150s Manual

As I bought the scooter in bits I need some help putting it back together like the front hub and spindle. I've had a look on the Haynes website and they don't have a vintage vespa manual in print at the moment: See here

Can anyone recommend a manual or a download for a service manual for a Moto Vespa 150s.

Cheers,
Stu

Just realised the bottom one may be of use. Will it do it?

Im pretty sure the front end is the same as the GS150, GL, Sprint.

Scooterhelp list a parts book specifically for the Motovespa 150s (in downloadable PDF format).... only available in Spanish text though - but it still has all of the exploded diagrams to show you how it all goes together.

As Gary said - the Spanish '150s' shares the same common front end as the GS150/GL/Sprint/Rally - ect.... and the parts books for these are available on Scooterhelp in English text.

There's also a book available titled 'How to Restore Classic Largeframe Vespa Scooters' by Mark Paxton - which is a good reference point if it's your 1st resto - and it covers stripping & rebuilding the front end in decent enough detail.
