They tend to be bikes with low miles and priced as if they are showroom new. Some are listed as priced "firm". The sellers are either dreaming or waiting for the perfect sucker.

I rarely backup piaggio products, buttttttt. I've seen multiple kymco throttle bodies that needed warranty, never a piaggio one. Also, ride ANY People 250 or s250 and let your hands off, friking speed wobble so bad it'll throw you off the bike. Just sayin!
