Vespa Px 150 Review

Used Buyer Review

The PX150 is one of those bikes that makes zero compromises for your convenience — and somehow that's exactly why people love it. This is old-school Italian engineering with a two-stroke heart (or four-stroke on later models), a heel-toe gearchange, and absolutely no concession to modern rider expectations. It vibrates, it demands attention, and it will teach you what mechanical sympathy actually means. That's not a complaint. That's the deal. Buying used, you need to check three things obsessively: corrosion on the monocoque bodywork (it's structural, not just cosmetic), gearbox wear on the selector forks, and whether the previous owner actually serviced it. A neglected PX is a money pit. A maintained one will run forever. Earlier carb models are simpler to work on; post-2011 four-strokes are smoother but lose some character. Budget for a full service immediately regardless.
