Re: MOT Exemption from today

My view for what it is worth, The less engagement I have with the Government the better, especially when it is to do with me pottering about on my old shopping bikes. In a free country like ours, surely we only want laws that stop us all doing things where there is a very good reason for it. So for ...

MOT Exemption from today

Hi all
Well despite my scepticism my Lammy just went from SORNed with no MOT, to legally on the road at the press of a button by the lady at the post office. Rode the Vespa home, straight out on the Lammy, felt great. Today is a good day.

Re: CASA Performance V-Special...

I have to admit 30+ years ago when I was their age I didn't think much of pre LD Lambretta's, so perhaps like me, their tastes will refine over the years.....

Re: POLICE MOBILE DYNO

I'd love to get pulled up on the VB1 and sidecar, I can just imagine it, 'How come if this is a 150 like you say it is, it is not even making 3hp?' Still as it appears it takes three of them to operate the machine, at least there will be someone on hand to lift up the sidecar wheel!

Re: Vespa GTV - Sei Giorni - Ltd Edition

Just ordered mine. Interest free over 5 years, £84 per month, can't be bad. This is my third brand new Vespa and I have just realised that I seem to get a 15 year itch, purchase dates are all in September, 1987, 2002, and 2017, spooky. Looks like 2032 will be the next one.. High performance Electric...
