If you are a Vespa fan that is new to the scooter world and wants a machine that is able to dart through city traffic and narrow alleys, than the 2009 MY Vespa LX 50 might be the right choice for you. It sports an air-cooled, four-stroke, 49cc, single cylinder Hi-per4 lump mated to a continuously variable transmission, and can produce 4 horsepower and 4 Nm of torque. Visually, it bears strong resemblances with the first Vespa prototype in 1946, and is sure to appeal to the more nostalgic of Vespa fans.
