Nothing to write home about off the line, a Genuine Buddy would rocket ahead of a Fly, but more than adequate. Power delivery is smooth and even throughout the speed range with no dead spots. The Fly will easily keep up with traffic and gives enough ooomph up to about 50 MPH. Getting the rest of speed capability out of the Fly took a bit.
Handling is very good thanks to a firm suspension and steering geometry perfectly suited to the size of the scooter and its twelve inch tires. Some other riders I have spoken with found the suspension a touch harsh, but I like a firm ride. The ground clearance runs out long before the handling capabilities of scooter reach their limit.
The center stand hits first and often during spirited riding. Braking is more than adequate. The strong brakes and good suspension contribute to drama-free sudden changes in direction and speed when the idiot in the VW in front of you is too busy texting to actually drive. The Fly was a great deal of fun to ride and did everything I asked of it.
My daily ride includes about 25 — 30 miles of streets and parkways with posted speeds up to 45MPH. One of my concerns with Piaggio products overall is in the fit and finish department. I have found miss-matched fasteners, misaligned body panels and low quality plastic and operational components on past Piaggios. The Fly shows what Piaggio can do when they try. The tolerance on seams is tight and uniform. The body panels line up perfectly, appear to made of high quality materials and are beautifully finished.
The glove box door opens and closes without immediately going out of alignment as on previous Piaggios. The overall look of the Fly is, in my opinion, gorgeous.
Modern, functional, and elegantly crafted, both share superior performance, modern Italian styling, and comfort. Technologically advanced, the Fly inherits Piaggio's tradition of combining safety, reliability, and practicality with an eye-catching design. Light, compact, and agile, the Fly is easy to use, simple to park, and offers excellent power-to-weight ratio for enhanced performance. The 12" wheels and large, tubeless tires also contribute to greater stability and agility in traffic, and the low seat is perfect for riders of all heights.
Stopping was achieved via mm disc, 2-piston floating caliper in the front and a mm drum in the rear. The front suspension was a 32 mm telescopic hydraulic forks while the rear was equipped with a hydraulic single shock absorber, spring pre-load adjustable to four positions.
The wheelbase was With classic Italian style and top comfort, the Fly features telescopic hydraulic forks and 12 wheels with large tubeless tires for easy handling and safety on both urban and uneven roads.

The motor is stronger than the average , feels great and sounds awesome. The only problem I have with it is the cheep chinese tires they stuck on.
Here you go, bro Is this the same PGO that used to make Vespas under license? PGO has been around since and worked with Piaggio from It appears they made P-series clones well after that, as well, but apparently no longer make any Vespa-like scooters. Taiwan, unlike China, has a fairly good reputation for quality. Kymco and TGB are both well-regarded, legitimately-distributed manufacturers, and PGO scooters, despite strangely not being sold domestically in Taiwan, are equally well-regarded and sold worldwide, even racking up a few awards lately.
The first question I asked at their booth was? What does P. I am an American after all and those letters must mean something. The response was? PGO makes the word? Ok, I? It might be a chicken-and-egg sorta thing.? What are these new scooters? The Black Cat 50 is based on the wait for it My Bu Bu? So in both cases, renaming was pretty much essential. Nothing, apparently, Stella sales are still going very strong and the PGO deal is a separate deal that will have no effect on the LML deal.
