Scooters are undoubtedly the most popular mode of transportation here in the Philippines, and there is no shortage when it comes to available models to choose from. The only thing is, these models usually range from 110 to 150 cc in displacements.

For those who want a bigger and more powerful scooter, there might be a new contender on the market that will bear the Bristol Motorcycles logo.

It features 1950s-inspired styling. It harks back to classic American cars that embraced the design movement and boast of rocket ship-inspired features like cone-shaped warheads and wings. Just like those cars, it even comes with an elaborate front grille. It has whitewall tires to match.

Despite the vintage styling, it comes with LED position lights, premium upholstery, front and rear disc brakes, and even an integrated rear rack.

Powering this 300 scooter is a Piaggio-designed 278 cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine. It churns out about 24 Ps of power and 23 Nm of torque – quite similar to the Vespa GTS 300. It's claimed to be capable of reaching speeds of more than 120 kilometers per hour. Its fuel tank capacity is 10.5 liters which should give it some respectable range.
