Accessories for the Aprilia Scarabeo 150

The Aprilia Scarabeo 150 is a scooter suited to everyday trips through town as well as journeys beyond it. Riding in traffic means responding to junctions, queues and frequent stops, while keeping an eye on vehicles approaching from behind. That makes brakes and mirrors particularly relevant to the way this scooter is used. The accessories on this page focus on those two areas, rather than on extras that play little part in a typical ride.

What riders usually fit to the Aprilia Scarabeo 150

Think about where you spend most of your time on the Scarabeo 150. A short commute with repeated stops places different demands on your attention from a more open-road journey, but both call for a clear view of the traffic and measured changes of speed.

• Brakes: town riding rarely lets you hold one pace for long. Crossings, turning vehicles and traffic lights all mean slowing down or stopping, often several times in a single trip. Brakes therefore deserve attention if your Scarabeo 150 is part of your daily routine. They matter just as much when you leave town and need to adjust your speed for a bend or a junction. Braking is one of the accessory brands represented here.
• Mirrors: in busy streets, knowing what is behind you helps when you turn, pull away from the kerb or change lanes. On journeys outside town, they also help you keep track of vehicles travelling at different speeds. For a scooter used in both settings, the view from the mirrors is worth considering in relation to your usual riding position. HIGHSIDER is another brand featured among the accessories for this model.

This page covers the Aprilia Scarabeo 150 from 1999 to 2004. Knowing your scooter's year helps you narrow down the relevant parts; how and where you ride then helps you decide whether your first priority is braking or the view behind you.
