has anyone got a clear copy of the excellent Scooter Restoration articles written by the late Vic Saunders ? It was published in a series of 20+ articles in Scootering magazine .

Unfortunately I don't know which year the articles were published in order to track down a copy of the magazine.

Hi, try these. I gave all my scooterings away about 3 years ago and meant to go through them and take out all the technical stuff but never did. I dont think its all of them but enough to go on with.

I would love the complete series. There was alot in them about restoring/ repairing switches and ignition switches. Alot of my scooterings had water damage and the ones i wanted were part of that series. Thats why I went searching for them in the first place. They were very imformative. I'm not sure how you would share them. I have a dropbox account that you can put stuff on and make them public but have never done it.

Yeh, just checked, there are 43 pages. The pages with the light switches and ignitions are not there.
