Vespa Strapazzatela

A possible explanation for strapazzatela (strapazzate la):

「STRAPAZZATELA」
神聖さを失った冒涜の民がVespa LXを鞭で痛めつけ、重労働を強要、酷使する、そんな過酷な状況にも耐えうるVespa LXをおまえたちも「酷使しろ」と訴えかける。

Still not clear? This may be the best description:

... "The male version featured an irreverent-looking model tempting the viewer to use the Vespa in extreme conditions: "Strapazzatela" (Use it hard)". ... (Vespa: Italian Style for the World by Davide Mazzanti)

And a similar explanation from a different source:


... "The slogan Nuova Vespa LX, strapazzatela (New Vespa LX. Do what you want with it) is an invitation to make the Vespa your own and enjoy it" ... (www.urbanscootin.com)
