Perfect, comfortable, and cheap – I'm driving a Piaggio fly 150 3v, since 2018, 3 years 60k and scooter still really good. 7 lt tank, big and wide tires, really safe in rain, heavy weight so good when is rainy and windy. belt must be change every 12k but I did 20K last belt and rollers and scooter still riding normally. Oil every 6k, that's perfect! Just some changes, like leg… Read more

stand, some lights, panel lights, battery still working since 2018, amazing! and I riding every days of the year. tank is 7lt but maybe 6lt without the emergency petrol, any way its enough to don't stop to much in petrol stations... now at 60k i need to refill with a little bit of oil every two or 3 weeks to make sure that motor its good and full, but nothing expensive, any big container of cheap oil 10w40 work in scooter with dry clutch. does not need 4t oil because clutch its outside of the motor, dry clutch. oil filter every 2 oil change. spark and clutch oil ever 20k. Cheap! changed the rear shock as well at 60k, 100aud in ebay, easy to change.

Really good scooter, service its a little bit more expensive than 125cc but, of course its a better scooter, and reliable for size, motor, 3valves, and comfortable drive. piaggio: quality parts. high speed 105km. down road, 97km flat. with mobile app not speed meter. tires pressure 38 rear, 32 front. to use with other person or carry food. Scooter its really good when you ride and turn at high speed. piaggio fly 150cc ie 3vales year 2017!

My joy! – I have had my Piaggio 150 Fly from brand new just under a year ago and I am totally in love with this bike. Only one service so far and not another for another year (not sure why others have complained about too often servicing), $7 to fill up and getting over 200kms out of that is brilliant. Ridden in the Hills and kept up with bigger bikes than… Read more

mine superbly and around town it’s the best commute. I could not be happier with my bike and whilst I haven’t had a pillion on the back yet, I think she’ll do very adequately. Not heavy for this girl, very reliable, tons of storage with my top box as well. Looked at Vespas but for the price, this is the ducks!

Great little scooter – I've had my Fly for 4 years now and I couldn't be happier. Admittedly it's only done 2570 km as I use it just around town to give the car a rest and to give me a bit of a thrill. It's nippy at lights, steers extremely well and motors along at 80-90kph. I like the look of it too. I have the 2 tone light brown/dark brown. The storage under the seat… Read more

provides plenty of space for odd things and I often carry a full grocery bag using the hook on the foot platform. I guess my only gripe is the digital clock dropped out after about two years and by the manual, the front dash has to be removed to replace its battery. Nevertheless, the Fly 150 is a terrific scooter race around on.

Great commuter – After doing lots of research into what scooter to purchase to suit, which would involve riding back and forth to the city from home (15km) each day and getting around the beaches on the wkend. I felt a 125 - 150 cc on any scooter would suit me fine and after seeing a great condition black Piaggio 150 ie 2012 model on Gumtree I made an offer and… Read more

purchased it the same day. After riding constantly for a whole week my review is only based on 100km. Firstly being used and already 5000km on the clock I would assume all the small mechanical things have been ironed out. The glove box pops out and it can hold my phone, wallet and keys so you don't feel restricted when sitting down. Under the seat I can fit my visor type helmet (not a full face).

I filled the first tank with $6 premium unleaded so just over 7L, i've been told a full tank lasts about 125-135km, which means a fill up about every 10 days.

The first time starting in the morning takes a few seconds longer, once its been started each additional time starts up straight away.

It has great power to escape the traffic lights and get ahead of the car. It gets from 0 - 60 in less than 5 seconds. I have driven on very windy conditions and didn't feel unstable going 90 on the road at this time. It had also stormed an hr before yet the stability and grip were still great! It's small enough to weave in and out of traffic with great control going slow. The lights are very bright and beam far enough for anything to see me coming and lastly it looks great.

Very happy with my Piaggio and would def be keen upgrading in the future to a 350 Beverly if I ever require long distant travel.

