Maxi scooters of the 21st century


Maxi scooters were initially designed for long distance journeys offering ultimate comfort, ease of use and large storage facilities. Like anything in this day and age things grew quickly and people started to notice the sports bike like handling and high speeds that could be reached on these relatively large machines.


With major brands like Polini and Athena jumping on the tuning aspect of things the 'Trofeo Nazionale Maxi Scooter' was created giving people the opportunity of true racing on a maxi scooter. The main scooter of choice in the racing scene has mainly been the Yamaha T-Max 500 with its amazing handling and brakes not to mention a standard speed of around 100mph and much more once a few Polini performance parts are fitted. With the cost of car insurance rising and extortionate fuel costs maxi scooters are becoming more popular as people’s initial choice of transport to work.
