The Piaggio X7 Evo is the ultimate in urban two-wheeled transport, combining the ideal commuter scooter features in one perfect package. The 300cc model fuses the agility, compact size and lightweight frame of a small city scooter with the stability, handling and protection usually found in a much bulkier maxi scooter – all wrapped up in the elegant and distinctive design typical of the Italian brand.

As winter approaches, scooter riders could be excused for feeling smug over being snug with the latest leg covers from Piaggio. Very popular in mainland Europe, the leg covers enable ordinary clothes and shoes to be worn while still remaining warm and dry.

Piaggio offers a range of accessories for the new-look Carnaby designed to enhance the carrying capacity of their big-wheel 125cc scooter. Although the Carnaby is light and compact, space is intelligently distributed too, so that the rider and passenger benefit from a broad, comfortably shaped seat and flat platform that offers plenty of legroom. The under-seat bay is big enough to hold a jet helmet and also contains two side pockets for smaller objects and this can be supplemented by the innovative Easy Bag that attaches to the leg shield. This fully detachable bag is made from a waterproof and tear-proof synthetic fabric that blends in with the interior trim without reducing legroom, priced at £34.99.

Piaggio has introduced a new great value top case, with fittings for its most popular scooters (the Typhoon, Zip and NRG) as well as some Gilera models (the Runner and Stalker). This 28-litre top case has been extensively researched to ensure that it is an appropriate size and shape for 50cc scooter, although it will also fit larger capacity versions of these models. The back of the case is recessed to allow for pillion passengers and it is large enough to accept a full face helmet, without being so big that it looks out of place on a scooter. It is produced in both painted and unpainted options, with model specific fitting kits (including carriers where required) available separately.
