Modern Vespa

So after a few years of adopting pre-loved Vespas, I finally bit on my local shop's holiday promotion and picked up two brand new (2023) Vespas. The fleet was previously comprised of the stunning 2006 GT200 in Verde Vintage, and a couple of GTS250ie, 2007 black and 2006 silver. The 250s were traded in along with some clam$ for a new GTS300 and a Primavera 150 Color Vibe. The 300 is intended for some longer trips around the state and up to British Columbia, and the 150 is mostly for my elder daughter who wants to do some riding again now that she is no longer pregnant. The younger daughter is pretty chuffed about the 300, she thinks it's the best thing going.

Both daughters took the MC safety course and earned their endorsements when in high school after I bought a Yamaha Vino 125, they like riding so much I decided to add another Vino. A series of Buddy 125s, 150s, and a 170i followed, and I finally grabbed the gorgeous green GT a couple of summers ago, and haven't looked back.

Not sure if things are getting out of hand, or if I'm finally seeing the light. At any rate, it sure is a lot of fun.

I appreciate all the accumulated experience and knowledge here in this group, it has helped me immensely. Thanks for being willing to share that.

Cheers,

Bob

Beautiful scoots. Hope they do you well. If you come up to BC and want to find some people to share in a ride there is the Bridge and Tunnel Scooter Club. There are some good scenic rides. http://www.bridgeandtunnelscooterclub.com/

A big congratulations on the new Vespas. Ride safe.

Congrats! Nice score and the 150 color scheme looks fantastic. Extra points for your family that also enjoys scooters, that is pretty cool. 😎

Wild color scheme. Looks great. I am more of a boring one color guy. Although, I expect you will get more looks on the road.

Great looking scooters! Lucky owners.

Best wishes! I used to tote my daughter to elementary school on my Genuine Buddy and she'd ask if she could get a scooter when old enough. Of course, things changed after the learner permit. *sigh*

That Vibe looks ace.

That Vibe "Arancio" combination is one of my favorites. The blue anodized wheels are the best we've ever seen. Have a blast and stay safe with the family!

I'll happily join in on the congrats on your new scoots! I'm up for a new 300GTS Super in January, and I'm thinking that your black one looks mighty nice. Reminds me of an '05 ET2 50 I had several years ago. Hmmm...
