Power to Weight Ratio

[sean brady scooters]

ok ok ,sorry for the misleading hypothetical weights,perhaps change them to 10 stone/20 stone for more realistic results...

, how much power would the Lambretta need to have the same performance as a 25 bhp Vespa?

25 bhp Vespa? A rare snail indeed.

Now you can see why making a fast smallframe is cheap.

Not so rare anymore, tis the age of the smallframe didn't you know :baddevil:

When done right and because of how light and small they are smallies can be fast as fook and mental to ride

I get much more of a buzz from my smallie than I ever did from my 30bhp (Chalkies Dyno) Lammy and its not even set up right yet.

Smallies get a BIG thumbs up from me

Simple really- less pies, more speed!

at 6'4" I feel a bit silly on a smallie though

Stick a filthy auto engine in it.. Then it would look unnaturally tall/odd.

At 6'4" you just look a bit silly full stop!

Mate,was on a rideout last Sun and when you see the parkas with targets on,lights mirrors etc a tall bloke on a smallie is no worries.Go for it it.If you think you look silly,think how the Lammie owner will feel when you blast past him!!
