If you're on the market for a powerful scooter, that is agile enough to tackle busy city traffic with ease, as well as powerful enough for inter-city travels on the highway, then the 2006 MY Gilera Nexus 500 may be the right choice for you. This machine is powered by a four-stroke, liquid-cooled, 460cc, single cylinder engine that was mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT), and can produce a claimed 40 horsepower and 43 Nm of torque.
In addition, it boasts standard fittings such as a large, detachable windshield, a dual seat with lumbar support for the rider, an under-seat storage compartment, dual headlights, a small fairing, a center stand, cast-aluminium wheels, a 41mm Kayaba telescopic front fork, a Kayaba monoshock with progressive linkage in the rear, dual front disc brakes and a digital and analogue instrument cluster.
