Last time I mounted it to the scoot I used a car window mount and some zip ties and duct tape for extra support. I can't wait to use the camera speedo app. |

My Lance Vintage with the stock engine and the Hoca variator with machined oversized drive face would consistently pass 65 mph per gps however the vacuum fuel pump would not be able to keep up on long grades so you had to back off on the throttle before the fuel level in the bowl got too low or you could risk burning a hole in the piston top. The 250 with the 15" tires will come close to 100 per gps and is very stable on the 15" tires. Aprilia has been telling the world for years that bigger wheels is the way to go on a Maxi Scooter even if its powered by a 150.

Had a full day of serious riding yesterday. Got a call waking me at 6:35 from my nephew. His Roketa busted a belt on the way to work on the other side of the valley and he needed a ride.
Took the freeway, strong winds pushing me across the lane from time to time, kept up with traffic fine. Got him to work, then took the beltway around the valley back home, spotty areas of rain, nice stable ride on the wet roads, but into the wind uphill had trouble staying above 60mph (very strong gusts head-on during that part of the ride).
Gathered tools needed to repair my nephew's scooter, then took surface roads to Scrappy's to buy the new belt. From there I took the interstate along the strip then up to the speedway, wind to my back, no problem keeping up with traffic till I hit the short stretch just before the speedway with a 75mph speed limit, so traffic was doing 80+. Fixed my nephew's scooter, then back on the beltway home, no rain this time, but still strong winds.
Took the freeway back to pick up my nephew after work, his scooter is a BBKed 50cc, so I had to follow him for a while to make sure the repair was ok, then took the freeway back home.
All told I rode close to 200 miles, about 140 of them at highway speeds. I have never felt more satisfied with this scooter, best money I've spent in years!
