    I bought my wife a GT200 for her 50th birthday not knowing if she would really ride it or not. I am a Honda CBR 600 rider and just never thought I would want to ride around on this sccoter. Well, I have discovered that it's easier to ride, carry bags and packages, maneuver in tight spaces and my wife makes excuses to go to the store now. Only two gripes so far, the throttle has a slight delay from applying to going so if you're on a hill, you have to time the grabbing of the CVT to your picking your feet up, and the gas tank, it will overflow easily so don't leave it unattended. All else is great, mileage in the 65-70 range for our first few tanks. We are looking to get another scooter now and sell my Honda.

    I had gotten an LXV initially, and after one week decided to go on and buy a GT-60. I've really been so pleased with my Vespa.

    I had gotten an LXV initially, and after one week decided to go on and buy a GT-60. I've really been so pleased with my Vespa. Very zippy, albeit a huge machine to move around in Manhattan Traffic, but I like the heft and the zippiness of this beast. Gives me some room, and lots of power when needed. You get a lot of looks with a Vespa...and when it's parked, it gets a lot of people coming over to look at it. Overall, I can't get over how pleased I am with this scooter. Scooters in NYC, there should be more of us.

    I've been a Vespa rider for over 25 years. All I can say is that I'm speechless. The speed is phenomenal. The handling is great. The fit, finish and detailing is superb.

    I've been a Vespa rider for over 25 years. All I can say is that I'm speechless. The speed is phenomenal. The handling is great. The fit, finish and detailing is superb. I'm still getting my head around owning an automatic shifting bike. But, when you scream through the gears like this, who cares? My dealer warned me...you'll get going faster than you realize and it's true. The GTS 250ie is my dream scooter.

    This machine is great. I started with a Kymo BUG Espresso 150cc which was crap, terrible, cheap, nasty and as the saying goes 'you get what you pay for'.

    This machine is great. I started with a Kymo BUG Espresso 150cc which was crap, terrible, cheap, nasty and as the saying goes 'you get what you pay for'. After this, I moved to a Vespa GT200, which was pretty good and would have suited my needs, but then, I went onto the GTS250ie and haven't looked back, what a machine. Zippy, fast, fuel efficient, easy to use, zippy, fast (sorry, already said that). I'm almost up to 5,000kms on one set of tyres which I believe from the dealer is pretty good and looking forward to putting some nicer tyres onto the bike. Before I upgraded from the GT200, I spent a lot of time finding the right bike and researching the GTS250 and fuel injection. My research showed there are a lot of happy owners out there and I'm one of them. If you're looking at a GT200 and can afford the extra, buy the GTS250, you won't be disappointed. If you're tyring to save money, my pick would be a second hand GT200 without a doubt. On a negative side, the only thing I would add is if you are looking into the crash bars; make sure you get the full set as supplied by Vespa. They are more expensive than the after market (half size version), but I found the crash bar bracket ended up fraying the radiator hose over a period of time and before you knew it, radiator fluid everywhere. So, the old bars (aftermarket) came off and I now have a full set from Vespa on order. Can't wait, have seen pictures and they look great. Well, off for a ride, it's wet and horrible outside, but who cares, being out on a Vespa 250 is instead of inside is so much better.

    Great tire really helps the Vespa corner. Forget about the factory Savas, which cannot even begin to compare the Zippy.

    Great tire really helps the Vespa corner. Forget about the factory Savas, which cannot even begin to compare the Zippy. The Zippy really has the street tread and performance blend that enable the Vespa to handle like a completely different machine. I did not know a tire could make such a dramatic difference. I cannot comment on wear performance because I have not owned the tire very long.
