PGO G-MAX 250
If you're looking for a performance scooter with small dimensions, look no further than the 2006 PGO G-MAX 250!!
With fuel prices at record highs and roads more congested than ever, scooters are becoming more and more relevant, and I predict that scooters will sell in record numbers worldwide from here on in.
More and more people who do not consider themselves bikers are buying scooters to get around on because they simply make a lot of sense. Scooters are easy and fun to ride and really versatile and generally more practical than regular motorcycles. One of the objections people have to scooters in western countries is that they are often too small and slow for larger westerners, and for this reason PGO made a midsize scoot, the G-MAX 250.
PGO is a Taiwanese company that's been around since 1964 and had technical cooperation with Italian Piaggio from 1972 to 1982. PGO is therefore a quality product and is not a mainland Chinese product, but rather a Taiwanese product that has been around since 1964.
The 2006 PGO G-MAX 250 is a midsize scooter that can easily handled by smaller people and is not at all intimidating in it's size. Performance however, is absolutely stunning! The G-MAX 250 will out accelerate almost any car from 0 to 50Mph (80 Km/h) with ease and then go on to speeds in the region of 80Mph (128 Km/h). It is belt driven and has a CVT transmission. The CVT transmission is smooth and seamless and it feels like the scooter is being powered by a large elastic band.
Quality is good, although in my opinion it is still not as good as you find on Japanese scooters, but is still very good. One of the things that scooters are judged on is their practicality, do they have decent under seat storage for example? The G-MAX does, and can easily swallow up a large bag of groceries with no trouble at all.
The G-MAX has disc brakes front and rear and stops well. Handling is also good, although given the scooter's performance, I feel the scooter should have had at least 14" wheels instead of the 13" wheels it comes with.
The scooter is powered by a water cooled 250cc engine and produces 19 Hp. I tested the G-MAX 250 over 3 days and rode it flat out almost everywhere and it returned fuel consumption figures of 26Km/l (3.85L/100Km), 61.75 US MPG, 73.13 Imperial MPG. These gas mileage figures are not fantastic for a 250cc, but I did ride it hard wherever I went, with sensible riding, I'm sure you'll achieve much better figures.
All in all the PGO G-MAX 250 is a good choice for someone seeking a scooter with decent performance without being too large to handle easily. She's a great looking scooter and is a quality and reliable product.
