This ultimate classic, retro design Italian Scooter is rarely found for sale because nobody wants to let them go. I get it, because I hesitate every time I think of putting it up for sale. Price: $4,950. This is NOT your typical “scooter” that just anyone can ride. You will need a motorcycle license that permits you to ride at least a 250cc motorcycle. With plenty of power to spare, this sweet little “sleeper” is fast off the line and while happy to sip you around town at low speeds, for those who have a need for speed, has no trouble keeping up with the big boys at highway speeds. The 250ie Vespa is a joy to ride and has been Rated 5 out 5 stars (by Motorcycle.com) in Performance, Quality, Reliability, Ride, Comfort and Value. Having owned many others from 50cc to 400cc, this Vespa ticks all the boxes. Honestly the only reason I am selling it is because she deserves to be ridden by someone who appreciates what they’ve got and I just don’t have the time to ride these days.

Condition: I have owned this iconic Vespa for three years. The previous owner went over in a turn causing a front fender scrape and a small body dent in the right side. Rather than re-painting, I left it as is, and added an “ouch” sticker because this does not affect the look or solid performance of this motorcycle in the slightest. For a stylish, 100% fun ride that costs pennies at the pump, whether you’re heading to the grocery store, cruising the back road sights, or belting down the highway, this Gts 250ie Super will definitely make you smile. Reviews: “I just got in from another "just for fun" 100 mile ride. 80mph on I-45 and 55mph thru the national forest. Scooter is solid as a rock. I'm 280 lbs/6'1" and this 09 gts 250 is all the bike/scoot you'll ever need.”
