Stunt-riding is not the first thing coming to mind when thinking about the Vespa Ciao moped. However, it looks like this seemingly harmless vehicle has more to it than meets the eye.. and this Italian teenager really proves that Ciaos can stunt.
There's no telling whether the ECU of the moped has been tampered with and thus having endowed the Vespa with some extra brawn. It looks like the very mounting of the seat makes this scooter easy to send into a wheelie, while its fairly low riding position makes it somewhat easier to control, even by a child.
The kid is obviously talented and knows his ride quite well: one does not simply wheelie off the road in the grass and on dirt-filled paths, after all. However, he could really use some sort of head protection, if he ever wants to make it to the pro level.
