APRILIA SCARABEO 500 2006 ModelImagine a world of Italian style, innovation and
design, safety and respect for the environment. You’re thinking of the world of
Scarabeo; an inimitable style that transcends passing fashions and symbolizes a
new way of thinking and riding. Scarabeo 500 is a totally different motorcycling
concept designed for easy and trouble-free, safe but speedy commuting and
touring. Scarabeo 500 is the definition of comfort and practicality however long
your journey is. Scarabeo 500 is the latest development of the "automatic
motorcycle" concept that combines the safety, pleasure and performance of a
motorcycle with the easy riding, comfort, protection and practicality of a
scooter.
Scarabeo 500 stands out for its original and elegant design, with a clear
family resemblance to all other Scarabeos but with even more appeal. A large
headlight incorporated in the body and flush fitting direction indicators make
Scarabeo more practical then ever, improve aerodynamics and steering and confer
an unmistakable personality on this large wheel maxi scooter. Great attention
has been paid to the choice of components and materials in line with the best
Italian traditions. Aluminum alloy passenger footrest mountings, top quality
seat upholstery, high tech finish, two tone color scheme, seat cover.
SCARABEO 500 POWER
The high tech 500 cc engine
delivers bags of power and exceptional flexibility, meaning instant acceleration
for overtaking and high speed cruising. And Scarabeo’s exceptional chassis
allows you to make full use of the engine’s generous power output.
Scarabeo
500’s impeccable road holding and precision steering are only equaled by top
performance motorcycles. Wide profile tires and 16" wheels guarantee a sure
footed grip on bends even at high speed. Scarabeo 500 gives you the sensation of
riding a performance motorcycle. Its first class braking system features three
disks (two at the front and one at the rear) operated by an integral braking
system. Controlling Scarabeo’s impressive stopping power safely and smoothly is
child’s play. The left brake lever (for the rear brake) also brakes one of the
front disks. The integral system operates via a proportional control valve that
distributes braking power to suit load. Scarabeo’s unique riding position is the
result of advanced ergonomic studies and combines the superior control of a
motorcycle’s riding position with the comfortable, protected and upright sitting
position of a scooter.
