Touring scooters include the Suzuki Burgman 650 Executive, Yamaha T-Max 500, Piaggio BV500, Honda Silver Wing, and Vespa GTS 300.
Not all scooters are diminutive, lightweight, small-wheeled city runabouts. For those that crave highway speeds but don’t want to worry about messing around with a clutch, touring scooters – or maxi scooters – offer an interesting alternative. Touring scooters are larger than their lower-displacement cousins and can feature engines ranging anywhere from 250cc to 650cc, but they still feature the step-through design common to all scooters. Some of these larger touring scooters are nearly as capable as a full-blown motorcycle, but can be less intimidating for newer riders. Touring scooters also offer the bonus of ample storage space and impressive fuel economy.

2012 Aprilia SRV 850 Review
Our European correspondent recently had a chance to take Aprlia’s maxi scooter, the SRV 850, out for a spin in Porto Ercole, Italy.

2008 Piaggio MP3 500 i.e. Review
The MP3 makes a great ride for “being seen.” This thing turns heads of the young, old, rich and even the impoverished. Save your money, buy a scooter and enjoy your commute to work!

Sure I love scooters. I’m not embarrassed to say it. Any chance I get to ride a new one, I take… but to tell you the truth; I wasn’t overly enthusiastic about climbing aboard the Yamaha Majesty.
