  • Piaggo Fly 150 in AZ
    By  (I am an Owner) on Oct 18, 2009

    Not bad... It has a Smoooooooth ride and great handling but the plastic scratches really easy...and sometimes it is hard to start...but a good looking moto with nice acceleration.

  • Fly 150
    By  (I am an Owner) on Jul 23, 2009

    Overall we are extremely happy with this scooter. It runs great and pulls great to 50, then it is slower to 60-65 top speed. Ride and handling are very good. Brakes are very good. The only minor complaint I have is I think the seat is a little to hard.

  • Would I buy it again?...maybe.
    By  (I am an Owner) on Jul 15, 2009

    Bought the bike in Dec '07. Rode the first 700 miles in the rain. It came with tires not rated for 55 mph so it shook like crazy, but that was resolved when the tires were replaced. I've driven it harder than it was designed for, carrying 300 pounds full out from Bellingham, Wa to Bandon, Or, twice. ...

  • FLY150 Quality Problems
    By  (I am an Owner) on May 16, 2009

    My Fly 150 broke down less than 1 week from purchase. After several battery replacements (and being straned several times) the dealer replaced the stator which solved this problem. Then the transmission belt was defective along with a leak from the front forks. Not happy with Piaggio quality control.

  • Happy owner
    By  (I am an Owner) on May 12, 2009

    After driving over 2000 miles on my Fly 150, I'm pretty happy with it. I have on occasion had some rough starts with it. Eventually I opened the battery compartment under the seat and jiggled the cables and haven't had much of that problem since. The dealer told me sometimes the battery may need ...

    Handling is exceptional, in my opinion. At first, I found the shocks to be rather bouncy, and sometimes I would bottom out when going fast. Again, the dealer helped me resolve this problem by showing me how to stiffen the rear shocks. Piaggio even supplies the tools to do this. They were contained in a bag tied underneath the seat.

    Now my scooter rides wonderfully and I don't bottom out any more. I've seen many complaints about this on the web, so I thought I'd pass this info along for others. All in all, I think it was a good buy.

  • Great Scooter for the City
    By  (I am an Owner) on Apr 22, 2009

    I own 4 scooters... 2 Piaggio typhoons, 1 vespa, and a recent purchase of the piaggio fly 150. This scooter rides really well even with two people on it. Descent pickup and rides very solid. I def. recommend this scooter for the city.
