Those of you who have been anywhere in Asia would be familiar with the strange commuter motorcycles that are pretty much ubiquitous no matter where you go. These machines, referred to as underbone motorcycles, are essentially a cross between a scooter and standard motorcycle. This means that they provide similar practical amenities as a scooter, while being operated in the same fashion as a motorbike.
Outside of Asia and Latin America, underbone motorcycles are pretty much non-existent. In Europe, however, a certain Italian manufacturer seems to have an interest in the popular underbone platform in Asia, and has launched its own version for the European market. That manufacturer is none other than Malaguti, a firm known for its affordable and practical commuter two-wheelers, more specifically, its scooters.
