Re: bought a maxi again
i think it was just the fact that the vespa had next to no weight and was well tuned so was instant speed
the burg being heavy seemed slugish but i realised i was doing 50mph without realising
off out later as daughter wants to go to my mums house

200 vespa GT is faster up to 20/30 Id say .They always used to say dont give the 400 full throttle straight off the line let it get moving say half throttle once revs are up give it full .
