Hi new member just wanted to introduce myself and my ride which is my first Vespa a 2019 Sprint 150S in Versace Blue matt paint with matching top box. I have loved riding this around for the past 10 months around my hometown through the hills and backroads and more recently find myself taking it everywhere I can. In fact I am strongly considering upgrading to the new GTS300 SuperSprint to use on the freeways and ride to work. Just started reading the forum looks like a great deal of knowledge here which I will very much appreciate. Thanks Andrew

***Update***
The 150 Sprint has gone to a new owner and I have upgraded to the Second Edition GTV300 Sei Giorni 2022 model with just 1200kms on it. For those contemplating the jump from a Small frame to a Large frame Vespa, do it the power on this bike is amazing and so agile for a larger frame. Many great trips ahead I am sure..... only downside so far is the storage is actually smaller than the 150 Sprint and my 3/4 helmet will not fit as it would in the 150. ![]() ![]()
