Mga sir hingi po sana ako ng reviews and comments about this adorable Italian scoot... ty

sir pics naman ng skipper nio, coz im planning to buy one.

adorable nga tong italian scoot na to, a complete sleeper, very fast kahit stock,hindi ganong mataas ang dulo pero mabilis nyang marating ang dulo,two stroke kasi, pero ibang usapan napag me mods na, malakas nga lang sa gas, yung skipper ko nasa 18 to 23 km per liter, maganda handling nito, isang cons lang nito e napakamahal ng mga parts at medyo mahirap hanapin, kailangan ng conversion lalo na pag me nasiraan ka sa electrical like cdi or regulator kung ala kang budget hehe..in short,medyo mahirap maintenace, medyo lang..

a picture paints a thousand words... kaya eto share ko lang pictures.

eto naman.... video kung may fast connection ka.

pictures pa

eto napansin ko sa modelo na ito...tagalugin ko na para madaling maintindihan.

mabilis na mabilis na mabilis sa arangkada... malamang sa combination ng magandang italian engine, light overall weight, maliit na gulong, etc... maganda ito sa tight technical na race track course.... mahuhuli ito sa straights siguro (ewan ko) kung sa stock performance parts lang. pero siguro kung experienced ka pwede sumabay pero pag-papawisan ka nga lang siguro.

mataas ang upuan (parang Vespa pero mas mababa ng konti), kaya kailangan upo ka sa medyo unahan para maka apak ng husto paa mo sa karsada sa buhol na traffic... yun ay kung pandak ka rin tulad ko... pang italyano kasi siguro hehehe...

plastic lang ang fairing.. hindi bakal tulad ng Vespa.

parang sports car and korte ng fairing .... sa harap at likod.... medyo ma iba naman ang itsura..... medyo mataba pero kaya pa rin lumusot sa mga nakatigil na sasakyan...

automatic kaya di sasakit kaliwang kamay mo sa traffic kaka-kambyo. yung kanan kamay mo naman baka lang sumakit kaka-twist and go... hehehe ( I did enjoy the manual transmission operation of the Vespa PX150... but i like automatic transmissions better ... its just me.)

mataas din at malapad ang side mirrors.... may maliit na screws para higpitan yung malapit sa pivot ball ng mirrors para sumikip.

yung brake fluid level, pwede masilip (without opening up the screws) mula sa butas na may takip sa may right hand controls... kailangan ng flashlight dahil madilim ... ewan kung bakit ganun ang design ng italyano... hehehe

nagtanong ako para maging bago sana ang signal lenses pero mukhang walang stocks kahit sino.... PM nyo lang ako kung meron.

ma-ikli at magaan and scoot na ito.. madali kabigin humiga pa kaliwa o kanan parang mountain bike lalo na kung magigipit at alanganin ka ...

front disk brakes na.. pero rear drum brakes lang... malakas naman.

maluwag ang underseat compartment.

electric start and kick start... kailangan mo pa tumayo sa likod o sa left side ng bike para sipa-in ang lever.

center stand lang sakin pero madali engage... a-apakan mo lang yung arm ng center stand, kusang atras at a-anggat na ang buong scoot kahit di mo hilahin o itulak pataas ng kamay mo para mag stand... wala akong side stand... di na rin siguro kailanggan

medyo ma-iggay siya... okay na rin at madali malaman ng motorista at pedestrian na malapit ka na... maniwala ka... madalas ako banggain ng naglalakad na pedestrian kung dala ko yung electric bike ko... hahaha!

yun lang sa ngayon.. mukhang nakuha ko na gusto kong experience sa ganitong modelo kaya interesado akong ma-swap ito siguro sa gilera runner... ewan.. siguro ilang bwan pa.

sana nakatulong kahit paano.

would any of you guys know anyone good in customizing the rear end of the seat of the skipper into those seen on the pictures?

for a while I was tempted to sell my skipper at a cost below the market price in my rush to get a semi bigbike.. or a beginners bigbike... now that i am finally learning how it feels to ride a bigger bike.. i now appreciate how quick, nimble, maneuverable, short, and comfortable the skipper really is... if i had the dough.. i would buy the quieter and newer skipper models.. that is if I had the chance... for now (for lack of ... or short of play money or hobby money) I am recirculating funds to get bigger displacement bikes ..... and this cute and adorable thing has to find a new owner.... at least when she's away ..She won't tempt me to zip zap through tight traffic .... I realized it late ...that this tiny, nimbeee, noisy, skippee 'lil scooty makes me look pa-cute when i am on it.. good for me. I have outgrown that now! ... BUT DANG! THEY ARE REALLY VERY PRACTICAL RIDES WITH COMPARTMENTS AND ALL... hehehehe
