Modern Vespa

Here it is. A Malossi front shock obtained by a great friend of mine on here. Corny but the purple kinda matches the LX. It's being put on tomorrow and hopefully my ride with be smoother. What ar you getting the scoot for Xmas?

For Christmas I am in the process of stripping down my ET4, and respraying it complete with a new seat.

Might be slightly early Christmas, but my scoot will be getting fresh oil and filter, fresh hub oil, Dr. Pulley sliders and variator guides, a new belt, fresh coolant, a tightening of the glove box hinges, fresh brake fluid, and I hope a rubdown of ACF-50.

And it just got a Heidenau K61 rear tire.

I think I have it all....

a haynes manual and ill be cleaning it carb

the PX will def. be getting a carb cleaning...

the GT, she's gonna get a bit more...her engine is gonna get pulled and 2 new exhaust studs....she'll also get a bit of reaming before hand @ the machine shop

not too sure what else I'm gonna do....oil/filter....sliders maybe?

I've spent my entire allocation for PTW $$ (and then some) on my 1949 Harley-Davidson this year. I'm giving it a complete rebuild. All the way down to the bare frame. I'm rebuilding everything from brakes to transmission to the engine. My P200e has been getting hard daily duty since August. Paint on the Harley should be done soon so my hope is that for Christmas I can give the P200e a break and start riding the Harley on a daily basis again.

nowt .... theyre just lucky to be in my shed

My liberty 125 got a rubber floor mat

the scooter gets Christmas all year long.

The Mojito will be getting some new tires and a complete fluid change.

Everyone's giving me money for christmas to get the damage fixed, but I've told them not to bother, because it's likely I'll just leave it looking a state, and get a new exhaust.

a new Oxford scooter cover for next years rallies.

My scooter didn't get me anything last year, so...

Mine is getting a new fuel pump.

My small frame 90 is getting the rest of the parts for its rebuild. The Bev and the P200 get new Italian flag stickers (looks really good on them) full washing and wax and the Honda Met gets new cheap ass shiny chrome mirrors as well as a detailing with the other bikes.

Shame on you,did not your tireless scoot haul you around all year without so much as one complaint?

You were saying......

It just got new fluids & a fresh rear tire. Since I'm feeling generous, I think I'll wash it for the first time in six months. I'm also treating it to a day at the toy run tomorrow. It is excited to meet 15,000+ motorcycles & a handful of scooters.

It's not been real good this year, pissed me off a few times, it isn't getting shit.

Babe just got her tune up. For Christmas, its going to be a sheepskin pad and some Jettin bar ends.

Judy - I like the shock, its pretty

A carb rebuild and a whole host of tweaks that I can't do with my meager allotment of tools and lack of workspace. And TAGS!!!

It's not much, but we're perpetually broke working in the arts. So, it's more than many neglected scooters get

An oil filter to have as a spare "in stock," chrome brake levers, Givi backrest, and an OEM front rack. It always gets a new registration sticker around this time, too.

It's already received an early gift...

A new cover.
The old one was a bit oversized and, well, old. It was re-gifted to the motorcycle. *

...and will receive a late gift...
Belt, rollers, oil/filter change, and a few other things already purchased but waiting for Spring to spring before installing. Maybe I'll see if I can figure out how to install that front rack I purchased last year in time for Amerivespa next year.

*Fear not. The motorcycle doesn't feel neglected. Being new to me this year, it's already received a new luggage rack, sissy bar, windshield, clock, tank bag, and is also awaiting winter's end to have the 12V plug installed.**

**I really really wish I had a garage.

Topcase bought on ebay original equip arived yesterday 175.00 with backrest brand new. sweeet!

Maybe the Faco tween screen.
She's been quite the spoiled baby since joining the stable this summer.

Xmas comes early for my ET
scoot has new rear tire (thanks to a nail) as well as new rear brake pads ...

My scoot has had Christmas every few weeks for the past six months... but I like to spoil my plum. So as an early Christmas present it will be getting a full top end build. Polini cylinder, malossi head, and malossi cam. Get the Carb cleaned while its under the knife and replace some random body screws that have gone missing. It just got a new malossi variator today... to replace the polini that was in there.

A (winter) rest.

Yikes.

Can wait

Mines getting front and rear crash bars as well as front and rear racks(maybe on the racks may go with windscreen)

A hat and fairy lights!

I have decided to deflate the tires and put in some fresh air. I was going to change the oil, but it has been only seven thousand miles and I don't want to spoil it.

My Typhoon is getting a new heart transplant!

BENNY won't that be covered under warranty? It should be. Good luck. MIN thanks. Everybody has their thoughts but i was told the Malossi is better than the Bitubo. Lasts longer with less problems. The red would clash with my plum scooter as well.

mines getting /got a carpet in its garage

and a new battery for next spring

Go Pro camera for both scootsand a Givi windscreen for the MP3.

If Iris keeps being nice to me she will get her beloved floor mat back which was taken away from her shortly after purchase. X-mas also came early for her when whe got a termoscud. For stocking stuffers she will be given some new decals to cover some new and old scratches.

PCX is waiting patiently (her Rider isn't ) for the following items to arrive:
Naughty me, I'm still looking at all the sales! Somebody, Help Me!


Admore New mini light bar and....

Rapid Transit Recon 23 Tail Bag
