Named after the late racing legend Marco Simoncelli, this sleek scooter pays homage to his vibrant personality and competitive spirit. With its aggressive styling and race-inspired graphics, the Runner 50 SP stands out in the crowded scooter market, appealing to those who crave both style and function in their daily commutes. At the heart of the Runner 50 SP lies a dynamic 49.3 cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that produces a spirited 5.40 horsepower at 6250 RPM, delivering a lively ride through city streets and winding roads.

The advanced upside-down telehydraulic front fork suspension and a rear hydraulic damper with a co-axial helicoidal spring provide a balanced ride, absorbing bumps and delivering stability at speed. The superior braking system, featuring a 220 mm front disc and a 175 mm rear disc, ensures confident stopping power in various conditions. With both electric and kick-start options, you can easily fire up this vibrant scooter, ready to hit the road in style. Available in striking red, white, and green, the Runner 50 SP captures attention wherever it goes, embodying the spirit of Italian motorsport heritage. **