Great scooter for the price – Had this bike for about 5 years now, almost 30,000km on it, still goes strong, no major issues. It's light, easy to manoeuvre, costs nothing to run. Just make sure you change the timing belt every 10,000 km, otherwise risk it blowing up while you ride. It's my first bike, so can't compare to others. Highly recommended.  Show details

Let me down most of the time – I bought mine a year ago it was second hand approx. 9,000km, had to had service 4 times in 1 year even didn't ride long distance and never stopped being broken. It's also really heavy bike for ladies, hard to handle especially when it's windy. Had really bad experiences with that bike and ending up selling it.  Show details

A great little scooter – Since i was 17 years old and could get a licence i have had many scooters (mainly honders) so far i have not had any problems (except for the brake system) as my previous scooter had a foot brake. Still putting my foot down looking for the scooter to stop. Fortunately, the back brake pulls me up until i realize the front brake is on the r/h… Read more ·  1

steering column this scooter has a very fast getaway a smooth ride. Only fault if you could call it that is the box on the back rattles otherwise, economical and fun to ride.

Piaggio Fly 150 2013 – Overall good little bike if you are travelling shorter distances in the metro area. Cheap to buy, enough under seat room for helmet and other gear. Service is expensive and too often. I travel 80 km per day to work and back. Every 2 days I am at the petrol station filling up, tank too small. Half of my travel is on the highway, not so great for… Read more

this bike. Wind is a big problem, top speed no wind 110 km, with wind between 70-90 km depends on how strong. Lacks power to get out of trouble, terrible in the wet I came off once, brakes are no good in the wet unless you travel at 40 km. Just found out that the battery is hard to get too as I wanted to charge it. You almost need to take most of the front of the bike apart.

Two years and happy – My first scooter bought in 2012 so didn't really know what to expect. 6,500km later and am really happy with the decision. Super cheap to run. Does 80kph very comfortably and will get up to 110 but not what it's designed for. The 2013/14 model looks even better in design. With top-box you can carry a reasonable amount of stuff. 7L tank will get… Read more ·  1

you over 140km. Only issue is the clock stopped working about 6 months ago after a downpour and I miss it more than I thought. Enough power to get you out of trouble and good pick up st lights. Cheap. Handles well. Good acceleration. Indicator warning too soft.

Great for scooting around town or locally – Great little scooter to go around locally with. It works well for short commuting too but is not built to go 100 km/h so city and local roads is where it belongs. 3 months in to the ownership after buying it new it still feels solid mechanically and fit wise. The glove box does not have a premium feel to it but its not bad. As always you want more… Read more

power after awhile so before you buy ANY scooter drive one for an extended trip so you know if this is enough for you. For a 150cc scooter this one is great. Under seat storage is good for a small scooter and there is the option of fitting a larger box on the back... Reliable, quality, fuel efficient, handling, under seat storage, cheap to run Front suspension is a bit soft / short travel, glove box ok but not premium fit and feel.

Not Bad at All! – Needed a second vehicle to get around and a car was too expensive. This however is dirt cheap and fun to boot! 3 months in now and I'm really enjoying it. It handles well, runs well, and looks good too. Have had no issues with reliability and serviceing is cheap also. It also has good storage for it's size. It's not super powerful or anything… Read more

and is just enough to get you away from traffic at the lights. But it's made for zipping between cars and parking in those tight spots. The headlight definitely needs to be more powerful as cars can't see you nor can you see the road at night. I had upgraded mine within the month after I got it because of a few near misses where cars didn't see me. Also, a larger fuel tank would have been good to get 300-400kms instead of just 200kms but is it frugal never-the-less. Reliable, frugal, looks, cheap, and fun. small fuel tank, dim headlight.

Fantastic scooter for the price – Good all round scooter for the price. made in China which is not a bad thing as all scooters are now days except for Vespa. I paid $3300 on road brand new, so why would you buy a Chinese branded scooter? Handles very well and the brakes are adequate despite having a rear drum set up. The standard tyres are OK and grips well to the road.… Read more

Performance is impressive and will accelerate to 110 km/h on the flat and 120 km/h down hill. I have the factory top box fitted which is a must have accessory, especially when you go to the beach or shops. Under seat storage is good for a half face helmet and a full face helmet will fit in the top box. The only down side is the front suspension which is a little too soft and lacks travel.

Italian technology and pedigree for a very reasonable price and i believe the best value 150cc scooter in Australia. Inexpensive, reliable and good performance Poor front suspension, lack of travel and far too soft
