Decided to resto a px :freak: , Question,anybody got a copy of vespa tecnica 5? is it worth the extortionate price? your views ta...

I've got it Ed. (well as an ex-PX anorak I would have wouldn't I? lol)
Wonderful book, but as with all of this type of book a nice coffee table clean hands only sort of book, beautifully illustrated and with many technical diagrams.
For just restoring a model I think this 'manual' is a bit OTT: haynes, the internet and a piaggio parts book would be just as good.
If you need any scans though more than happy to help.

Pity Sticky hasn't done a vespa book. I rebuilt a pile of bits Indian gp with a little engineering background and his book. Reckon if he did a 'how to rule the world' book, I could get as far as Poland.......... .....er.....then again...

You can download a free copy here, although it is in Italian. Still worth it so you can see the pictures and decide if you want to spend your money on actually buying the book.

Cheers Angelo, yes i seen a few places were it appears you can download the pdf free, however the ones i've tried either have viruses or run add on programmes on my pc, not seen one on pir*te bay though.

Definatley works without any problems. Also downloaded Vespa Tecnica 1 to 4 as well- just follow the 'related posts' links. In my opinion really nice books to look at but not worth the money.

Your right Angelo it does work, and your opinions right too
