VESPA Cosa Models/Series Timeline, Specifications & Photos
First production year: 1947
The Vespa Cosa is a model of scooter produced by Piaggio under the Vespa brand. It was in production from 1988 to 1993. The series is broadly divided into two generations. The first generation was built from 1988 to 1991, while the second generation (sometimes referred to as the Cosa GS) was in production from 1993. Both version are fundamentally the same, with some minor differences.
The Vespa Cosa was unvelied at the Milan Motorcycle Show in 1987. This Cosa is a direct successor to the Vespa PX series and comes with a new gearbox.
The Vespa 98 Corsa's form derived from the standard production model, but it had a much smaller, bubble-shaped shield and small handlebars. The horn was taken off the steering column cover and the seat is placed far back, so that the rider had to stretch to reach the handlebars. The rear brakes were also retracted to suit the rider's elongated, aerodynamic position.
