Just brought my 2021 Liberty home Saturday! I absolutely love ❤️ it!!
Thanks for taking the time to make videos like this. I have a deposit down on a grey Liberty S and am even more excited for it!
Have fun!
Looks great in grey.
I've had a Liberty 150 for a year now and really like it. Practical and handles great.
Good to hear!
I read it's annoying to refuel, because the opening is tight and the gasoline spill a lot. Do you have that problem?
@@momchilyordanov8190 I have that "problem," well, you can fix that problem by just not going full on pressing the gas lever, this is a must on any scooter as far as I know. Just press it hard at first, then kind of release the gas pump slightly till it kind of drips, and just keep dripping it till full. It's a common thing.
Another great, informative and straight forward review. Thanks again- I just acquired one here near Philadelphia, PA because of your 2020 review. Also acquired some items from Scooter West including Vespa Primavera bar ends...not easy install, but I got them on. Many thanks! You guys are the best!
Thanks for watching!
Great review, looking forward to the accessories!! Hopefully it’s not too late to get a 2020 I love the black with the tan mix!
i have been using the piaggio liberty since late 2016 early 2017 and its been a joy ever since. I have around 24,000 miles on it and never had an issue with it. It always started from the first try.
On what milage you changed the tires?
@@gltsry8627 i think at around 10,000 12,000 miles
Thanks so much for the video! So excited so the accessories for this baby.
Have fun!
Good presentation! It helps to make a good decision 👍
Love your videos! I have a Liberty Sport (2019) and I love it. Does Piaggio make a 200, 250, or 300? I'm thinking about moving up a smidge...
You Sir, have a beautiful looking shop! I would definitely buy my scooter from you. We have nothing like this in Australia
Maybe one day!
Question please Own a Vespa oil mixer Is it necessary to put oil in the mixer, an oil that has a spike and a low and no normal, i.e. oil 50? Secondly, in how do I know that the mixer does not work, and is it better not to activate it and manually mix in the tank, or to activate it?

After spending several months debating which scooter to get, Liberty is the one to get for the money.
The price sounds great, until you add on all the "fees" My local dealer wants $5200 OTD for a $3000 scooter.
I'm considering selling my almost never used car for a scooter and this one is the one I have my eye on.
Always been a dream of mine to have a piaggio scooter. This would be my toy 😎
Thank you guys for the great information!
Go for it!
I actually did just that! I’m saving over $500/mo! Best decision I made for my 50th bday!! Do it!! God bless
@@jen3990 thank you! That's definitely something I've been pondering.
God bless to you too 😊
Hey Robot,
Do you have a recommendation for a Piaggio or possible other brand scooter for a tall person. I'm 6'2" 185lbs and moving up from a Kymco Super 9 LC 50cc to a 150-300cc scooter.
Thanks
Good review. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
You're awesome Brochacho!
Ordered mine 2022 its arriving Monday yippee
From Mauritius i have bought one like this piaggio liberty abs 150 in the year 2019 I have a problem with the front shock absorbers oil came out there is no spare parts in the show room of maison de la moto in Mauritius very sad
Hey Robot great review when are you guys getting the BV.400S?
I'm fairly certain I took home the white S model with the top box in the Vid. I have about 1,000 miles on it now and have been happy with its performance so far. Observations, I would look at the Shad & Givi top box options the Piaggio OEM is smallish in capacity and nothing special in quality over the aftermarket (no quick release option either). At 220lb after the break in I have seen 70mph on the speedo (keep in mind its 5mph optimistic via GPS) It will comfortably reach and sustain 60mph however. First service and valve adjustment is at 630 miles, it was quoted at several hours shop time and yes it does take awhile with the body panels for the 10 min valve adjustment. Tedious but not hard or technical, the oil filter is a trifle difficult to reach best to use the replacement with the hex socket end.
The ride, it looses a bit of the "excitement" in town you get with the flickable small wheel light scooters. That said for the commuting I do in zero dark thirty the big wheels are super sure footed and much safer with abrupt road hazards that cause my 10" Buddy to cause sudden sphincter tightening 45mph+. And in the backcountry? On the 60mph bendy to the tight switchbacks... this thing is genuine sport like and holds a line like nothing else scooter... Think small bore sport bike, though while sitting in the living room easy chair and no blast out of corners engine either it does still give a reward. It's lean angle is very un scooter like and though it lacks a side stand, I wont be adding it as its great to heal over without scraping anything.
I added a front usb socket as phone GPS needs a sustained juice source, tedious to add but not out of reach. The fuel gage manages to record the first 2/3 of the tank, its not a large capacity so I tend to use a lot of throttle and 80miles is my comfort limit before refills. One accessory I would add, The underseat (Not for Pets) PRIMA UNDERSEAT BAG, it fits like a custom part.
Thanks for the input, question, what is the purpose or benefits of the under seat bag?
Easy way to take your gear indoors and return it for a ride.
