Do anyone know if the Vespa and Lambretta Handlebar levers för clutch and brake are interchangeable?

IE, can I buy one for a Vespa and fit it to my Lambretta?

They're not identical, if you get Vespa ones I think you need to fettle them to fit...

Vespa PX on a series 1 or 2 yes

Series 3 or better no due to the shape of the lever support

Thank you for the replies.
I mostly wondered if they have the same connecting holes at the same spot.

The series 1/2 are identical for pivot point and bolt size. It was overall a bit fatter (thicker where it meets the lever support) but only by about 1mm so was easy to adjust and polish. I was after the dog leg levers and could not find any lambretta ones

Ebay Scooter emporium old stock. They were originally painted red. When I got the paint off the aluminium was a rough casting that needed polishing up but the size and shape should be the same if you can get some already polished.

Intresting. I was looking at these:

But only see the hole for the bolt not the wire barrel.



In Lambretta we trust!

It must go underneath outboard of the adjustor
