....
Enough thinking, get out and get one. Some great new colours in the new range.
If there’s one thing I love about group riding with Vespas no one is trying to prove they have a bigger “one” than you. Everyone is welcoming and friendly and can’t wait to share stories and talk to each other and become friends.
100%
Very nice model, the Racing sixties!
It certainly is. Thanks for watching.
I've grown up among bike clubs..but l absolutely Love scooters..especially Vespa..second preference..Lambretta!❤🤝
I have a mate with an old Lambretta, stunning. Thanks for watching
I know more then a few folk that got vespas and sold their motorcycle and never looked back.
Don't think will ever completely swap my bikes for a Vespa...but I know I will own one day, so much fund to ride.
Been riding my GTS 300 since new in 2011. ❤
Nice one, how many kms on it now?
Love my Vespa GTS300 Supertech 2023 and so happy with it 🎉🎉🥰🥰
They are just so cool we are hoping to get the 2023 GTS300 Classic for review soon
Cool video, txs. It looks like you have fitted larger rims & tyres than standard? If so, why? Have a great day!
Pretty sure they are standard
I’m in the process of buying a Vespa primavera 125 touring as my first bike
That’s great, I haven’t ridden the Primavera 125 myself, but have seen them about and they look great. Enjoy and stay safe.
I've bought and sold a lot of motorcycles, but I'll keep riding my 2007 Vespa GTV until the wheels fall off.
I don’t know what it is about Vespas but they just make me smile
@@BikerTorque I've never had any troubles that a ride on the Vespa didn't make fade away
Yes! 100% 💙👍😊👍
Thanks
The great thing about the Vespa gts 300 is, that a child could handle it with ease without any training whatsoever. 😊
And even better, if you do have experience it handles even better.
I want a VESPA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’d love one in the garage also
I have ridden Vespas over 100,000 miles in New Jersey.
I have never tried a scooter, but I’d love to try one.
You should!
Gotta do it👍🏾
Chao 😂 Like Eddy Izard ❤
And ciao to you also
Want the new GTV in the sand color
Shall have to check out that colour
Why are bikes getting bigger all the time? Vespas used to be 125cc. Now 300cc is considered small 🙄
I think 300cc is considered huge for a Vespa.
Vespas not as popular in North America especially Canada. Not any groups here in Vancouver bc
You should start one
Not when you wrench on it ...
Can’t be to bad surely
Shame the new model is 30% more expensive for no apparent reason.
Vespa trying to be "premium" I guess.
I'll pass...
Yeah I guess they are trying to be more premium, but when you've got that name they can probably afford to be.
@@BikerTorque
If people keep buying the same scooter for much more money they'll be alright.
[ Like ] ...a lot. :)
Thanks
Fantastic interview Sharnie ! You are a great ambassador to Vespa and all Vespisti. 🛵🛵
We agree! Glad you enjoyed it.
