hi everyone

im 20 years old and recently just passed my CBT, ive been dieing to get a vespa for some years now and now i have the money i can finally get one! my heart is set on a px 125 but having no riding experience ( apart from the cbt ) im kinda worried about buying it. the CBT was also done a automatic so i have no idea how to control a geared scooter. any tips you can give me? sorry for the silly questions!

Clutch in, twist to gear, clutch out very slowly until you feel it pull away, bring the revs up a touch as you let the clutch out if it feels like it's going to stall.

Don't dump the clutch or you're likely to end up with the sooter on top of you.

Oh, and buy a second hand LML instead of a new P range to learn on. If (when!) you drop it, it'll not be as painful

thanks for the advice mate!, i think a second hand LML will be best to learn untill i am fully confident .
