That sounds more like a command than a question!

It is as you see it no restoration going on here

Very nice. Is the front brake up to stopping it? I only ask as my current project is a very similar engine and I am going to try a reverse pull drum

I've got reverse pull drum on my gt186 and it can stop on a sixpence. Well it could if it didn't have shitty Lambretta suspension anyway.

Honestly, it's a really powerful brake.

The brakes are good but i am thinking about a disc brake

It's a pity that outboard disc brakes just don't look right on a Lambretta, especially an original beauty like yours.

outboard disc brakes look wank on bikes like this. reverse pull drum will do the job and look the part. without ABS over braked lambrettas are more dangerous than under braked (under baked) ones.
beautiful wheels mate.
