Rider Profile

Best ForSuitable for beginner and license-appropriate riders, including those new to two wheels, thanks to its fully automatic transmission and manageable power.
PurposeBuilt primarily as an urban commuter scooter that can stretch to light regional trips, not a performance or long-distance touring machine despite the 'Touring' name.
Rider FitLow seat height and light dry weight make it accessible to riders of most sizes and shorter inseams, with easy footing at stops.
CharacterA refined, classic-styled Vespa with smooth, torquey low-end delivery, effortless CVT operation, and a premium, comfortable ride around town.
Not Ideal ForNot a fit for riders seeking high speed, aggressive cornering performance, serious two-up long-distance touring, or any off-road capability.

2021 Vespa GTS 125 Touring Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2021 Vespa GTS 125 Touring, with a moderate knee angle of around 105 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
