Must be getting old.......don't ban me. !!! - DILLIGAFF - 12-10-18
Not sure if its nostalgia, boy's toys, aversion to walking uphill or just novelty value................but I really fancy one of these.

With those old Vespa's, a big part of the appeal was tinkering with that little motor behind the side fairings.
Tuning the engine/exhaust note too. 
mokinA silent... electric... Vespa... loses alot of appeal for me (thinking nostalgia).
However the young hip guys and girls will prefer this, over a noisy motorbike, for its clean appeal (no smoke, noise, fuel, even servicing will be no hassle).
That's a nice looking bike though. Quite sporty.

Reckon you could still fit a peg and a bit of plastic for the wheels - should give you the sound you're after
