This was also sold as a Gilera, so Italian origin is secure.

According to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piaggio_TPH it was sold in France as a Gilera, and later renamed to Storm under that make.

So what do we call this? I'd default to Gilera Typhoon - Origin I, made for F seems silly, as it was also available in Spain and Italy under this name.

I found out!

The Storm is two-tone only and always has stickers on it - Wikipedia said so, I looked it up and can confirm - this doesn't. The name TPH was only used in Germany for copyright reasons.

So in the end, Gilera Typhoon, it seems to be the more common version anyways.
