Granturismo 200 L

2005 Vespa Granturismo 200 L Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Vespa's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2005 Vespa Granturismo 200 L pairs a 198 cc (12.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 20 HP (14.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox. With a specific output of 101 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the Granturismo 200 L measures 138 kg (304 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (6.9 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,395 mm (54.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 119 km/h (74 mph).
