To the brain trust that is Modern Vespa, I'm looking at a 2018 GTS with low miles. Is there anything in particular I should look out for on this Scoot? Thanks, --Steve

Great bike. One of the last non-HPE 300s. It's a 7 year old bike. Brake fluid and coolant should be changed if not done recently. If the seller has no record of this, use it to get a lower price. Pull the dipstick while on centerstand. Check color and level of oil. Does it fire right up, and idle smoothly? A low mile 7 year old Vespa should be fairly straight forward unless the seller is hiding something.

Don't forget to consider tire condition and age in your assessment.

No, but the Red GTS does look sharp, if not a bit overpriced.

Way overpriced. Picked up a 2018 with less than 500 miles on the clock about this time last year for $5k.
