Re: lambrettalocomociones.com

Señor

I admire your courage and determination. I also greatly admire the working hours listed on your website ;) I think I will adopt them for my own starting immediately.

In all seriousness, may you have the very best of luck and success my friend.

Re: Anyone got any news on the BGM tubless rims ?

Essentially - that's the edited version I've posted for the US market, but Mark said it best. There's nothing left to speculate on - all the facts and pictures are out there so let's end the rumors and have a nice holiday :D Originally posted here: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=16289&p...

Re: Anyone got any news on the BGM tubless rims ?

Not really. I'm can't recall if the EU approval process happens in conjunction with development or if it happens after. As with any government process, it takes time. It will add to the cost but in the end it will be worth it. This might be the only safety approved Lambretta product ever?

Re: Anyone got any news on the BGM tubless rims ?

Sigh... Need to clear the air a bit in here... There are no BGM tubeless rims currently, you've never held one in your hand, and they are not alloy. An item listed on scooter center does not automatically make it a BGM product. In fact, the page referenced states the item is made by FA Italia. There...

Re: Can you buy these anywhere?

I'd convert them to bolt in as mentioned - at least on the bottom. Grind out the left over burrs and then start drilling. I've always found the bottom buffers a pain to clip in with progressive springs and damned near impossible while the forks are in the bike.

Re: Rock oil racing castor oil.

Unless you strip down your engine on a regular basis I would say don't get in the habit of using castor. It gums things up eventually.

Re: Rear Hub cone

MB cones are only going to fit the later GP style.

If you get lucky, you make be able to contact Tino and see what he has. I thought he was redoing S1 rear hubs so it would make sense if he also produced cones for those as well.
