Re: Luna Help

Check out Casa Lambretta on facebook , they are just about to launch a large bore exhaust to fit the Lui and it's made to look like a standard Lui pipe

Re: Luna Help

Hi again, just as a side issue over on the L.O.C the Admin (Pete) has created a email address to contact him direct. I thought it might get you a way to join up. Good luck.

Re: Few questions

Hi, i'm not sure what the engine is, I did say I know nothing about Vespa's :oops: . My mate says it's a PX 125 in a PK 50 frame. He bought it like that and that's all I have to go on.
Now I know what the adjusters are for i'll try working on those.
Thanks again for all the replies. ;) ;) ;) ;)

Re: Few questions

Thanks for the help so far fellas.I've got it running but it sounds wooly when I blip the throttle. There's 2 adjusters on this carb, one is on top and the other sticks out the back and is just a brass nut. I presume one will be tick Over and the other three air mixture screw? Which is which? Thanks...

Re: Few questions

It is a pk frame with a px125 engine. The choke is just a small button type set up in front of the carb. There's no side panels and only 1 small lever (petrol) at the front of the frame under the seat. I'm hoping that now I've cleaned out the carb and fuel from the exhaust with some fresh fuel and p...

Few questions

Hi, i'm trying to get a friends px 125 back on the road. I know nothing on Vespa's (only Lambretta's) So my queries are ... Which plug would suit it best? It's just round town and occasional ride outs. Oil percentage? 3% fully synth, or is there a autolube somewhere? And should the air filter sit ti...

Re: Mick Abbey's emporium of speed

WOW I finally got out on the bike this afternoon. With a GPS app on my phone I recorded 65.23mph :D :D :D That little Vega is just amazing, so quick and responsive. I've obviously not run it in and perhaps should have been more patient before opening it up but it just wants to gooooooooooooooooooooo...

Re: Luna Help

Oh brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm pretty sure Armando's have cranks though you have to watch out for the bearings at the mag side , there's 2 different set ups.
