New Vino Pix

[King Vino]

Well here are some pictures of the new Vino. Some neat features include, an alarm and lock, yes it has an alarm, it also has a Xenon backflected headlight. Interesting to note the motor looks identical to the Honda's motor. Other intersting things to note is that the price is remaining the same. But sadly has only drum brakes. I looked at the hi-red image and there are no master cylinder reservoirs. I am however impressed that the cocnept model I saw a year ago is the same as the production model though I suspect the name Bianca is going to be dropped from the production model.

Looks like they are appealing the new model towards women, not a very manly scooter !

I agree- that is the reason I went the Zuma route.

I agree, my wife was just looking over my shoulder, and I'm thinking, "I wouldn't be caught dead on that thing", and she says, "Those are cute."

Thats the cold hard truth...

I'm a girl and I definitely think it is cute. And I'd be more likely to check out a guy on that scooter than most others!

Mandy, You totally had my hopes up until I read "husband". :D

I think it's alright actually! Haha, since when have scooters been manly anyway!? I got one question though, how they gonna put those dumb arse US blinckers on that design? It's gonna look soooooooo stupid! But, thats probably what everybody said when they brought out the current vino haha

Hey, just noticed that the new vino wheelers are cooler. Once they come out we might be able to put em on the old vinos.

It was most likely a Metro you saw, they aren't going on sale in Japan till the fall, and are slated for sale here sometime in late 05 as an 06
