2019 Vespa Sprint 50 Review [Virtual Test Ride]
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 06. 2019
- The Vespa is to Italia what the Lego is to my Childhood... a friendly reminder of simpler times. For 2019, the Vespa Sprint 50 sees minimal updates for this year and although the 50cc single cylinder CVT driven engine is peppy at times, the lack of power is almost criminal, even in the slowest of city traffics.

#Vespa #Sprint #50cc - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I started on a 50cc and quickly realized it was underpowered. You need a 150cc scooter if you will be facing any hills and want to be safer in traffic even in the city. Everyone told me this when I bought my first 50cc, but opted for the slightly easier licensing. If you only drive on slow roads, it would be fine but inevitably, you need more power and speed in the city. Still a small frame bike but so much better in traffic.
I keep on coming back for more your videos are awesome
Thank you!!
in the seattle area, almost all 2 wheelers will wave to each other, seem to ride together also, we tend to bunch up for safety. actually have made friends from total strangers. (scooter life)
Great video… do you the 2022 review yet? Specs would be good
Duke?!? You brought the classic gloves out of retirement! I missed them!
Hahaha I filmed this a few weeks ago. Maybe I should send you these old gloves?!
I think, without explanation, at the end of one of your videos you should just burn those gloves at the stake Game of Thrones style with the new Gauntlet gloves looking on. It would be epic. It would send a clear message to the rest of your gear to never fail. It would establish you as the clear and dominant leader of your moto world. Just a suggestion.
Thanks for the video. What upgrade would y recommend on the 50??
Hello !
What u think if this Sprint 50cc is ok for two persons frome time to time (weekends) to ride?
Thank u!
Duke personally I would want this 50 mL scooter I've been watching a lot of videos on the types of scooters and I'm definitely wanting the Vespa but the problem is in Clearwater Florida the people that drive the cars are usually a lot of old people that really don't pay attention to motorcyclist or scooter people , So I was thinking about getting a electric pedal bike because at least on the sidewalks it's legal. But I'm thinking of adjustments the cost of the maintenance on both. So I would really appreciate your thoughts about this. Thanks I am a new subscriber Duke.
Yo, Duke. I have been following you for a while, but I lost track a year or so ago, and I didn’t realise you came to Europe for EICMA! I would have invited you on a ride or dinner or something. Hit me up next time you cross the pond. Thanks for the infotainment! Cheers
I started riding again after total left knee replacement surgery and wear right brace bad fall and doctor appoint to now! Trying ride & balance buying other scooter Piaggio mp3 to drive next?
I'm 4'11, do you think I will struggle to ride this?? Thank you!
Great ride ❤ i used to ride motorcycles but i find them to dangerous and heavy. So i turn back to a 50cc scooter (Kymco like 50cc). Its easy
cheaper practical and fun. 😀👍
My favorite video of you is moto camping with S1000RR.
To be honest I had enough reviews. I don't know about other people but I rather want to watch long term review or something like moto camping, something unusual...
I’ve gotten more positive feedback on all these reviews than any moto camping video. I’ll try and film some normal motovlogs once I get some time and a new bike
DukeOfDC thanks
You seem to be nipping along at a fair old top speed ,my question is ,has that bike de restricted ,or is that straight out of the box as we say here in the uk ,i ask because i am under the impression that 50 cc means top speed od 28 mph.many thanks
Just bought the 2021, black
Did you notice that they took down the video of Stephanie riding a Vespa in DC that was on their site ? Sorry to say Motto Washington is just not the same since Stephanie and the rest of the gang there have left, just saying
When I was in the hospital Stephanie offered to take car of my dog and did so. Yeah, she also was always so helpful, not only to me but to all of those that dealt with Motto Washington.They all went out of their way in so many ways.
Thomas Wolfe Was Right: You Can't Go Home Again
The reason why scooters and motorcycles don't really wave at each other is because motorcycles don't really find us as a two-wheeled vehicle they more see us as a bicycle with an engine on it
Miałem dwa chińskie skutery i było tak jak mówisz. Żaden motocyklista( prawie ) mnie na drodze nie pozdrawiał. Odkąd jeżdżę Vespą ( sprint 50) to się zmieniło. Wygląda na to że Vespy wśród motocyklistów budzą szacunek.
