Vespas in Kuwait
I was at the Tamiya dealer in Tilal Complex and on my way out I decided to take a different route than usual. So I am driving when suddenly on my right I see all these scooters parked outside a store. So I park the Jeep, go down and realize I was standing outside the Vespa dealer.
Turns out they’ve only been open for 3 months and they’re also the new dealers for Aprilia, Piaggio and Moto Guzzi. If you’re interested, they’re located in the block across from Tilal Complex. If Explorers Base is on your right keep going straight past the intersection and they should be on your right.

perfect :) but not for Kuwait
I used to rent one in Ibiza Piaggio 50 CC where the maximum speed is 80 KM/H and you will never reach it
according to the guy there people are mostly buying it for the challets
save me a trip to shuwaikh and pls tell me how much does a vespa cost?
The one I liked, the green one pictured above was for around KD1,300. There was a baby blue one for around KD900
cute… girls ride these in Phuket alot
“cute… girls ride these in Phuket alot”
hahahaa i aint touching that one with a ten foot pole
looool … nothing els to say really
They are fun for small rides to near by dewania or supermarket …. i personally got my self the orange one and its a blast you zig zag between cars in traffic lights in seconds….. oo you can even cross ( jeser il mushat ) with it…. its great to avoid traffic for small trips not on main highway or streets unless you have 250 cc and above.. they joy riding one is simply un explainable..
I saw a pink one on Display at souq sharq about 2 months ago for a perfume stall. I love the attention paid to the details on these scooters..
The question is, are we going to see guys riding them on the gulf, trying to pick up chicks?
finally!! my dream of owning one is coming closer and closer, do you have any idea if they can hook you up with a vintage one from the 70′s?
Vespas are awesome!! So cool to ride on and unlike regular bikes, they offer lots of protection. I’m definitely checking this out.
I see those bikes every time I exit Tilal. I miss my 1994 Piagio Skipper 150 :(
My father bought it for me in 1996 from Al-Rashed (he was the dealer) it costs us 780 KD.

Good to know Moto Guzzi finally reached Kuwait.. wondering when Triumph Motorcycles will do this step?I ride a Harley and I love it but sadly the HD dealership here in Kuwait sucks!! They have my bike in their garage for more than 6 weeks cause they don’t have basic spare parts in stock!!
It’s really nice to see scooters in Kuwait but it we can’t ride them sadly because of the weather and the streets of Kuwait. Nevertheless, drivers around you!!
Moto Guzzi was in Kuwait for about 3 year, check MV Agusta dealer…
Also Tri-star used to sell Triumph long time ago, but he stopped selling now
speaking of bikes? would a seperate license be required for to ride these?

Yes, you need a 2 wheeler license.
Just have to say this to new riders of scooters,,,, please do not think that you do not need full protection just because the bike is small.The fall is just as bad if u r not protected.
