Just picked this up yesterday. Total 80's or early 90's revival bike. I really feel like putting on some really tight jeans and heading to a ska show...

Expected stock but found out it had a Polini 207 kit and a sito plus on it. Guy never mentioned it in the ad - so that was a bonus.

Front mudguard is bent so i need a replace.

If anyone has the following hit me up

Chrome front mudguard
older but not thrashed rear crash bars
backrest for the BBQ rack

Kyle's Scooter Shop in dallas has tons of great 80's P bling. I think i remember some FACO bars, or maybe some of the utah stuff.

Actually a king a queen seat would hurt - Im too tall - but your right - a Dasmi seat would be ideal.

So I actually ended up selling this to a friend of mine that has been bugging me for a scooter for a while. Currently he has a bajaj and wants to do a trip with his wife and 2 kids down the coast. I really tried to convince him to get a stella 4 stroker but he liked this one...so I had to take my new px and dress it up in old school clothing.

Still need to get a backrest and chrome glovebox

Went from this...

To this day I cannot smell clove cigarettes without being transported back to Seattle rallies in the late 80's, early 90's.

Clove cigarettes . . . college radio, '78-'82. The DJ on before me chain-smoked them and the windscreen on the microphone reeked.

He didn't have a scooter. Maybe a trench coat.

Sooooo...
As I'v already stated I love the 80's stuff, but I am in no way a purist on anything, so I was thinking maybe of throwing a couple lights on a powder coated crash bar and throwing a couple of these over them to finish out the look. Now I've never seen the old scooteboys with KCs, nor do I care if they did or not. I just think they scream 80s across the board.
