Several years before we made the move to scooters (in 2013), we were at our friend's dealership, and while he and I were talking, my wife was "browsing"... she saw a Vino 125 scooter and thought it was the "cutest thing ever." Joan asked about it, and my buddy had a salesman roll it out so she could ride it. I asked, "Will it handle two up?"
My friend said, "It will barely handle one up. It's a dog. Have her look at a Zuma instead - it's peppier and has fuel injection." My wife looked at the Zuma and proclaimed it too ugly to consider. We took the Vino out two-up and he was right: it was crowded and painfully slow. We passed on it. Must have been 2009 or so, because that model had been discontinued.
I had forgotten all about this. My wife did "plant the seed" of getting a couple scooters 4 years before we actually did. In 2013, we bought a pair of Honda PCX scooters, and they were fun and peppy - enough so that it kept us interested in riding.
Just tossing that out there if you are comparing anything current to the Vino.
I considered a Burgman 200 at one time (to replace the PCX), but the dealer we went to was the very definition of a "stealership." (They advertised the B200 for a great price, but was over TWICE that amount to get it out the door!) I bought that first Vespa a couple months later. The B200 was comfortable and plenty of storage under the seat... but that girl has one really wide back end.
