I bought a new '09 model SR50 in the summer of 2009 and did lots of research before buying. It came with a chrome Leo Vince exaust which looked great. I can't compare power from stock because I never rode it stock. I had the ECU flashed and took out the restrictor plate in the intake. I normally rode this scooter at 45-50 mph., it's very fun!! It handles like a little sportbike with the upright comfortable riding position. The storage is just fine. The gas mileage was always over 100 mpg. at full throttle and that was awesome!! The fuel pump failed at 1800 miles and the dealer had it for two months because of a back order ($300 pump). I was not happy with that but it's a great and fun scooter and very economical.

I gotta say, this bike often gets overlooked as Aprilia is not a household name... but those who are overlooking it are really missing out. It is a great bike, comfortable riding position, and man does it pull. It can easily make a 21 year old out of a 30 something-plus man. A complete hooligan...

It is a great bike, comfortable riding position, and man does it pull. It can easily make a 21 year old out of a 30 something-plus man. A complete hooligan bike which can also cruise city streets. If you have not straddled an Aprilia, make it a point to do so!

I am on my second Scarabeo 500. I rode the first one from Miami, FL to San Francisco, CA and back and the only problem was a screw in the rear tire which was easily repaired with a plug. I love riding this scooter so much that I put 7k miles a year on it versus less than 4k miles a year on my...

I love riding this scooter so much that I put 7k miles a year on it versus less than 4k miles a year on my 400hp (from the factory) sport car.

It has plenty of power for country travel as well as being light weight for city commuting. I have never had a bit of trouble with it. I recommend this 250 scooter to anyone wanting to save on gas money.

The Scarabeo 250 is a great vehicle! My wife and I have traveled in hills and in city traffic for many miles so far and we LOVE it! We can carry 3 bags of groceries in the case, plus hang one over the hook in front and this thing still handles traffic beautifully! The 'kink' was a fuel line issue which made the bike die every so often with little warning. Apparently this was due to the way the fuel line runs to the engine. Anyway, the dealer found out about this from Aprilia and made some adjustments, and now it simply runs beautifully. AND, it is a fine looking bike as you can see!

I bought my SR50R in July of 2006...the buying experience was not a pleasant one, but it was worth it. My best friend and I bought ours together in effort to combat the high gas prices. We both live in the Suburbs of Houston and ride downtown every day. I also ride a 2006 Yamaha R6 and I can tell you that the SR 50 is every bit as fun to ride. The scooter is comfortable, and reliable and it just plain looks cool. I have wrecked mine once on a gravel road (not recommended) and the SR 50 took it like a champ.

The Tuono instills confidence right from the get-go. What a great naked liter bike. It was soooo hard to keep it under 6000 RPM those first miles, but the huge torque and relative smooth-running at low rev's helped immensely. Then 7500 rev's for another little bit. Took 10 days of after-work...

The Tuono instills confidence right from the get-go. What a great naked liter bike. It was soooo hard to keep it under 6000 RPM those first miles, but the huge torque and relative smooth-running at low rev's helped immensely. Then 7500 rev's for another little bit. Took 10 days of after-work evenings to break it in; just could not get back on my Ducati ST3 without feeling it was an unrefined beast. The Tuono is now THE ONE for solo rides and such a pleasure in the twisties. Not a single issue with it... the lack of a fuel gauge was at first, but a few tanks later you get confidence in the range between petrol stops. The tires (Metzlers) are superb, albeit a bit too soft for lots of road miles (it is, after all, a track machine it would seem). Must slow down as 140 MPH feels soooo good on this baby. The multi-function display is easy to read, easy to use, and keeps tack of all the important stuff. Now I want the RSV Mille!
