Modern Vespa

started another for no reason other than the last is a bloody big thread n its getting slow n clogged .....

carry on as normal peeps n heres to another 250ish pages of bollox

bullox! Thaks Bitsa...sometimes I want to shift through the thread looking for something in particular or a pic that cant be found through the search and alot of time I just give up!
Werd!

Good going B.. that thread was a whopper... took forever to load..

Rufi.. the original Today I.. is still there.. you can still look through it..

lets have a link to the old un so it dont get lost ........................ today i ........

Landed in Milan for a bunch of meetings with the large bank based here. Great folks. Didn't help having a taxi strike though. Having the Rally here would have made life so much easier. I think we'll be doing a fair amount of work coming up here and in Rome so it may be time to invest in a company scoot.

Nice little pk would do nicely, no tax or insurance or nout necessary

...replaced my cool ass because it was getting all shaggy and stuff.

I might have to make it a, ahem, T&G to ensure others can make use of it too within the group, or, find a decent geared bike and say to hell with the rest of them! 8)

can I join the "today I" party?

All depends marky, you do anything today?

went for an early morning ride around Albany

Damn cookie.. you take that pic? or steal from Nat Geo? it's a nice one!

it's pretty easy to take nice photos in this town. found a new bike shop to frequent too. think I'll buy a new lid tomoz. I'm loving these roads

Poured out a 40oz for the old "today I" thread... Rest in peace, homie

Also pulled a a wicked rear brake slide, narrowly missing a newer Mercedes.
Close enough that the girl driving had to ask if I had tagged it. Shoulda got her phone number

Haaaa. it's not gone you ninny! it was just too damn big.. crack another 40 and make a toast to today I... part deux!

oh.. Don't crash.

Today I'm glad I didn't ride. Got 4 inched of hail and a funnel cloud above my house. My yard is fucked bit everyone is ok.

I don't understand. You're never loading more than one page at a time so it won't load any quicker.


Searching for something within the thread, now that's a different issue. Even with MV's state-of-the-art search engine.

^^^ no way José! It takes 10 times longer, or took, ten times longer to load that read when you 1st opened it.. Then it. Would go more quickly to each page... It had to load all 10,000 pages or whatever it had.. Really!

And it's all still there... It better be... all my best crap is on there!

Lol......*my best crap"

Mine is when I incorporate ruffage in the meal.

I don't crash... I dismount with panache

Thanx for lookin out tho, big bruv...

happy dayz. a new lid that isn't scratched to shit

Nice one Josh. I've got a M2R lid. Happy with it and heaps cheaper than some.

2dolla head 2dolla helmet this is my fourth m2r I really think they're comfortable n a bit noisy but u get used to that n u can always just sing louder to yourself on long rides eh

Don't you just go to the last page? I just tried loading this page, then the last page (clicking on the number [241]) of the original thread... they took the same time to load.

Josh how did you go finding work?

come on peeps ..... you never read harry potter. .. ive not but its not all in one book I do know that

mike I went for an interview today n I've got a point four for atleast six weeks at yakamia p s an I'll see what happens if it does end.. the registra has a really bad tooth infection so havntbbeen shown the grounds properly yet.



we aren't allowed to talk political stuff on this forum

Thank god for that! I could only imagine how bad shit would get otherwise. Shit would get really real, for real. Real talk.

was reading the scooter jack thread yesterday ......
then this morning on me way to work a guy pulled up beside me at the lights on a bike n leant over putting his face infront of mine ..... I shat it n head butted him .... he flipped up his lid n started swearing at me n I rode off fast ....... what the fuck he was doin I dont know but I was in shock

no bugger all. Nor today.

....stripped the paint off my shifter tube. need to fine sand and metail polish it yet. Plan to match it with my stripped alu casing on my new old vintage smallframe tail light

today i went crazy must be cause of the heat of summer

i took of the pipe i got from SGNScott and put it in my excel 200, it was a PITA as it make me wasted 4 hour just to make the neck for the 200 barrel and once its stay in the bike i realize the silencer is sit way to low and i have problems in mounting my spare tyre, once i force it on my cowl isnt closing tightly

the good news is its actually produce more power in the 200cc rather in the 150 machine, test it on and i loose 2 of my rear licenced plate due to the rev i did all the way down the roads 8)

pics will come next until then have a nice day to you all and cheer

This time, my new to me old vintage tail light.
A matching pair, ready to reinstall

looks good Rod.. hey you have a switch on the shifter? V90? what year? how come I aint got one? '64 original. I want a switch!!!

Seriously though.. that hole is for a switch right?

e ..... worling on scooters is never a waste of time if it makes it faster

Yeah. Mine is ex Japan where they all have bar end indicators. I took them off to de-clutter the bars and to be honest, in the day with a 6 volt system, you could barely see them.

I was going to put it back on just as a dummy switch to hide the hole but the chrome cover doesn't look that great next to the polished steel

Rims soda blasted and painted
New tires from SIP
White letters by Sharpie oil based pen
Nuts and washers acetoned

Dig it. That's spiffy lookin'.

it does but i wont gonna ever make another p200 pipe neck ever again without a proper bending tolls

in case u curious here's the pics mate, hope u enjoy my work
