Don't think they'll ever make a shifty electric. Those days are gone.

What do mean those days are gone? I dreadfully fear the day that traditional petrol stations are gone. It's just a matter of time before we'll be forced to convert our dearly beloved two strokes to electric. I understand the changes taking place, but it will be a sad day.

Definitely. Any electric would most likely be CVT. My guess is within the next 10 years and the rate of battery technology development, e-PTW's are going to outnumber those drinking dinosaur squeezin's.

I don't see it as a Vespa, or a replacement for a Vespa...but to me, i think it has a very pleasant shape. I also think i can cram in a P200 engine in it as well.

It's a bit cartoonish for my liking... I can just see Yogi Bear riding it.

I'd rather see Melody from Josie and the Pussycats on it.

Re: Electric
Honestly I don't think I could dream up a more uncomfortable looking seat.

Maybe the seat is designed to make you happy it doesn't have more range.

The first thing I thought when I saw the seat is that it looks like the Vespa 946.

Take a closer look at that picture. Either the helmet was photoshopped in at an inaccurate scale, or the scoot is ginormous.

Or it's going to marketed to dwarfs.
