New Vespa store in Milan
Vespa has opened a store in Milan, in a new space on Viale Vittorio Veneto, that follows other Vespa stores in Italy opened in Rome, Naples and Florence. The Italian fashion capital hosts the store in the shopping district of Corso Buenos Aires, and it’s designed not just as a scooter store, but also an information point on Vespa fashion and accessories.
For us two-wheelers, you will also find all the joys of the new Vespa models, in classic, vintage and sports range. The new GTS 125 Super and the LX 50 4Valvole are displayed, together with their accessory and clothing range.
More Vespa shops in Europe and Italy will follow, as the classic “Made in Italy” brand becomes even more popular. For full details on the Vespa store, see our news on Blog Dolce Vita.
Test ride Vespa GTS 125 Super
We had a test run a few days ago at the Vespa Day Milan of the new Vespa GTS 125 Super. One of our colleagues, back in the good old days, had a magnificant Vespa P200E from 1979, and he can confirm that taking out the new GTS 125 Super still gives you that true Vespa feeling. As we all know, a Vespa is a Vespa.
The Vespa style has always remained more or less what it is today, with only a few touches to modernise the scooter to keep up with current technology and the market. The new GTS 125 certainly makes use of Vespa’s strong points, showing off a classic 60’s style.
The engine is a single-cylinder 125 four-stroke, liquid cooled with the new Electronic Cooling System that guarantees reduced energy use and greater fuel efficiency. The electronic ignition combines to make 4.9 hp at 9,750 rpm.
Vespa GTS 125 Super preview pics
These are the first pics released by Piaggio of the splendid new Vespa GTS 125 Super, which inherits the same elegant and aggressive style from the Vespa 300 Super. The new GTS 125 is designed to reflect and continue the style of legendary Vespa models of the past like the Vespa GS from 1955, the 180 SS from 1964, the 90 SS from 1965, the 200 Rally from ‘72, the ET3 from ‘76, and the T5 “Pole Position” from ‘85.
The GTS Super has electronic ignition, and appears elegant, comfortable and robust. It features side grill as on past Vespa models, with new twin-colour alloy wheels. It’s racing soul is on display, with rear suspension, red varnished spring, front sports style and chrome features.
The headlight is round and classic in style, with a black surround. The seat is typical sports Italian style, with black and grey finish. The original Vespa 125 engine dates back to 1948, rendered famous in the Roman Holiday film. Now the engine is agressive, sporty and safe, with easing handling and sprint capabilities.
