My 1999 pre-leader ET4
Owned this beastie for nearly fives years now and despite a few hassles with starting/ immobiliser- she's been pretty decent. Great scoots out of the box and like most Vespa auto's - rust is the quickest killer but keep the engines serviced and they run like champs! ;) still can be picked up for sen...

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. Just needs a up-jet carburettor wise and maybe adjust the stator plate timing. It provides a very useful increase in torque and a few extra MPH'S . ;) all the best Paul Tha...

Re: Why?????,this is doing my head in.....
Must be a bad batch of air filters , I know they are two different makes but could they both use the same supplier for the air filter media? (paper) Used to work for a medical supplier making pharmaceutical filters for blood, drugs etc and we'd supply media to other manufacturers or just slap their ...

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

A few years back folk were justifying kits and performance exhausts to keep up with modern traffic speeds.. Friday just gone I was travelling along a busy A road for a dyno, scoot maxing out at 50/55 due to over rich Artic lorries up my arse and being overtaken, blown all over the road The return j...

Re: Standard pipe thoughts

Re: gp150 engine
just removed the clubman exhaust ( casa Anncilotti) and fitted a deadstock standard pipe to my 1970 Gp150 and its made no difference at all to top speed. Gone back to 118 main jet in 22 dellorto- does about 52/53 on flat with GPS .digital speedo . feels like better torque from low revs with standar...
