FV, I read the section on the Vino 125, and my jaw dropped. Soft suspension - are they kidding? I strongly disagree. I made several comments in early posts...
If you guys are referring to the scooter shootout in the Napa Valley with 10 different scoots then maybe I should speak up. Since I live in Napa, and have...
Jetthrobagle, I also have ridden with P200 and ET4s on twisty mountain roads. From my experience, I had no problem whatsoever in keeping up and passing the ET4...
I sure wish I had found my way into scootering back when the Vino 125's were $2199. That price really is a steal. But for $2499 I can't complain. Still almost...

... street ... the ... Or you could be a real rider and not waist effort or brake material and learn to control the throttle. It's a little counter productive...
Rick, I've cornered the Vino 125 at a wickedly fast pace around tight turns, usually to get someone "off my butt" during my commutes. I've yet to find the...
I'll second that - I've banged the centerstand a few times now on hard left turns, but didn't really feel like I was pushing the limit. Conversely, I've...
I just returned from visiting Taiwan, the king of scooter countries. Their newer models all have LED brakelights and turn signals which increase their...
Alternatively you could try one of those license plate frames with the built-in flashing red LEDs. Expensive, but saves having to convert the existing lights....

I got tired of seeing "coming soon" at beginnerbikes.com where the Vino 125 review should be, so I tried to write one. But your input is needed (and much...
