Milano, 18 June 2008. Marco Simoncelli, the Team Metis Gilera rider who clocked up fantastic wins in the last two GPs (Mugello and Barcelona), is clearly in the running for the 250 World Championship.

Marco or ‘Super-Sic’, as his fans know him, is establishing himself as the most promising new Italian rider in the 250 class, and is already famous for his exciting on-track battles and amiable off-track personality.

While relaxing during the pause in the championship before the UK GP, Marco was eager to try out the latest addition to the Gilera range, the new Nexus 300.

Marco Simoncelli took the Gilera Nexus 300 around Misano, the home circuit for many great Italian riders, and had tremendous fun showing off the scooter’s prowess with high angles of lean and rapid direction changes.

Marco played with the new Nexus 300 just as he does with his racing Gilera, and enjoyed an entire afternoon of fast cornering, stunts and burn-outs.

“The Nexus 300 is a really great scooter to ride,” Simoncelli told us in his broad Romagna accent. “You can tell immediately how manoeuvrable, light and agile it is. It’s got all enough power it needs for fun riding too. It’s a great new model; fast and really nippy.”Marco also had the chance to try out the world’s fastest and most powerful scooter, the mighty, twin cylinder Gilera GP800. The experience left him surprised and enthusiastic: “My God! I’ve never ridden a scooter with that sort of power before. It’s like riding a motorcycle.”

Celebrating 60years of Vespa History. Timelessly elegant design and a compact steel body are the hallmarks of an exceptionally snappy Vespa that stands out in the hurly burly of urban traffic.

The Vespa LX is the sublime heir of a truly unique legacy, a designer scooter for those who want a stylish, avant-garde scooter for town use.

The round headlamp recalls vintage Vespas and echoes the Vespa Granturismo’s design. The rear-view mirrors in chrome-plated steel are a style element straight out of Vespa history. The big, easy-to-read instrument panel features a speedometer, odometer, fuel gauge and digital clock as well as a turn signal indicator, low and high beam and oil level indicator. The anti-theft LED is standard on the 150cc.The front shield is wide and offers excellent protection. The turn signal indicators with a stylish plastic cover are different from those on the ET: they are bigger for better visibility, with a more angular shape. The square front mudguard goes well with the front shield shape, wrapping the 11” wheel rim, which has an elegant five-spoke design in aluminium alloy.

The inside of the front shield has a glove compartment in the same colour as the bodywork to hold a mobile phone, gloves, sunglasses or other small objects. The under-seat storage area holds a full-face helmet.
Clever proportion is a Vespa trademark. The large, flat footrest panel, which makes for very comfortable riding, links the front to the rear, running all the way to the geometrically shaped cowls. This is another detail that recalls earlier Vespas. The cowls bear the classic Vespa logo and the model name and slope down to the indicators built into the bodywork. The overall design of the rear is more sharply traced and more typically ‘Vespa’ than the ET series. The tail end is blunter, emphasising the solidity of the all-steel scooter. It holds a 1970s-Vespa-style tail lamp.

The well-shaped wide saddle is made to comfortably host both rider and passenger. The passenger can use the chrome-plated handgrip that is functional as well as stylish. Saddle height of merely 785 mm gives riders of any height perfect control of the vehicle. The seat-opening button is handily located on the left side of the saddle, commonly used when getting off the scooter. There is a bag hook on the front of the saddle to rest a rucksack or bags of shopping on the footrest panel.
The Vespa LX has both a central stand and a side stand. Simple to use, with a spring that snaps it back into position for extra safety, the side stand is ideal when you need to leave the scooter idling on quick stops.

Frame and cycle parts

The monocoque steel load-bearing structure is a feature unique to the Vespa. The LX uses avant-garde technology to keep the Vespa steel body tradition alive.
Besides overall solidity, the steel structure gives the scooter exceptional rigidity for precise handling and steering.

The front suspension with its dual effect hydraulic shock absorber has an aircraft-derived single-sided trailing arm, a feature that has marked every Vespa since 1946. On the Vespa LX the single arm uses roller bearings to reduce wear and tear.
At the rear the Vespa LX has a suspension with a dual effect hydraulic single shock absorber. Spring pre-load is adjustable to four positions on the 125 and 150cc versions so that the rider and passenger can modify ride set-up for maximum comfort.
The wheel rims have an elegant five-spoke design. For the first time the front wheel diameter goes up to 11”, enhancing stability and the feeling of a safer ride. The tubeless tyres are 110/70 on the front wheel and 120/70 on the 10” rear wheel.

The brakes are a classic disk-drum combination. The hydraulic front disc brake in stainless steel has a 200 mm diameter and a caliper with two opposed pistons for quick, precise braking, backed up by the strong, easily modulated mechanical rear drum.
The 8.6 litre fuel tank fits into the body without reducing the under seat space and allows easy, tool-free access to the engine area.
The150cc tops the Vespa LX engine range. Power output of 11.7 bhp and top speed of 95 km/h make it possible to handle mid-range trips safely while offering a cost-effective 37 km to the litre.

All the engines on the LX and the other Vespa models are the result of the challenge the Piaggio Group has set itself: offering customers performance, reliability and safety as well as the knowledge of riding a vehicle with minimal impact on the environment.
The Pontedera plant is the Piaggio Group’s major research and development centre in the engine sector and is internationally recognised for excellence.
