    GOOD POINTS:
    light at only 108 kg's

    BAD POINTS:
    small fuel tank
    getting to sparkplug a bit fiddley
    Seats abit high at 810mm

    On the whole a great little scooter mines the 125st with matching topcase which is great if you have a pillion and need to stow away two helmets, you can just about get one under the seat.
    I've found the fuel consumption to be around 65-75mpg thats just riding through town and not flat out, my only small gripe with the bike is it'ill only take just over a gallon to fill meaning every 80 miles your back at the petrol station!
    Top speeds about 65mph and about 55 with a pillion, twos up the bikes still pritty responsive and the back padding on the topcase is a nice touch for your pillion.
    I'm 5'6" and have found the seat is a little on the tall side when you do have to stop at lights etc, but then so was the gilera 180 I had before.
    I would recommend this scooter but would just say don't expect to be pinned back in your seat when you twist your hand back, just sit back and enjoy the ride while your filtering between all them cars!

    I've only had the Piaggio Skipper ST for a short while, so can't comment too much on the reliability, but so far I'm really pleased with it!
    This is my first scooter (having owned motorcycles previously) and I'm loving the twist-&-go lifestyle thus far!

    I love the style of it (I have the blue ST 125cc with the matched top box) and the big fat tyres are great for cornering. Brakes are good (if a little wooden at the back), and the 4-stroke engine is strong, but it's obviously not as quick as a 2 ...

    Mine is a 2004 model 150cc. Good size, not a maxi but longer wheelbase and larger wheels than a Vespa LX150 while having the same mechanicals.
    Reasonable unseat storage and another small lockup glove compartment between feet. I bought it as old stock, unused early in 2006 and have done 11,000km on it in nearly two years.
    Mostly motorway commuting. Only problem was a leak in rear hub seal which made the rear brake useless at 7000km. I replaced the seal and rear brake shoes and now it is fine. ...
