2009/2010 Vespa GTS 300 Super Scooter overview

[LerdoBurgerPimp]

Very well done , good job

[M1License]

I am thinking of getting a Vespa GTS 300 Super Scooter, but I also want the 2012 Kawasaki Ninja 250. This will be my first time with either one as I am a new 2 wheel driver. Good video.

Thanks.

[cheezgrated]

@M1License Don't be nervous about motorcycling or scooting. Take the MSF course. You'll meet lots of people from all ages who are getting into bikes. It's a safe place to build your confidence and learn how to ride. They'll even teach you how to pick up a bike if you drop it. You really don't want to drop a new bike.

Test ride both bikes once you are more comfortable with your motorcycle skills. I learned early on that cruisers aren't for me. I ride a scooter and a standard motorcycle now.

[stellaspeed10]

4:40 that's because it'a a Honda Ruckus and all owners of them are jackasses and they need a chill pill.

[HOHOHOLYSHIIT]

btw if anyone knows whats the vespa model on fooly cooley??? i rlly want one like that :L

[kb3gjp123]

Its my video how you going to tell me it's not a GTS 300 Super.

[buidoantuongvy]

This one is LX 150. Not gts 300 super.

[proteanview]

The chrome side bars are a nice touch. Good on you. Nice Vespa. ...$6,000? buona notte!

[kb3gjp123]

I get 80MPG per tank city.

[Asodinn]

Just bought mine 2 days ago, got 45 miles on it so far (25 miles just in the drive home from the dealership), all city / back road driving home + to and from work every day so far, and after 45 miles i'm only through 1/4 a tank of gas, so I'm guestimating probably going to get around 70mpg city driving.

[LordLolinghamThe3rd]

Nice in depth review.

[kb3gjp123]

THats the only reason it's over priced.

[Scott97169]

I feel like it's overpriced because of the styling but i guess looking good has it's price tag.

[bboyshine85]

thank you for this video! i'm about to buy one too here in germany. Wanna be agile in the city! :)

[butterflyeffects03]

I'm so jealous. I'm trying to find one but they're so expensive. I can't afford a car or anything!

[aquagroove]

Thanks for the look.

[UBOX13]

Can the windshield come off?

[kb3gjp123]

I get 40MPG per gallon in the city. Outside the city I get 50-60MPG

[MRtwohot4u]

how much does it sell for????

[pmay222]

let me tell you.... you sound like a manhattan gangster from the 1940's....! sucker

[KenantheG]

Beautiful scooter. I wanna get one of this. at least GTS 250.

Nice sharing.

[malayximus]

stylo

[vTANKv]

Beautiful bike, thank you for sharing.

[cinqueottavi]

I got one.Bellissima

[dkw12002]

Nice scooter. Powerful enough for the intersatate too. Classic. That underseat storage is a plastic bucket that lifts out for easy access to the engine. From a Ruckus to a Vespa 300 is a quantum leap. This is a lot of scooter.

[NKS13]

change the tyres dude,are too slicky the originals,put the "grip"one,then take a look at the aftermarket sections and malossi's site..... ;)

[techcrazyguy]

cool scooter dude

[DucatiNY]

Where's the basket that goes on the front?

[killercrx91]

Hey kb3gjp123 I had a Honda Ruckus aswell and IDK what's with kids and them. There are alout of fans of them and I don't see why because I had mine for 4 mouths and then sold it to get a buddy and i'm alout happyer.

[kb3gjp123]

Not my scooter since it is not 50cc and requires Motorcycle license. If you don't mind a 2 stroke(One that requires 2cycle oli in the gas. like blowers and weed wakers) Aprilia SR50 is known as one of the fastest 50cc. Going just about 50MPH,

[OcTaDaN123]

Beatiful ;D I'm thinking about getting a 50cc scooter soon could you recommend one for a beginner?

[kb3gjp123]

Full faced helmet will not fit under the seat. 42L topcase is a must. 40MPG with 2 gallon tank.

[cinqueottavi]

@kb3gjp123 Correct

[montemini177]

@kb3gjp123 40mpg? more like 80+ mpg

[fdiskrn]

Can you fit a full face under the seat?  MPG?

