The Piaggio Zip 50 is the bike I passed my CBT on and it is a very decent bike. The only problem I actually have at the moment when driving around is to remember to turn my indercators on and off. The bike is a good design and very easy to use, as soon as you get going, that's it, you don't really want to come off it. The seat is extremely comfy, although I got a bad back the first time I drove it, but that might also be from the fact that I used to ride a pedal bike everywhere and the lean just gave me the pain back that I used to get from that. I'd recommend this bike to anyone who might want to learn how to ride or just wants a small bike to get around on. It is also very reliable and cheap.

I have owned a Zip for 18 months now, and i am glad of the investment. Thew extra few cc`s make such a difference to the engine, and the initial throttle response is very good. The model I bought had 8000K on the clock, so performance was not as good as it could have been, but as I understand newer models have no such problem. Obviously after ...  Read the complete review

I've had one of these for over a year and covered around 7000 miles. It fills the gap between the pedal cycle and the car - much more fun than the car, faster & less effort than the bicycle!!

I bought my 1st ZIP 50 back in August last year. If you want a great beginner's scooter, there is no better place to start. Stylish, nippy, especially when you derestrict them (45mph is easily hit), cheap and fun, I thought there could be no better way to beat the commuting blues in London. They retail for only £1,200 new, discounts are easy, ...  Read the complete review

you see the Piaggio Vespa ET2 absolutely everywhere and this is for a reason. Frankly it is the most efficient and stylish scooter in its power and price range. THis is not only the opinion of me or the shopkeeper but also mechanics i have contacted and other motorcyclists. There is no more to say about it, if you are looking for a 50cc scooter ...  Read the complete review

Our Piaggion Typhoon 50 is just the business. You can go a top speed of about 44 mph downhill, it's got the amazing prophetic words 'Tech for Fun' emblazoned in a dazzling yellow all along the side and we can even fit 2 people on it and get up the hill to the pub and then just kind of roll back. Only prob is it keeps getting ...  Read the complete review
