    Looks pretty neat to me!

    Just a question though, prompted by Rhino62 with regards to the flat floor.

    Is the change to the floor due to looks or is it due to frame changes for strength or something else?  It is gone on the Scarabeo, the GP1, this, and maybe others Hmm

    Non flat floor is normally due to rigidity and where the manufacturer puts the fuel tank. In this case its down low for better weight distribution......

    The Geo has a whopping 14 litre tank ... 13.5 sorry

    I think the smaller Scarabeos (50, 125 and 200) still have the flat floor. The bigger 250 and 500 miss out on the flat floor.

    It's a handsome scoot but not enough shiny plastic for me. I know all scoots (bar the Vespa) are basically plastic but it does nothing for styling when it's so obviously so. That much matt plastic looks cheap to me. But the seat is nice and low and cool detail with a red stitching. Are those 16 inch wheels? They look larger than usual.

    Ditto !

    I am disappointed they have chosen to use so much unpainted plastic,  to me it makes it look cheap, which is sad because the overall design is nice.
