Very informative post. Ninja 150R looks best in terms of design and styling in its segemnt. It is a true value for money bike in comparison to its rivals. Am planning to buy it soon.

I ride a GTS250 ie and have had little to no problems on the highways. Then again i ride quite early in the am and there aren’t a whole lot of cars around. If you’re a good rider and you can go anywhere you want to on the 250, easily keeping up with traffic and in many cases able to keep ahead of it. I can get up to 85 mph in most cases although it is sposedly listed as able to do 76 mph!

In any event, you WON’T be dissapointed with a Vespa, its combination of style, comfort and reliability will be enough to warrant the slightly higher price tag than most other scooters.

I was wondering something about this comparison.. As you make great arguments for the purchase of the Kymco over the Ninja, I appreciate the info. I am currently thinking about getting the Vespa GTS, Kymco Grandvista 250 or People S250, or a 08 Ninja 250R. The main reason is because I commute to work everyday 31 miles each way. I have to take the highway/freeway (whatever you want to call it), so I was wondering which one I should get. I live in MD and i looked for the law on getting a license for scooters but didn’t see anything. Well, would any of the scooters be alright as vehicles on the highway? Safe? Fast enough? Practical for everyday use on a highway?

I know the Ninja is easy to take on the highway. And it also costs 3499. Plus I would have to get a Motorcycle license for it.

Please help me.

I agree totally. This chick in our company bought a 250 Ninja a few months back, and after pondering a bit after seeing 4 scooters parked in the lot at a company meeting, she finally confessed that she might have screwed up. She thought that she would be laughed at for riding a scooter. Time will tell if she makes the switch.

Have fun,
