The 2024 Vieste 175 boasts an impressive array of features designed to enhance both safety and ride comfort. Its robust steel tube frame is complemented by a telescopic front fork and dual shock-absorber rear suspension, ensuring a smooth ride over various terrains. The scooter's braking system includes a single disc in both the front (240 mm) and rear (215 mm), providing reliable stopping power when needed. Additionally, with both electric and kick-start options available, the Vieste 175 ensures that you’re always ready to hit the road. Riders will appreciate the included windscreen, which adds an extra layer of protection against wind resistance, making longer journeys more comfortable. **
