Piaggio X7 Evo 300
Replacing the successful Piaggio X7 250, the X7 Evo 300 is very much the evolution of the model in a sought after category. Initial impressions suggest the significant boost in torque and the lowering of the rpm at which maximum horsepower is developed, is the only change. But by looking beyond this welcome and obvious change there is a host of other changes, all designed to ensure the evolution of the X7 into an even better scooter. A revised front mudguard now hugs the wheel throughout its suspension travel. It provides better management of road grime and improves highway handling by reducing the amount of air that can slip under the guard. The result is improved stability. Other subtle changes abound including a new textured seat cover material, a reshaped seat to improve comfort for both rider and pillion, a top box ready rear carry rack and new colours.
Piaggio's excellent Coded key immobiliser system is now included on the new X7 Evo 300 and is designed to thwart petty thieves by allowing the scooter to operate only when the correct key is used and the correct code is detected. Additional security features include a steering lock, a security cable locking point and a large lockable under seat storage space.