I see at least 1 or 2 Polaris Slingshots a week. They're multiplying!
6:15 I was wondering what that thing was, but he noticed the Ducati! 😂
Fun Fact: while considering buying the Grom, I seriously looked at the Vespa Sprint 50. I Grom is orange and I would have got the Sprint 50 in orange too. Okay, perhaps not all that fun, but it is a fact! :)
The hook you pulled out is for your helmet I think. I do believe there is a circular hook for groceries under the ignition key area. I could be wrong.
I enjoy your vids. I don't think you ever did a Triumph Street Cup video? I don't know if there's a 2019 Street Cup, but there is a 2019 Street Twin. I'm just saying. :)
My boyfriend called me a witch for riding this
Witches are so in right now
Would like to get a scooter. But have no experiance at all riding. What would you recomend? I live in Missouri. Would also apperate a dealer recomendation. Thank you.. Just started watching your video's.
Stay with Asian brands like Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, Sym, Kymco for comfort. Vespa is fancy, but with electronic glitches with its Piaggio iget engines like Piaggio or Aprilia scooters.
Can you ride one legally with a regular driver license?
bought one of these + Polini Kit up'd it to 80cc scream on
In the Netherlands we drive 25 km/ph whit this
in indonesia we drive 120kmh with these
In France we drive 300km/h with this
In Finland we don't drive these.
What is the top speed? Because I'm getting a Vespa 50cc but they cannot go any faster than 45km/h by law in the Netherlands
Mine goes 70
@@2tonedripgaming420how did you do it?
It's 2 stroke or 4 Stroke?
4 stroke
I’m in store for a 50 cc moped scooterBut I am needing to go at least 35 to 40 miles per hour, I know most will go 30mph how would I know when I buy one if it will go more speed than 30mph if I ask the person selling it to me will they tell me?
Just check the speedometer to know the max.
Smh for that song and the Spyder lol
It was roughhh
my girlfriend wants me to buy a 49cc (don't remember the brand) scooter that is listed locally...
I am admittedly looking for a vehicle, but I feel like in ND a scooter might not be first choice investment.
You need at least a 150 to get around 35 mile an hour wide open does not do it anywhere. My 150 will go 65 miles an hour 60 easy anywhere
Wish price???
Is 3500 dollar considered a cheap insure?
$3500 is the price for Vespa 50, not that insurance.
whats the fastest does that thing go?
35 mph.
👍
how fast is the vespa 50cc?
Like 30 MPH top speed
It's so cute when you say 3.2 hp
Lmao
I have a gts300 and motorcycles wave at me all the time....
You liked the other one more I can tell
62 miles? No breaking in needed haha
But I'll try and wave at everybody
ya dont buy a fifty for speed, if ya want fast pay for fast and get your endorsement ,,,if ya want simple and cheep and fun get a scooter ,slow down and enjoy the ride
What do you mean not a motorcycle Hahahahhahaha
It's considered a scooter here where I'm from.
Ok sorry have a nice day

$4,000 $99 dollars? Nowhere near worth that much for a 50cc scooter, I really don't care who makes it
4k for 50cc is STUPID.
Vespa is like iPhone - it has a nice design, a good build quality, but the "power for money" factor is pretty low.
Also 50cc and 125/150ccm or even 300ccm Vespas build quality and equipment is almost the same, so production costs are comparable.
In general when you compare build quality of Vespa to almost twice cheaper Piaggio scooters - Vespa wins (even if it is comparison of 50ccm Vespa to 125cm Piaggio): even if Piaggio produce all Vespa scooters.
So the difference is mainly related to the local law: for instance - In Poland I could drive 50ccm without any official driving license, for up to 125ccm my "regular car" driving license (category B) is enough, but for 300ccm I need a regular bike driving license (cat A2 or A). So I advised my wife to pick 125ccm Vespa (which has no speed limit and it has more torque and power): she has only cat B driving license, and for cat A she had to spent an equivalent of almost 1k USD and at least 3-4 months.
