GS150 kickstart not returning
I've recently bought a 1960 GS150 VS5 that hasn't been started for about 5 years. Before it was sat up it had a £1,900 engine rebuild at Retrospective Scooters so there shouldn't be too much wrong with it. One issue that I do have though is that the kick start doesn't fully return to the correct pos...

VBB 10" wheel conversion
How do I go about a 10" wheel conversion on a 150 VBB? Do I just fit PX forks and a PX engine?

6.5" x 6.5" yellow/black perspex number plates??
Does anyone know where I can get a 6.5" x 6.5" yellow/black perspex number plate made up? I've had them made before but can't find anywhere now. I've got a 6 digit number plate so will fit nicely.

Re: Problems with BEEDSPEED???
Well it's in the hands of my credit card company now and they're going to process a charge-back and dispute the transaction with Beedspeed. I was going to give them to the end of the week to refund me but then I thought why should I bother, they've had plenty of chances to do the right thing and the...

Problems with BEEDSPEED???

I got a call from them 5 weeks ago asking if I was still after a Lambretta long range tank with no cutouts in primer as they had a coup...

Re: Throttle cable
Sorry but I don't agree. The throttle rod in the headset is probably clogged with 50 year old grease, I'd strip it down, clean it up and lubricate it with some 3-in-1 oil. When I've done this and replaced the cable etc the throttle snaps back nicely.
