Technically they're scooters not peds.

I rode a Peugeot Speedfight for 4 years and enjoyed every minute of it. Clocked up 12k km on her, and would recommend getting one.

Scooter? Why?

If its because you don't like gears get a gilera DNA, they're automatic

If you're not bothered about going too fast, get a 4 stroke. Anything'll do really, I like Piaggios (sp). And if you do want to go a bit quicker, get a bike Very Happy

Pugs in my opinion are horrible to ride - that front suspension arm just doesn't feel right .
Don't bother with a 100 as it's basically a derestricted 50 - look for a nice Runner . A VX125 is probably the best as it has an engine like a tank , is reliable , fuel efficient and fast .

I meant a VX - yes it's got slightly less topend but is about 100% more reliable ( being a 4t) and will cost less on insurance because the FX is the sports model

I thought the SP was the sports model, as the FX has a rear drum, unlike the sp which has a rear disk...

Thought the FX was a 2t ?

If it's a 4T then it must be a 180cc model right ?
As the VX is the 125 model
