Sorry, but the Vespa was great for commuting, but the handing was crap. I don't think you can compare the twisty performance of a scooter and that of a motorcycle. The CG is much farther back and lower on a scooter, so it performs completely differently. |
50cc motorcycles are quite different from 650cc motorcycles too.
A 50cc Vespa scooter is a world apart from a Burgman 400 or 650, or Honda Silverwing, etc. However I do not get the vibe that the original poster is really interested in a scooter - so the point is probably moot.
