Someone did post previously that Piaggio UK were not going to bring either 125 or ther 500 in. I guess low volume sales are the reason.

Only it's not as fast :cry:

It's a real shame they didn't update the 500cc engine and clutch too.

rtfm, is there are problem with the 500cc clutch? I'd like to try the 500. It's maybe the one bike that would make me trade my burger... :o
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Greg, I think they will in the not too distant future. It's a crucial bike catagory and it would draw buyers in droves!

Yes its certainly a crucial category but it might be a bit expensive to sell in big numbers?