[kb3gjp123]

Highway legal in most states if not all. 280cc. I've only gone 50MPH on one, but I can tell you it was fine at 50MPH.

[kb3gjp123]

Topspeed around 85MPH.

[1996mods]

how fast can this vespa going?

[notsosmartnow]

@1996mods

122km/h is the FACTORY quoted top speed! and is also the actual top speed, the speedometer will show 145km/h at this speed

[1996mods]

@notsosmartnow ok.thanks for the info.

[JASONGOGUEN79]

the first light is oil pressure light

[s3si1u]

That spedometer thing is not technically a "Defect." From what I understand, most scooter and motorcycle manufacturers slightly read higher than your real velocity as standard because they found it greatly decreases motorcycle and scooter accidents. Of course, this fools no one, but just thought i'd throw it out there

[BurningBridex]

Do all the Vespas still have the error where the speedometer needle is off?

[kb3gjp123]

To open the seat you push in the seat lock button next to the leg sheild. To open the glove box you push in the ignition.

[titasdfghjkl]

to open the glove box i think you push the ignition in just like you pust the button to open the seat.

[HardDiscount]

sweeeeet

[markallison1970]

Hi, Im looking at the GTS 125 Super over here in the UK,, they look identical in every way, execpt the 300 i hear has a better spec brake system. The 125 though is shorter in length and also in width but the same height from thier spec sheets,, do you know why ????

[booblebumthumb]

wow what a steal, and it probably literally was.

[nowthatthatsthat]

this video is equally informative and entertaining. TWO THUMBS UP!!!!!

[kb3gjp123]

You can't compare to a fast 500cc or bigger bike, but yea it's much faster then a 50cc and goes up to at least 30 in a few seconds.

[barnett682]

what's the acceleration like?

[kb3gjp123]

Immobilizer comes standard. Alarm system is an accessory.

[starchamberS]

Hi, does it have an immobilizer / alarm as standard on this model? I'm looking to buy this model myself. Thanks

[kb3gjp123]

If your going by your speedometer it's not accurate. 200CC should go about 70MPH or a little faster.

[nuchikim]

85MPH Top speed?

Pretty lame for a big fuel infected engine.

Same as my GT 200 which makes do with a carby and 198cc.

[troutdaletim]

nice scooter. waiting for oregon's win for life to pay off to buy one. considering the 250gtsie.

[davidsrx793]

i like the ruckus more and for 6k i would get a yamaha R6

[kb3gjp123]

Since I posted this I figured out how to open the glove box. Also the 250 has a digital speedometer.

[AndrewinSA]

Correction, the speedometer is analogue, all the other instruments (clock, temp, engine temp, rev counter, petrol gauge, trip/odo are digital.

[AndrewinSA]

Hi there - nice review of this really cool bike, just some things.

1.Push your ignition switch in to open the glove box.

2.There are a couple of other differences between the 250 and your 300 that you have not mentioned - the 250 has a small light in the front and the dash has some other differences, it has a temp gauge and trip and is digital.

Hope you are enjoying, I love my 250.

[kb3gjp123]

I have not drove it without the windscreen. How much you willing to spend? how fast you want to go?

[djsnoochyboochy]

Thanks for the video mate. I like the fact that you showed everything on the bike, like where the indicators are/ what the lights all meant ect. I'm thinking about getting one myself, would you recommend it now that you've had it for a while? Also have you ridden one without the windscreen?

[TempFix]

that scooter is mint man. Totally great :)

i'm jealous

[mealilfirebug07]

rev it any way its ur scooter ... be proud to make her pur

[cgatens]

This was great- I want to see the bells and whistles, the storage- etc

[HUSTLINISMYGAME]

thanks for the reviews

[kb3gjp123]

Ruckus has about 730 Miles.

[mrags123]

I know this isn't the right video for this comment, but how many miles are on your ruckus?

[soonerGLO]

coool review

[kb3gjp123]

I since found out how to open the glovebox.

[ninny56]

nice review!!!
