2015 Vespa Primavera 150 Review 

Thankyouverymuch for getting back to me at a prompt clip and spending actual time with me. For me, during these times or not it's a tough spend. Looking forward to my 2020 Royal Alloy. First vehicle I am purchasing brand new. Again thankyou you for supporting me into having fun. I have been riding since 86. Buying modern is nothing to be embarrassed of. Lol.Checks in the mail.

One of the nicest Vespas I have ever seen!

Definitely going to invest in one of these babies! Beautiful, a little retro, stylish, and it has ridiculously amazing gas mileage.

Oh my gosh! I'm in highschool and this is way cheaper than buying a car pft, I'm saving for this!

Steve and Robot, you guys do such a great job doing these reviews. Keep it up and be sure to remain the best Vespa dealership in the USA.

I have had my Primavera for 8 months. Very happy with the fit and finish and throttle response which has improved since breaking it in. Braking is good, though I am still unclear why Piaggio is still using a drum at the back. Dislike the red seat on my white Primavera and unfortunately, the Canadian market only has 3 colour choices for the 150 (red, black, white). I swapped out the seat for a black seat from the Sprint and love it. Gas mileage is great. Would have liked an accessory outlet. I have the Vespa top case which is not as roomy I would have liked but matches the scooter well. Tires provide good grip. Must use premium low octane fuel (less ethanol) for best engine performance. It is an expensive scooter that I hope lasts a very long time. It brings a smile to my face and pretty much everyone else I meet as well! I might go back to San Diego just to visit Vespa Motorsport.

Vespa is a iconic scooter

It's so cute... I can't accept not having this

They should have kept the turn signals in the body like the EU models it would look more refined and rid the need to replace extra bulbs.

My first time scooter of choice looming so really helpful.. even from a showroom perspective. Thanks guys. Im pretty much convinced. R

Wow, i just located your channel, already subscribed! very nice videos!! go on like that guys!

these guys are fun and awesome !!

Can you please do the same review for vespa sprint

I know this might sound cheesy, but, one of my lifelong dreams is to ride the Pacific Coast Highway on a motorcycle/scooter.

*+The speaker in the gray shirt@4:33, "One thing to keep in mind this new 3-valve engine on these gets substantially better fuel economy than the old 2 valve motor." Don't keep us in suspense. Tell us what the fuel economy might be. Perhaps you could compare the old and new. Economy is a selling point. What kind of fuel economy can we expect?

Great color. I just wish Vespa prices were 1/3 less. They’d still cost considerably more than other pretty decent 150cc’s on the market. I’m positive they are the best built I understand that.

I just upgraded to one of these from a 2008 LX150, and I have a couple of gripes: 1. We can smell the exhaust when stopped at a stoplight. Never had this issue with the old LX150. Is this a common complaint? Will it go away after we break it in? If not, is there anything I can do to help? (other small gripes) 2. The speedometer really should have the mph in big numbers and km/h in smaller numbers for the US market. 3. The dash should have a separate light for left and right turn signals. My old LX150 had separate indicators. Not sure why this one doesn't. 4. The seat hook is much lower and so less useful than the old LX150. Not sure why that was necessary or why they couldn't have installed a bigger hook. Overall I like the Primavera though. Mileage is great; runs smooth. Hope I can live with these gripes. Hope someone has tips re: the exhaust issue.

Is it sad to be 17 and dream of owning a Vespa?

This is the model that I want to get, but it's difficult trying to find one in the state that I'm in.

Steve and Robot, Thank you for an awesome review! Because of this review, i bought the Primavera 150 as my first Vespa :) I love riding my Primavera every where. I do have one quick question and maybe you guys can help me out. I weigh about 100kg and I'm pretty tall so i was wondering if i want a little more acceleration out of the bike, what can i do? i don't want to change to much. i was reading that changing the rollers to Malossi Rollers 12.5 grams will help a lot. Is this true?

