My 2023 GTS300 has the word "Vespa" on the body in eight places - right leg-shield, front suspension, speedometer, glove box, battery cover, rear left body panel, transmission cover, top-box.

I think this is a bit much, and I have removed the one on the rear panel and am eyeing the one on the glovebox. An easy job with a hair-dryer.

You just have to look at the scooter to know it's a Vespa!

You'd be surprised how many people have asked me "Is that a Vespa"?

I've now got "VESP0" as my licence plate - it should help 🤣. (Also i wanted people to know what was overtaking them on the freeway)

No, actually it isn't. It was made in Vietnam.
