Keeway Vieste 300

The Vieste 300 is the logical step when a 125 starts to feel short: the same big-wheel scooter format and easy handling, but with 25.8 hp — enough for Palma's ring road and for motorway riding without straining.

Its 278.2 cc four-valve single produces 25.8 hp at 8,250 rpm and 22 Nm at 6,000 rpm, with automatic transmission. Disc brakes at both ends, twin rear shocks and 13-inch wheels.

It needs an A2 (or A) licence. If you're coming from an automatic 125, nothing changes in how you ride it — there's just more push out of a roundabout.
