Vespa Primavera Vs. Piaggio Liberty - Complete in depth Comparison! 

I like the style and the seating position of the Vespa, but you can't deny the value of the Liberty.

I'd also go with the larger wheels.

Wheels…..honda sh300 or sh125 wheels which are way bigger than the Vespa makes the scooter not as nimble or fun as the Vespa (it surprised me) seriously im not biased towards one or the other, but ridden both back to back. For example, the sh300 is hard and fast, the Vespa a bit slower, but feels like floating on a cloud in comparison and it’s the best scooter I’ve ever ridden around bends on….that’s the Vespa 2008 300 gts compared to 2009 to the latest Honda sh300.

Totally DISAGREE with you. The Vespa is more comfortable and has much better handling. Better sitting position and a prettier scooter.

@@jonathan-th2bg Agree 100% with you. Vespa is much more comfortable and you never get tired of Vespa.

Thanks so much for your support! I really appreciate it!

I got the piaggio 150. Honestly, I wish I would have bought a Beverly instead. The piaggio is a bit slow for me. Even though I use it on the streets it is hard to keep up with traffic in large boulevards without a full throttle. Will not recommend using it in highways.

@@delm1202 Yeah, the 150 is still going to be limited for certain types of roads. But it does open up a whole new world to the 50cc rider.

@@nizarkailani7225 The Vespa is priced higher because it's the more premium scooter. I think they're both excellent quality thought.

@Nizar Kailani You do realize that Piaggio owns and makes Vespa scooters correct?

I still love the look of Vespa's, but you're right, this one has some features that the Vespa design doesn't allow. It's fun working with Jim Gilbert's PowerSports because you can see them side by side and really see which one you prefer.

Piaggio Liberty 150 with plastic body panels will cost much less to repair after accident than a Vespa with metal body dents and dings.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing your experiences!

The Liberty should extend the foot floor bigger for errands.

It would depend on where you live. Check your provincial or state requirements. Sometimes all you need is a car license, sometimes a full motorcycle license, sometimes there are licenses for scooters or lower powered motorcycles. Lots of differences depending on where you are in the world.

Yup. That's absolutely a factor for people to consider.

I'm not sure that I would say more comfy, but the larger diameter can allow them to be less affected by the bumps. I think it's most accurate to say that they do handle rough roads differently, and the larger wheels would likely offer some advantages with that.

I live in Spain and on the cobblestone streets the larger wheels make a huge difference.

Yeah, the type of helmet will make a difference when you're trying to fit it in to that storage area. Not every helmet is going to work perfectly. If you love the helmet, a rear box may be a good solution.

quit being obese

Yeah. Those bigger wheels are nice. I'll have more Piaggio Liberty videos soon! Feel free to subscribe!

I don't usually quote the exact CC's of things, but yes, you're correct. Thanks for watching and contributing.

But cornering grip is much higher on the Vespa as the tyres are a lot wider.

I really like them both, I think people overplay issues with the smaller wheels on the Vespa, and overplay the advantages of the larger wheels of the Piaggio.

Yes! If the seats are closed, they're locked. You need the key in the ignition to access the under seat storage in either model.

@@PeterLoweOne Thanks. I didn't know that. Makes a lot of sense to do it that way. Still dreaming...

Your height shouldn't be an issue on these. I've seen tall people ride these in total comfort.

These are both pretty stable for the speeds that they're going. The wheel size difference is probably more notable than the overall centre of gravity.

Yeah, with size 14 shoes, you'll want to try it out. You could always angle your toes a little out, but you would have to decide if it worked for you or not. I don't know if you can clearly see my feet up close in the video, but I'm wearing size 11 shoes for reference.

There is likely a difference in the specs, but if you can ride one, you can ride the other. Seat height matters less on a scooter than a motorcycle, because if the seat was too tall to place both feet firmly on the ground at a stop, you could step in front of the seat and straddle the bike that way.

Hope you're well! Thanks for watching!

I'm 99% sure it's just visible. I haven't used it in a little while, but that's my memory of how it is.

They each have a slightly different seating position. Both will fit taller people, so it isn't a matter of more legroom or less legroom, it's a matter of which seating position you prefer. I like both, but I'd choose the Vespa for style. It's my personal favourite.

184cm and the Liberty was to small for me. @@PeterLoweOne

True

Thanks for watching!

They're comfortable!!

Yeah, the 50cc version is great for certain areas with different licensing restrictions on larger engined scooters or motorcycles, but the 150 is the one that I'd go for with all other things being equal. I just think you'll use it more if you can go a little faster with ease.

Yeah, there is a price difference. I tend to not mention pricing in my videos because the videos stay online forever, but the pricing can change at anytime.

My wife wanted a Vespa. I asked her about other, cheaper scooters (like Piaggio Liberty or Medley), but she talked only about Vespa. Well, so I compared both of the scooters side by side and Vespa IS much better built scooter (full metal body instead of cheap looking plastic). But it also about two times more expensive. So, finally she picked her Vespa Primavera.
