WENT OUT TODAY had a test ride on a GTS300i vespa i couldnt stop laughing,goes like stink,
i came back to shop and came home with this,

They are indeed a fantastic bit of kit!

Nice! Well done enjoy it. I have to say I never really understood the appeal of the old lamberettas & vespa PXs but the GTS has really grown on me the last couple of years.

my lust for a trad px200 vespa has slowly morphed into a lust for a modern gts/reliable vespa....cant afford a 250 or 300 but might scrape meself a 200gts.?

How far will it go on a tank of petrol running mostly between 65-75mph?

im not sure yet, but a long way, one thing i miss is a trip meter, Why the question?

google reckons about 65 to a gallon so i reckon about 75 at those speeds,

Usually 130 miles before I need to fill up, although I have managed 150 touring. The needle showed way below empty! It uses much more fuel at 75 than 65.

I have a 54 mile round trip commute so need decent fuel range.
Although my PCX does high 90's to the gallon, it needs filled every other day.
I'm looking for something 300cc-ish which will do over 200 miles on a tank.
Looks like a Vespa won't.

it might be down to small throttle openings to get that mileage from a 300cc ish bike

Why not start a topic on tank range on scooters, I think either the Burgman 400 or XEvo 400 (x10) would be the best, but I really don't know, but it is important when touring or commuting in times of fuel crisis.
Is there anything better than the 400's?
My own little Honda Swing could do over 200 miles on it's little 9 litre tank, something out there should do 300+
