Overview

Introducing the 2007 Aprilia Scarabeo 100, a stylish and versatile scooter that perfectly embodies the spirit of urban mobility. Positioned in the entry-level segment, the Scarabeo 100 is designed for riders who crave a fusion of practicality and flair. With its sleek aesthetics and compact dimensions, this scooter is ideal for navigating bustling city streets, making it a popular choice for commuters and casual riders alike. Available in eye-catching color options like Bianco Venice and Blu Main, the Scarabeo isn’t just about getting from point A to point B—it’s about doing so with confidence and style. At the heart of the Scarabeo 100 lies a spirited 124cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that strikes an impressive balance between performance and efficiency. With a compression ratio of 12.0:1 and a bore and stroke of 50.0 x 49.0 mm, this engine delivers reliable power while keeping fuel consumption in check. The automatic gearbox and belt final drive ensure a smooth, hassle-free ride, perfect for navigating tight city traffic or cruising along scenic routes. Thanks to its air cooling system, you can count on consistent performance without the added weight of liquid cooling, making the Scarabeo light and nimble at just 1,905 mm in length and 705 mm in width. But the Scarabeo 100 is more than just its engine; it’s packed with features that enhance the riding experience. The electric starter offers effortless ignition, while the front disc brake with an impressive 220mm diameter ensures reliable stopping power. The rear drum brake, measuring 140mm, complements the front system, providing well-rounded braking performance. With a seat height of 780 mm, riders of varying statures can comfortably reach the ground, enhancing confidence during stops. The 8-litre fuel tank means fewer stops at the gas station and more time enjoying the ride, making it an ideal choice for both short commutes and weekend getaways. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Nimble: The compact dimensions and low weight make the Scarabeo 100 easy to maneuver through traffic and tight spaces.
  • Stylish Design: With its modern aesthetics and vibrant color options, this scooter stands out on the road, appealing to riders who value both function and style.
  • User-Friendly Features: The automatic transmission and electric start provide a hassle-free riding experience, making it accessible for novice riders.

Cons
