Please don’t shoot the messenger. Pop icon, Justin Beiber becomes the latest celebrity to collaborate with Vespa on a special edition Beiber Mobile!

Revealed in Los Angeles earlier today the monochrome Vespa X Collection Sprint will be available in 50cc/125cc and 150cc. Justin designed the scooter himself (he’s allowed his own crayons apparently) with a white base colour, flames and JB logo.

Bieber is a Vespa fan and says “The first time I rode a Vespa was somewhere in Europe, probably either London or Paris. I just remember seeing a Vespa and being like ‘I want to ride one of those’. And I had such a great time, just the wind flying through my hair, the freedom. It was fun.” Most people reading this can understand where he’s coming from, although the ‘wind flying through hair’ bit takes some remembering.

Even without the star’s endorsement, the Vespa Sprint is a great modern scooter. It comes with mobile connected full-colour TFT dash, the trademark Vespa monocoque steel chassis and a modern four-stroke engine. The JB special edition is further complemented by the white seat (try keeping that clean on your way home from the factory), white 12″ wheels, exhaust heat shield, grips, mirrors and floormats.

There’s also a matching limited edition accessories collection which includes a bag, pair of gloves and a white helmet with a “Justin Spin” flamed design.
