2007 Vespa GTS 250ie This is a beautiful, functional town and highway scooter capable of cruising at 70 mph. The original owner had a pair of Vespas that mostly sat until 4 years ago when I bought this one with 400 miles on it. I replaced the battery, voltage regulator (a weakness on early GTS models) and all the fluids including the oil, coolant, rear end and brakes. I also replaced the tires because of their age. Since then, the scooter has been 100% reliable including completing four 1,000 mile tours. Recent work includes an oil and filter change, another coolant change, belt, roller and guide change (regular automatic transmission maintenance which is done every 9,000 miles) and a new rear tire (just before last week's 1,000 mile tour). All maintenance has been done ahead of schedule and I have full maintenance records available. Tires are Michelin City Grips with Rideon tire balancer and sealer. Oh yes, I put a new gel battery in it last summer. Accessories include: *Genuine Vespa "fly screen" windshield - does wonders to keep the wind from pushing you back at higher speeds.*Automotive horn inside the bodywork. This is from Scooter West in San Diego. Great improvement!*Crash bars for the rear cowling.*Power port for charging your cell phone.*Brake light modulator to make you more visible.* Vespa GT 200 seat. This is an exact fit bolt on that is much more comfortable than the original seat. Have completed 300 mile days without saddle sores! What's wrong with it? Nothing. There are a few small dings and touch ups but the scooter still looks great. See the close up pictures for the dings. This is a get-on-and-ride-it scooter with no maintenance, repair or replacements needed. I have a video that I think I can email or text you that shows it running. Engine is whisper quiet and the clutch and variator do not rattle. Why am I selling? My touring group is moving from scooters to bigger bikes and a 70 mph cruising speed is not enough to stay with them. So a Triumph Bonneville will soon take its place in the garage. From a vintage look scooter to a vintage look motorcycle. At least I'm consistent. Nothing to add but call or text with your questions. 432-853-2751. I will not end the auction early to sell to an eBay bidder. This is a no reserve auction with a very low opening bid price. Bid early and often!
