Re: Running up that hill!
Hiya, a useful and easy update for a PX125 engine is a 150cc top end, straightforward to fit , uses the same exhaust and carb.

Re: Lambretta Li150 Vibration/Noise at high rpm
worn out top end? piston to bore clearance way out? bad rebore? have you pulled the chain cover off to check to see if anything is loose, slack chain etc . Might be worth a view. Paul
