Adventures of a Scooter Newbie - Luci (the Li150) and me Pt1
This is just a short series of posts highlighting my little Scooter Odyssey in the hope it can give some pointers to others. So my very first scooter. I knew I wanted a Lambretta, I just didn't know which one, except I preferred 60's Italian style. I'm not a mechanic, but I've tinkered with old VWs ...

Whilst I was looking there was a TON of ads on that site which were bogus - I'd stay clear of the whole thing as they clearly don't have much of a screening process for scams like these. There's a facebook page which echoes items for sale and they tend to be at least sussed as being legit. https://w...

First scoot (Lambretta) which model is best for a newb?
Yep, that's the plan! The A1/A2 classifications are crazy tho. I could "learn" on a relatively powerful 125 but be unable to learn to ride a 150 scoot on CBT which is way less than 14bhp! Why do CCs even come into it surely it's all about the power and weight? Anyhow I have Stickys book an...

Re: '63 Lambretta Li 150
Cheers Daggs will do. Just discovered that my non working rear light is because someone used a couple of wood shims to hold the bulb in! It's quite loose so I presume wrong size bulb has been bodged in

Re: '63 Lambretta Li 150
Thanks for that. Perhaps it's original home in Britain wasn't too far away from me in Taunton then? I concur with not feeling the love for the redness too. The levers are off already & the mudflap won't be far behind. I'm not massively keen on the badge on front mudguard. It's plasticky and appe...

'63 Lambretta Li 150
http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/04/084b7f28c904820adc09e7c4e9842043.jpg Thanks for all the advice on here, I've managed to find my first scoot.
