If you are in the market for a scooter, the P200 is a good choice.
It is a well designed "classic" scooter with power to spare. Many people complain
about the angularity of the P-Series, but they are still very waspy. The front mudgard
and cowls are what give the "P" it's look. I think it really suits an electronic music lifestyle (reminds
me of the old JX-3P synth in my room). Anyway, I find the specifications give a good insight into the workings
of this infamous series. What follows is a list of specifications for the Vespa P200 under
