    Repeat deal from last year

    The Warehouse had these on a 1 day special last year too.. and they were priced at $2500.
    Dunno how they manage to sell them without being a LMVD, but as someone said earlier here, pick up is from your local dealer. Warranty too no doubt.

    As for reliability, they are powered by the 50cc Piaggio Hi-Per 2T engine and transmission which are super reliable, until people start to piss around with them.
    Unrestricted, they'll do 65kmph max, uncorked, lighter trans rollers and a sport exhaust, they'll do 90 kmph. Get that carb jetting right though, or it'll end in tears.

    Looks like they didn't sell very many. As another poster said, they were sold as a 'Red Deal' last year at $2500 and went real quick. Sorry Aprilia or Triumph NZ or whatever, but you'll have to come up with a better deal than that if you want to shift them. Motorad has that deal going all the time..

    Quite often the better they look the less fun they are to ride and the more needy they are. The big fat ugly ones go off like a rocket.

    The Warehouse have long been parallel importers of all sorts of things: sunglasses, TVs, perfumes, God knows what all, and now apparently motor scooters.

    Their scooter isn't like a "bargain" price though it's only about $200 cheaper than the new Honda Giorno.

    Yeah, totally agree. More bang for your buck if your honest about yourself.. You also get a bigger sump, better lubrication, softer vibration, and reliability when you ride them hard. Usually a full cooked breakfast, too.
