The Aprilia Scarabeo 200 embodies refined design, fifteen years of refinement as a matter of fact.
The seat is nicely sculpted though the padding can be a bit thin.
Room for your insurance papers and perhaps your cellphone and glasses.
The Scarabeo allows for a bit more storage behind the leg shield.
The Aprilia Scarabeo 200 is the middle weight of the series with a 100cc and 500cc version available for the US market in 2008.
The Scarabeo doesn't leave room for much storage. There's room under the seat for a half helmet, but that's about it.

Beautifully symmetrical layout on the Scarabeo's gauges, with one flaw... a predominant km/h over mph speedometer.
