Just been reading this.Are you having trouble getting your side panels on?
I had excactly the same problem,tried three different rubbers,panels just would not go on.Then I got some from Scooter Restorations,they are slightly thinner,but with these on,the panels went on

I am pretty certain that these are the original panels but I'm not sure what you mean by the spring thingy tho?

Yes just demmel some outWulfy66 wrote:ducksta wrote:lovely job well done,if leaving everything standard then great, i would have opened up the air scoop a bit while you had the chance bit more airflow to the filter wouldnt harm.
Is that just a case of cutting it out with a dremmel or such? I'm going to keep the engine as standard on this one as I plan to hand it to my son when he turns seventeen (wife would give me hell if she found out it was not 125 and also I would not forgive myself if anything was to happen to him). Am keen to do another for myself once finished but with a bit more oomph
