There are a few reasons seeing a new city by scooter beats a car, a bicycle, your feet or public transportation, and every one of those reasons was borne out during a recent 10-day stay in Berlin atop of the powerful, stylish Vespa GTS Super 300.
A motorcycle is dangerous, first, and attracts attention, second. Nobody minds a sweet little put-putter like a Vespa rolling into their neighborhood. A car? It’s a hassle in a city, plus you’re enclosed and it removes you from the smells and sounds of your immediate neighborhood, something you’ll want as the days go on and you want to feel, on a visceral level, where everything is and where you are.
It’s got a redesigned front, reshaped handlebar, new ergonomic seat and full-LED lighting that’s more than bright enough for your needs and the price is right if you’re looking to buy – around $7,000.
And speaking of surfaces, my Vespa, often parked on the sidewalk outside my Air BNB in Steglitz, could well manage easing the unit on and off curbs when necessary – I didn’t have to look for wheelchair-accessible ramps.
