Its back! Aprilia's Lightweight Maxi Scooter.

The Scarabeo 500 i.e. has forever been a favourite amongst those that want to combine a regular sized chassis with maxi scooter power. The Scarabeo 500 delivers the best of both worlds.

Having 29 Kilowatts of power in a chassis weighing only 189 Kg means the Scarabeo 500 has a power to weight ratio of just 6.5 Kg/Kw, one of the best in its class.

 

Having owned the 500 myself I know it all too well, the all-round usability and convenience that can be sourced from just one model is amazing. Tour interstate one day, commute around the city the next, its all very user friendly.

A number of factory accessories are available for the Scarabeo 500 i.e., this model range has become an institution in its homeland of Italy. Everything from larger screens, top boxes and tunnel bags being available.

As well, with the increased value of the Australian Dollar the Scarabeo 500 returns with an all new price point.
