2010 Vespa LXV Review

Intro

Vespa scooters have always been famous as style icons in the automobile industry. A Vespa bike is the ideal blend of beauty, passion, and functionality. Vespas provide the added benefits of lesser pollution, reduced congestion, and decreased gas consumption. The LXV was first introduced in 2007. The 2010 Vespa LXV captures the essence of the vintage 1960s Vespas and displays a strong Italian influence in its design and structure.

This model is equipped with an LX engine, a 150cc four-stroke engine that allows for smooth rides on open highways. The Vespa LXV makes everyday living simple and convenient. The 2010 Vespa LXV provides a low center of gravity and a larger front wheel which ensure more control over the bike. The seat design allows for your arms and legs to be positioned at correct angles and for you to enjoy a comfortable riding experience.

This Vespa LXV scooter offers a mixed-type braking system. The front of the bike has a 7.8-inch disc, with hydraulic linkage and a dual opposed piston hydraulic caliper. The back has a 4.3-inch drum with mechanical linkage. The Vespa series of bikes is visually appealing due to the careful attention given to details. The LXV features rich leather seats, chrome bars that reflect earlier Vespa models, and a beautifully designed instrument panel.

The Vespa LXV 150 incorporates style elements from the 1950s and 60s with naked chrome handlebars, a split hand-stitched leather saddle, and smooth leather seats. You will also find other advanced features such as an automatic transmission, an ecofriendly engine, and lots of under-seat storage. The steel body frame of the bike guarantees stability and security in rough conditions.
