Piaggio Beverly 400

The Piaggio Beverly 400 has a top speed of 155 km/h (estimated; note: manufacturer figures not always officially published for scooters), produces 35 hp and weighs 204 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.

Le Piaggio Beverly 400 fait partie de la gamme de maxi-scooters Beverly de longue date de Piaggio, qui a été introduite pour la première fois en 2001 en tant que scooter urbain et de tourisme haut de gamme. La variante 400 cm3 a été introduite dans la génération moderne (à partir de 2021) avec un nouveau moteur monocylindre HPE (High Performance Engine) à 4 soupapes, remplaçant les anciennes offres de cylindrée. Il allie un style sophistiqué à des caractéristiques pratiques, comme un grand compartiment de rangement sous le siège, ce qui en fait un choix populaire pour les navetteurs et les cyclistes de tourisme à travers l'Europe.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

⚙️

Strong Single-Cylinder Engine

The Beverly 400 uses a proven 399cc single-cylinder engine shared across Piaggio Group models, giving it a well-documented service history and widely available parts. It delivers smooth, confident power ideal for urban and highway commuting.

⚠️

Watch the Fuel System

Some owners report fuel injector fouling and throttle body issues, especially on bikes left sitting unused for extended periods. Regular use and quality fuel help prevent costly fuel system cleanings.

💰

Decent Resale Retention

Piaggio's premium brand reputation helps the Beverly 400 hold its value better than budget Asian scooters in its class. Low mileage, full service records, and original condition significantly boost resale appeal.

7.2/10

"Un maxi-scooter performant et confortable qui peine à justifier son poids."

Le Beverly 400 se situe dans une étrange position intermédiaire : plus grognant que le 250, mais jamais aussi urgent que le suggère la cylindrée du moteur. Ces 30 ch donnent l'impression d'être suffisants plutôt que passionnants une fois que vous transportez 207 kg de scooter en haut d'une colline. La position de conduite est vraiment excellente, de larges barres et un siège douillet rendent les séjours de deux heures en ville et en banlieue étonnamment indolores, et le rangement sous le siège et le compartiment avant répondent aux besoins réels des randonnées. Le refroidissement liquide permet de maintenir des températures gérables dans les embouteillages, ce qui est important car ce vélo y passe une grande partie de sa vie. Ce qui est frustrant, c'est la confiance dans les virages : le poids est élevé et la suspension de série est réglée pour le confort plutôt que pour l'engagement. Vous savez donc toujours que vous pilotez un canapé plutôt qu'un vélo de sport, ce qui est bien jusqu'à ce qu'une route secondaire pleine d'entrain vous rappelle ce que vous avez abandonné.

Pros

+Siège longue distance vraiment confortable
+Moteur à refroidissement liquide, adapté à la circulation
+Rangement pratique sous le siège et à l'avant
+Croisière sur autoroute stable et végétalisée
+Une qualité de fabrication Piaggio irréprochable

Les inconvénients

207 kg sanctionnent les manœuvres à faible vitesse
Suspension trop souple pour les routes sinueuses
La puissance semble faible au-dessus de 120 km/h
Un poids élevé nuit à la confiance dans les virages
Idéal pour: Les navetteurs quotidiens souhaitent pouvoir faire des tournées le week-end Ignorez si: Vous privilégiez le canyon-carving au confort

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion

7.5/10
Idéal pour
Urban commuters wanting premium daily Italian reliability

"A genuinely premium used buy if the history stacks up."

$4,500-$7,000 used

The Beverly 400 is Piaggio doing what Piaggio does best — building a genuinely premium maxi-scooter that feels a cut above the usual Asian competition. The parallel-twin engine pulls cleanly from low revs and the suspension setup is surprisingly sophisticated for the class. It's not exciting, but it's impressively competent in a way that earns your trust quickly. Used examples can be brilliant value, but inspect carefully. The semi-automatic gearbox occasionally develops shift hesitation around 30-40k miles, and the electronics package — particularly the ASR traction control — can throw phantom warnings on older units. Always check service history religiously; these engines tolerate neglect poorly and a skipped valve check at 16,000 miles shows up eventually as a rattly headache. For urban commuting and weekend blasts, it nails the brief. Fuel economy sits around 65-70mpg, storage is genuinely usable, and the riding position handles longer stints without complaint. It's not the most thrilling machine on paper, but in daily reality it makes enormous sense.
