  • Whilst on holiday in Ibiza I decided to hire a motorcycle and do a little tour of the island. I opted for a Vespa Sprint 125 (okay, they only had scooters) and I found out where the best roads are. I had a real mini-adventure touring this lovely island.

    Ahhhhh. Ibiza.... Such good memories from when I was younger on a Club 18-30 holiday :)
    Older and wiser, I return to the island and decide to take out a Vespa for a mini-tour. Watch my adventure!

      No idea! It was cheap though. If you hire something like this abroad then test the brakes and check the tyres before accepting the rental!

    What do you mean by the bike was all over the place? Supposed to be good bikes.

    • @RevMonkey
      @RevMonkey  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, obviously it wasn't brand new. 2 things spooked me out on it straight away. The tyres were fooked and the suspension was buggered.
      I had been on the scooter about 1 minute when I had to brake hard for an unforeseen road hazard. The bike skidded and I almost lost both wheels.
      Next up was turning. It took me an hour to avoid being tense on turning into bends as it felt like the tyres were going to give way.
      Twp points here. I should have checked the pressures myself and I should have taken the scooter back. It might not have been THAT bad but it was not what i was used to.

    What sort of storage does that vespa have? What did you like about it?

    • @RevMonkey
      @RevMonkey  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Under the seat you can easily store a helmet and some minor clothing like wet jacket. Little bit in the front too. A rear box would be a good addition.

      I will come back to Ibiza - Loved it. If the weather was better in the winter I would buy a place there!
      I had a nice day. The scooter was a handful at first - skidded a lot and I had no confidence cornering but it came good eventually. I was probably just used to epic handling and sports tyres!

      I did have a look at a few of the vendors near my hotel but they were all scooters or quads. Quads scare me and the usual Japanese stuff looked a bit same-oh same-oh so I thought I would try out the Italian Stallion. ha

    They are like riding a roller skate, engines are also rubbish the cam chains stretch slip and fail in no time, I’ve owned many scooters including Vesps, I now own a Suzuki burgman and Yamaha Xmas, far superior than Vespa,

      @RevMonkey  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I do agree. It was a very fragile bike and often quite scary.
