Review

The LML Star 4 S 125 Prestige from 2012 represents a continuation of the classic scooter design, harking back to the iconic Vespa. As a four-stroke alternative in a market increasingly dominated by modern automatic scooters, it offered a different riding experience. Competitors at the time included models like the Piaggio Vespa LX 125, appealing to riders who wanted a retro aesthetic with a manual transmission.

Powering the LML Star 4 S 125 Prestige is a 124.9 ccm single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. This engine produces a torque of 9.2 Nm at 5000 RPM, providing sufficient power for urban commuting. The scooter's top speed is about 83.0 km/h, which is adequate for its intended use. Its weight of 122.0 kg contributes to its maneuverability. The fuel tank has a capacity of 5.50 litres, offering a reasonable range for daily rides.

The riding position on the LML Star 4 S 125 Prestige is fairly upright and comfortable for shorter journeys, although the seat height of 820 mm might be a consideration for shorter riders. The manual transmission requires more rider involvement than automatic scooters, offering a more engaging, if less convenient, experience. The scooter's suspension is tuned for comfort rather than sporty handling, making it suitable for navigating uneven city roads.

The LML Star 4 S 125 Prestige 2012 would appeal to riders who appreciate the vintage scooter look and the tactile experience of a manual gearbox. It's a practical choice for those seeking an alternative to modern automatic scooters, valuing style and a different kind of connection to the machine. While not the fastest or most technologically advanced scooter on the market, it provides a unique charm and a distinct riding experience.
