I'm not convinced and even if I was I wouldn't give anywhere near that sort of money.

If there's paperwork, photographs, etc to back up the tale then fair enough nice scooter with a nice history. If there's no proof then it's an expensive scooter.

stainless floorboard bits? non Innocenti toolbox lock? 120kph speedo (repro??) on an LI150?; odd looking battery? battery tray on an Italian market machine?

reminds me of a resto from another part of the World IMO.

I was going to say the same thing. That bike screams Vietnam, everything but the yellow boots and rebadged as a SX.


Should read "stored since 2005, because it died right after I bought it and never ran again".

Are good bikes that hard to find in the UK?


This one would be a much better buy

Donnie, he may get back to you yet...... Hello pedrosoffice,



"paste"
Enter your question here...
Why oh why, if it was untouched since 1965, have you added all the vietnamese modern rubbish embellishments to it? All the non-Italian, stainless, wrong passivate bolts, wrong, new, modern speedometer etc etc? I offer £80.
