2005 Vespa PX 150 review from United States of America
"It's a real scooter"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
The shifter cable broke at 115 miles, was replaced under warranty.
The clutch cable broke at 1275 miles, was replaced under warranty.
General comments?
Aside from the two broken cables, I am pleased with my PX 150. It offers the old-school scooter experience on a machine made completely from new parts, and having a warranty is a big plus.
It is engaging because it is so *mechanical*, like the Miata I had a few years ago.
