  • Do we talk scoots in here?

    Sold my Virago 250 a couple weeks ago as I broke an exhaust stud and couldn’t face stripping it down. I’d barely been riding it anyway over the last 18 months or so.

    I’ve been surreptitiously keeping an eye out for what I could replace it with but not seeing much that I fancy.

    There was a VN1500 at a decent price that I thought could be cool but I’m enjoying the extra space in the garage and it would just take over the whole thing.

    Thinking something compact like a Vespa could be fun but the prices all seem really high on eBay. Buying from a dealer would make things easier as I could do finance maybe but I don’t really know where to start looking. It’d be a px150/200 style thing I’d be looking for.

  • If you're not set on Vespa styling the Honda SH125/300 is decent for a London scooter. They are a bit slimmer if garage space is at a premium. Yamaha and Vespa probably get stolen more often.

    Would have thought electric would be an option if you have a garage. I ended up dumping the scooter format for a Brompton Electric and I'm happy with that choice but I've got a large capacity m/bike for those times when I need one.