Very helpful video. Two questions: 1) How difficult is it to install a 12v power socket inside (or outside) the glove compartment? Is the handlebar steady during a ride, or slightly wobbly like some of the cheaper scooters with smaller wheels?

More vespa reviewss!!!

is it still a manual shift

What is with the guy's shirt and spinal chord?!? Good video, good info. Love Vespas!

Good job. I'm interested in byiing a 2016 Vespa primavera 150, the same color, European version, 900 Km, almost identical to the one shown in this video. Is there a mechanical diference?

Sorry for a late comment, but I have a question about the instrumentation. Is there a way to change the dashboard to display miles instead of kilometers for speed, or is it permanent? I find it easier to see mph than km/h since all the signs in California are mph.

I'd like to know how many beers will fit under the seat including ice? 🤣

what's the difference of primavera 2014?

Are you related to Maurizio Vespa by any chance? :) Please share your thoughts

I'm new to all of this so pardon my inexperience but I would like to invest in a Vespa just like this for commute to work, school, and home. Do I need a special license for this?

Very curious here, I would like to know the "weight limit" on these guys? I'm 280 lbs , thx Jeff

How many miles will this thing last average just curious. Thinking about purchasing one??

Hey, do you guys know if they will continue this new design language to the 300's?

I noticed a Check Engine Light. This scoot has an OBD system?!? How does one pull codes, and view data pids? Is it compatible with EOBD scan tools? Or do you have to have a special scan tool?

What does this COST?

What if your helmet doesn’t have a D-ring? I don’t see hoe to secure that style helmet

what the different between USA version and Vietnam version! does the engine always different? thank you

"First Vespa to include a chrome headlight bezel" - say what? *Looks at 2010 Vespa S* nooope, try again :)

if your battery dies how do you kick start this ? i dont see a kick pedal

It's nice but will cost around 6000.00 out the door with tax and fees. For my budget I got a 2 year old LX150ie for 1/2 the cost.

Can I order one of these from El Salvador Central América

Very nice but those tacky thrown on signal lights need to go.

ขอบคุณค่า (^^)

i like primavera

is the basic shell still made of metal? or they changed everything to Plastic?

Kids should get a moped license at 14 even if you don't have a moped. The gov't will think you have been riding around and not getting any tickets,, You will get off probation early.

For my vespa i change the oil every 1000 miles

Can the bucket fit two helmets?

This is no doubt a beauty, but that adds to worries that potential owners would have. That is theft and vandalism. Unless you live, sleep, eat and work next to it.

Can Vespa's reach highway speed ?

I like how these guys don't want the review or even the bike to be perfect. Anyone considering getting a Vespa I'd say ride one around the block and try not to smile. American version has some ugly features I gotta say.

Fuck!! Why are the turn signals so ugly on the American version? In Europe and Asia the turn signals are integrated into the body. Over there they made them into stop lights???!!!! How weird is that.

The instrument cluster look like a mushroom

How can you knock this bike? This is the equivalent of a Ferrari in the car world. Old fat guys ride Harley's (Indians are better) and us style folks have these. Don't hate, appreciate.

not as cute as 19165s

when ELECTRO MAGNET PULSE weapons go off in our USA skies ALL "CHIPS" will be fried. Only older cars & vehicles w/ NO ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION will still run. This will not. I am trying to find a vehicle that will still run. SCOOTER - MOPEDS & newest OLDER pickups & basic sedan etc without CHIPS controlling the fuel injection process. (this is why USA wild horses & bison are being killed by federal parks system". 2015 will be an ugly year

Is this a comedy act? If so, they need to work on their timing.

Hello. I have question regarding front suspension of 2015 primavera. Is it normal that stock shock absorber is very soft? And what i mean by soft is that i Can push to tee bottom pretty easily and everytime when braking with front brake absorber goes to bottom. Is this normal behavior? And if it is what can be done to get it stiffer? Thank You for great videos and greetings from Finland

Whats the top speed and cruising speed ?
