The Cadillac of all retro scooters…
Feb 2nd, 2010 by Leo
If you like retro scooters then you might have heard of this little company called Genuine that’s been importing brand new PX150’s made in India to the U.S.
The problem (for some) was these old school scooters used old school 2 stroke engines that spewed more pollution into the air than several of the largest SUVs (running at the same time). That didn’t stop the scooter faithful (outside of CA) who loved the odd scooter-shift (you clutch AND shift with the left hand, the left grip twists to each gear), the metal unibody construction, and the classic styling… but there have been credible rumors going around that Genuine was coming out with a 4 stroke 150cc version of the Stella that would pass emissions in California (and anywhere else in the US)… Here’s a quick review.
Well, news has it that the Stella has passed California emissions testing, and is getting ready to go on the market in the U.S. So grab your retro helmets and goggles and head to the nearest Genuine Dealer! Too bad BrooklynBretta (Genuine dealer in Brooklyn) isn’t around anymore to see it…
