Vespa S150ie 3V
Minimalist and elegant . That impression when you first see the Vespa S150 . Vespa S150ie now presented with new colors and new engine technologies , we feel there is an element that is present sportiness and efficiency . The technology is the engine with three valves ( 3 - valve ) , which is claimed by Piaggio , Vespa manufacturer , in response to a challenge to make the motor engine efficient and environmentally friendly , without sacrificing power .
Design Vespa S is heavily influenced by the design heritage of the Vespa Primavera 50 Speciale or sporty . Lamps Plus box alloy gray color matte black wheels and bears , making it more manly scooter . While the red color on the seats and Shockbreaker looks sporty . Even with a less bright color like this too , another rider still glancing and sometimes asked , " Is this the original color ? "
Vespa colors available in 3V S150ie Titanio Grigio ( gray dof ) , Levanzo Azzurro ( blue dof ) , Rosso Dragon ( red ) , Bianco ( white ) , and most desirable , Linosa Arancio ( orange ) .
Please try to sit . Our testers who plays 165 cm forced to ' tiptoe ' because the saddle height is 785 mm from the ground . In addition, the current seat position feels right foot has gone up , and the setting buttons on the dashboard is quite easy to achieve by the finger while driving .
With a capacity of 154.8 cc and three valves ( two intake valves , one valve out ) , the maximum power produced is 11.7 hp . While torque ( torque ) can be produced by this engine is 12 Nm . Highly qualified to drive the motor with a weight of 114 kg . Moreover , the expert material supplied from a tank capacity of 7.5 liters , and is sprayed into the combustion chamber by electronic injectors .
What's the difference with non- 3V version ? The first capacity increased by about 5.3 cc engine , while about 0.2 hp power boost , and up 0.8 Nm torque . No significant ? Probably. But the peak power achieved faster in the lower lap ( 7,500 rpm vs. 8,000 rpm ) , as well as peak torque . If previously appeared at 6,250 rpm , torque is now already peaked at 5,000 rpm . This is why Vespa Piaggio claims the 3 - valve engine is more efficient .
The motor that you see here has registered 1,500 miles on the odometer 's when we tested , and has added an additional turn signal lights on the handlebars , as well as the mud guard . By always using 95 RON fuel , according manual , still feels spontaneous energy to get out in traffic , and accelerate .
That a wedge is the vibration that arise when such responsibility should be accelerated while being stuck in traffic jams often occur in the capital . CVT transmissions are used as ' shocked ' when I had to pass on the power to the rear wheels .
But try to ride a Vespa S150ie constant 3V , comfort is hard to be matched by any motorcycle . Vibration machine is lost , mono link suspension with helical springs in front and behind the monoshok dual action , was making Vietnam Vespa assembly is stable , though at low speed was loud enough when driving alone . For the record , the rear suspension of violence can set yourself as needed. In addition , the wide tires on the front and rear also contributes to stability .
Fuel consumption ? Pretty good for a motorcycle class ' matic ' 150 cc . We recorded a consumption of 23 kpl for use in the city . Unfortunately, due to time constraints , we have not had time to test it for long-distance touring .
