Thats absolutely brilliant , the best top speed that i know of up until today for a full bodied lambretta was Keith Hudsons sprinter which he did 99 mph over the 1/4 mile , well done Jimmy.

105.6 miles per gallon? Wow! Awesome. That's more than a Prius isn't it?
Lol

Slight tail wind, about 9mph I think.

Truly amazing result and speed!!
As Mike said, this is a full "metal" bodied road going GP scoot, with lights etc.
Charlie really has raised the bar with the Super Monza!
I believe there have been some upgrades fitted to this engine (ie. bigger 34mil carb, mapped ignition, taller gearing etc.), but all of which Super Monza owners - like myself and Mike - can fit to their own road scoots.

Was the engine in the same specs as at the Scooterotica Shootout?
