The moped-licence friendly AJS Barletta 50 scooter was launched earlier this year, and now it has been joined by a larger-engined version to make it more suitable for commuting. The Barletta 125 combines retro styling with modern features such as LED lighting, a USB charging port and a high-security ignition lock. The Euro 5 compliant air-cooled 125cc motor pumps out 6.2kW (8.3hp in old money) and, thanks in part to the svelte 113kg kerb weight, is capable of 122mpg. Storage under the seat provides a place to stash a helmet, and there is the rear rack, which doubles up as a grab handle for pillion riders. It comes in orange, white/blue or white/black for an SRP of £2099 +OTR.