I just picked up a used 2018 Liberty 150 and plan to add a top box, partly for storage for my laptop and other work related items but also as a backrest when riding 2-up. How do you like your top case after using it for a year?
@@donaldlee6760 I did not care for it, went with a Prima basket (the rounded one that latches shut on the rear rack). I had bought it sight unseen, its considerably downsized from the vespa bubble box and IMHO not very good value. I would opt for a quick detach GIVI/SHAD solution instead, should be about the same price. I'll add I love the liberty, of the 4 scooters I have had in the past 2 years its the one I kept for daily use. I'm a flat floorboard fan and for city riding its great.
You don't need to install an USB socket !
Just bring along one or two portable power bank fully recharged with your riding!
Would the Liberty S 50cc be too slow for a 275 lb. guy? Serious question.
I am looking at a liberty 150. I know i want a windscreen. all i have seen are a short one that doesn't look like it does much or a real tall one that is ugly (i miss jc whitney). can you recommend something in between?
The standard blue one with black trim is sweet
Is there only maintenance 620 miles and 6200 miles? Theres nothing between?
Is there a top case like the one shown here to match the Grigio scooter?
As always thumbs up for Robot !
Thanks for the visit
Killer review. This clip is Designer approved ✅
Hi, can you make a video of how to replace the headlight into a led light? Thanks in advance :)
How is a liberty 150 for someone who is 5ft 11 enough room ?
Does this have the same motor as the Primavera? Top speed…65?
Where is the best site for me to get extras for this vehicle upgrades and what not
Where can you get the top case for the white S Model ?
Any knowledge about future coming Maloсshi CDI for Liberty 50 4t 2021 (CD11M)?
I always ride PCX when I go to Bali each year, (limited variety available) power is very limited and good for small commutes, but engine is long term. My Aprilia 250 Scarabeo is awesome.
Thanks for sharing
I’d buy that rig. My mom said I’m really smart.
Just bought a Liberty 2stroke 50 for 200€ ,good stuff with the Runner engine. Dr70 on sito makes about 65mph top ,exhaust port widened a bit.I will keep it next to my ET2 cause the tyres are quite a lot cheaper
Sounds great!
Hello sir , what do you recommend 50cc now?
Yay! Been waiting on this one. Now i wonder if one can add bar ends are they threaded like the primavera? I'm looking forward to the accessories video.
Unfortunately they are not threaded. I was able to order bar ends from Scooter West (ones for a Vespa Primavera)- but had to drill out the holes, and then tap threads (special bit/tool that cuts threads in). It wasn't easy and several curse words were expelled, but it can be done and I think was worth it. Please note, the handle bar is not only not pre drilled/threaded, but it's solid! Obviously for vibration (more dense= less vibration)- proceed with caution.
@@Kriden19008 aw that sucks but good to know thanks for the reply I'm sure it will save some of us from headaches. 🛵
What's the fastest the 50s will go?
Do you have any 2021 bv in stock?
How much cost thin new piaggio 2021 ⭐
Yes- I want one. (will seek out a MN dealer, however)
I’m sold I will buy one !!! This summer 2022
I'm undecided between this piaggio liberty and the peugeot kisbee.
The price is about the same. So, idk which one to do.
New beverly 2021 soon?
I went to the Adly and Piaggio dealship on the same day. The Adly was loud, 90 Db and 2 stroke-I fear I could be annoyed by the noise and if the fumes make me feel as intoxicated as having 6 beer after 6 hrs riding with a bad headache-plus Adly id not much cheaper.
There is no scooter showroom this big in Quebec City-your San Diego showroom looks liike Disneyland!
Robot you’re the best

Any tips about the breaking-in process? Got the 150 S a few days ago. I've been avoiding going over 45 MPH, avoiding full throttle, and avoiding maintaining the same speed for long periods of time.
I'm at about 90 miles now, and around 25-35 MPH I sometimes hear some "grinding" or "crunching" sounds as I accelerate. Does that sound familiar to anyone at all? I wonder if that's normal (always), or as part of the new engine "finding its place," or maybe something isn't right.
I bought a new sh125i, 500 to 600 miles to run in. Check your oil. It's belt drive, can't see why you would have any kind of strange sound. I considered the Liberty but wanted 16 inch wheels front and back. However I still have my Vespa 2014 Primavera.
@@anthonyciantar6015 The scooter has 150 miles on it... Seems fairly soon to check the oil, let alone to have anything oil-related cause such noises.
@@talron7440 not all service people are Robot, what if they didn't put enough oil in? If it's making noise maybe something is wrong. Checking the oil just rules that out as a possible problem. Bikes don't crunch after 150 miles.
@@1960ARC ok, I checked. There's enough oil, and the oil looks nice and bright-colored. I scheduled a service meeting for next week and sent an email so I have a record of what happened. If it's a big deal I'll be sure to return the product (or file a credit card dispute of needed).
@@talron7440 I'm on my 7th bike and the only time I heard a crunch was when the kick start gear lost a tooth. I really hope it's nothing serious !
