Nice, but they are external vents. If you look at the photo, the other ones fold in.

That bike belongs to my good friend Deb Warwick and was built by her and her Chap Steve Conneely who ran Interscooters in Coventry for many years.
His work is outstanding and more than a few hours into the little details on that scoot.
Will be up for sale soon no doubt as Deb never keeps anything for long..except Steve to build the next one!!

I have vented my panels and added a scoop and whilst i really like the look im not so sure i would have done them if i had known how much work they would be, lots of fabrication, filler and swearing.... :D I saw this scoot and thought the panels and light were really well done. I think the GP panel has been smoothed prior to the vent being put in and thats a lot of work on its own. If you have the time and skills go for it, if not then make sure your pockets are deep..... :D

Couldn't agree more, the majority or either too shiney or made to have a "patina".. ride it, break it, bodge it and repeat...
