Rode one 15 miles or so to my house this morning.. God I love my lammy!

I likened it to getting out of my Audi and into a Metro.. :D

I thought I missed my old P2 - I don't now :)

DON'T PANIC! :D

It's not mine, a mate has bought it, it's his first scoot, I'm giving a scrub up, a service and then it's on it's way!

LOL

I actually have a real soft spot for 150 supers, goes back to my teenage years..where we all hung out a guy owned one and it was the only scoot that started first time and got where he was going without breaking down.. :D kind of made a big impression on me and it was pretty quick to..I would actually own and ride one.. :o :o

My bro and I had a cutdown 150 super that was our IOW '86 scoot ................we cut a huge hole in the centre floor to get at the cables, no proper back light, hadn't passed our tests etc etc but heh what with all that went on that weekend no-one noticed :D :D :D :D :D
Remember it being torquey rather than quick, but reliable as you say.

Ever noticed how +90% of the sad twats drifting around the Cyber Scooter Forum World are Lambretta owners!

Nothing wrong with Vespa’s or Lambretta’s I have both and love em all for different reasons………but if I was to compare any of my scoots to a fecking metro it would be my teeth rattling TS1 and not my silky smooth 20bhp Vespa.

Don’t understand the Vespa prejudice ( That’s Vespa, not vethpa or any other retarded abbreviation for the word Vespa)


Ride safe Gentlemen

OOhh get you :moon:

I am a sad tw@7 - in on a saturday night on a scooter forum - watching f@@king strictly come dancing :shock:

But - I strongly disagree the VESPA - there I said it , was as rough as feck - whereas my Rapido'd Lammy is as smooth as it gets - no contest.

I have had vespas for the last 23 years and this is my first Lambretta and all I was saying was the Lambretta handles miles better than the Vespa - IN MY OPINION.....

Oh and I nearly bought this Vespa for myself for when the Lammy lets me down :D