Free way legal?
Great review Robot, I’m a Ducati 939 Supersport rider and am looking for a cool little runaround and you’ve sold it to me…..unfortunately I can’t pick one up off you as I’m in the UK.
Check out readspeed scooters. They have a medley s but it's 125. Great place. I got piaggio medley s from there.
How are engine vibrations on the scooter?
Very good. At idle, there is the usual single cylinder scooter vibes, but at speed, rock solid.
Most of those piaggio motorcycles, keep the same look , whats the point of getting a new one ?
Nice review. I do not think it is in the same class as the Honda PCX, as that is not step through. The Liberty will accommodate a big shopping bag without a problem. I am very happy with my 2020 Liberty.
Good point!
@@VespaMotorsport Here in Europe the Liberty is comparable to the Honda SH, I don’t know if it’s available in the US
@@Tom-sg4iv sadly we don't get those here
i need one in kenya plz help
nice review. How tall are you? Just to compare with my height. I'm 6'03 or 184 cm tall and I found this model the tallest for a 50cc scooter compared with the Japanese which are quite small for me. Also I like the bigger wheels in this one which is convenient in bumpy roads. Japanese ones have smaller size and wheels and I think is way better a bit taller body and bigger wheels. Problem is Japanese people are small and therefore the designs are oriented for short people. Italians are bigger therefore the design of the smaller scooters are suitable for occidental men too. I think the height of the scooter is a very important deal breaker.
He said 5 8
How does the scheduled maintenance cost compared to a Vespa gts 300?
They asked me 180$ at vespa miami for 620 miles oil change and i changed it for 50$ 😂
@@gltsry8627 They also do a valve adjustment on the first service, so there is that
Hey guys, great video! Where are Piaggio scooters made?
That's a joke right? JHC.
@@MarkAndrewSinnott saw that modern once are made in china...
@@carlmeiner Piaggio high wheel models for EU and NA are made in Italy
Why not the Honda SH mod or I. They are more like the liberty than the pcx.
Not sold in the US unfortunately. Only Hondas we have are the ADV150, the PCX, and the Metropolitan (50cc). I guess the Ruckus if you want to count that too. The Vespa and Piaggio Liberty don’t really have competition from a major player in the US for that style of scooter. It’s a shame.
@@AL_1547 I would have got the Medley in that case. As I wanted the flat floor for putting shopping bag. I went for the SHi because of the larger back wheel and it seems to go further on a tank of fuel.
Thank yuo Beautiful video. Suctiln duct piaggio vespa 50 4 t 2005 LXV CDl without any restrictions l Live In Norwegian ca. Not
The turned wheels looked good on last years. This year's encheapned wheels, not so much. I checked one out at a dealer. They are nice scooters. Though, there's no reason to but the S version anymore.
I suspect that the stock 150cc Liberty might be faster than a stock 125cc Grom. I'd like to see a 185cc kit video, and a Grom race. : )
If Piaggio was smart, and they are not, they would release a 175cc version for America. With a little better fork and 175cc, it would stand out in the crowd of its competitors. A little wider legshield would be make the rider feel better protected, but I suspect that they slimmed it down for better aerodynamics, but then again, because it's a scooter that will spend most of its time going slower, their point is mute.
Perhaps the front fork oil can be changed to something a bit thicker.
Although you say not much 50cc sales, I think soon 50cc sales will go up for one reason and one reason only. Uber eats. That's right UE gives drivers one choice and one choice only for delivering on 2 wheels and that is 49cc. Can't deliver or upload title and registration for anything bigger during signup. Funny thing, I'm in Taiwan delivering on an exotic VVA R15 engine based scooter the USA will never see because company insurance is cheap as chips over here. USA uber would never allow sport bike or big bike delivery, too much of a liability. It's amazing what VVA does to a scooter, takes off like a 300cc gets the gas mileage of a 110cc. Maybe one day USA will catch up and import yamaha 155cc VVA scooters. So yeah I'm looking at two models stateside for UE. The 2021 liberty 50 (is the 2021 Euro 4 or 5? Want to go 80cc kit but thats only for euro 4) and the genuine roughhouse 50. Both can be made to go 50mph but leaning towards the liberty because it will draw less attention and noise, something to consider after modded due to legalities. Also restaurants and customers might appreciate not smelling the two-smoke. Would the 150 engine bolt in to the 50 frame? same mounts no?
2021 but still they don't have rear disc brake
Have been riding various machines since the 60's, I do not see or feel a need for a disc on the rear on this at all. Keep in mind the weight & tire patch area here, the drum is just fine and able to lock it up without issue. Simplicity has some advantage no hydraulic maintenance isn't all bad.
I think the liberty 150 is the best value
I'm sure Liberty has its market and followers and it's a great scoot nonetheless, but as a Vespa aficionado it smacks me right in the nose. I just can't. Sorry :)
liberty s 50 cc slowest 50cc ever existed
