Fresco U bend

Hi, I need a Fresco U bend. But they've stopped making them I believe. Rayspeed says if I take my exhaust over and leave it with them, they'll make me one. Does anyone know if anyone has one ln stock. I e mailed Saigon Scooters but they don't have one. Thanks

Re: Lambretta Speedo Cable

I've never had any trouble with any speedo cable as long as all is right in the drive end. Strip the hub and check worm and drive are messing okay and nothing untoward in the bush. Check olive is seating correctly. Make sure you've got a good clean sweep on the cable where it enters the hub. Did yo...

Kick Start Problem Runner Engine

I think the part that is worn is called a “Kick Start Engagement Gear Washer” or a “castle washer”. Does this look worn to you and need replacing? Would I also need to replace the “kick sta...

Re: Lighting Problems No Front Or Rear Lights,
