Vespas - they look, sound and smell shit. Is there some kind of design genius that I just don't get because I'm not a moped rider? Or is it just the whole mod scene thing?

Scooter. Moped is no more than 50cc.

Early Vespas are beautiful, the GS160 for instance. Lambretta are my preference. You sit on a Vespa, you sit in a Lambretta. They ride way better, and look loads better IMHO.

I have never felt nearer death on two wheels than when riding a Lambretta. It wasn't mine and I don't know if that way of cornering is how I should have done it. It didn't feel right or proper.

My granddad was a lifelong motorbiker (only got a car license once he retired)
He told me to get a motorbike, anyone but not a scooter. Called them deathtraps, uneven weight distribution and unstable.
