Tracey's Scooter: Vespa LX 150

This is Tracey's Yellow Vespa Scooter. It's a 150cc LX model. It's really sorta like the Lexus of Scooters. She's named is 'Vesper'.

My favorite part of the bike design is the front wheel. It's very similar the very first Vespas. And definitely inspired by an airplane landing gear.

Vespa branding on the automatic transmission. All Vespas, and most scooters, come in Automatic these days.
