Ride quality of the Piaggio Vespa is very plush, it absorbs the biggest pot holes and craters to our imperfect roads without any fuss. No matter how the roads surface is, you won't be thrown away nor will your bones hurt. While the ride quality is so good, the handling is not so good. The chassis is stiff but the soft suspension setup, the single sided front suspension and the puny 90 x 100 x 10 tyres don't make it a "Sporty Handling Scooter". The Vespa LX125 is very nimble in the city and has a short u-turn radius. The scooter doesn't like high speed maneuvering or taking sweepers at high speeds because tyres lose grip quickly. High speed stability would have been better if the from a commuter's point of view, while enthusiast will ask for more because of the kind of performance this scooter offers.
