First and foremost, Scooterpartsco.com is run by enthusiasts. We are active Scooterists who ride almost every day. Scooterpartsco.com started over a Vespa Starter Motor. We run a very busy scooter repair shop and when the local Vespa dealer packed it in, we started getting most of the Vespa service. The first time we priced out a starter for an ET4, and then realized it is the same part that was used on a lot of Japanese bikes and is about half the price from them, we decided to figure out why Vespa parts are so expensive in the US. We give options in vespa parts, malossi parts, malossi vespa parts, honda forza, honda pcx, yamaha smax, yamaha majesty, suzuki burgman and performance scooter parts.
