Modern Vespa

yesterday washed n waxed the 'beater' (someone here called it that) even polished me helmet then the rain came down ...... rode it today instead

Bike looks so good B.

Today I started fighting with my old blue P125X it shall be running by the end of the week honest

Also took my Gtr to the pub

T5 motor if I'm not mistaken.

Yep standard T5 as a starting point, it would only run yesterday if I flung petrol down the carb. Hopefully new carb has sorted the problem will see tomorrow it's to late now to try starting it.

ha ..... a bloke delivering summat at work saw me head poking out me bench .... he pointed n said t5? .... had a long conversation about vespas

Got married.

Finally got my hands on a short stroke lambretta crank.

Congratulations, good for you! Looks like you are off to a good start.

Congratulations TurbineGuy!

Have a nice day to you all and cheer

Today I went for my first ride on my smallframe! These little ones are nimble. Many thanks to Mr.J, SoCal, and MJ.

Also more like yesterday

Last time I checked my peanut was in Chicago and now it says ORD , wondering if an American can tell me what ORD means.

Cheers, looking forward to getting my peanut. +_+

The airport, in said Chicago I believe

Thanks Alan. Prob on its way to Singapore then. Or Japan. 8)

Bit of a sort out in the garage today

Found old pics from I believe 1984, untouchables Rally in (maybe) Huntington Beach.

Here is why there are so many p-series out west....everyone had one. My lone super is in the pics. Rode that thing up from San diego....sketch!

And. Is that scooterville in the one pic of the lone lammy?

Lost an auction for a carb I really wanted. It was mine till the last 5 seconds. Stupid me bid the amount I wanted to pay, not what I was willing.

I have a 27/23 avail if that helps

wow! appreciate the offer, I'm good on that carb. This was for a dellorto SS1. For some stupid reason I really want to run one on my TV. You can't see it, it's out dated, but I feel it would fit the bike way better than the Mikuni.

how does oppsclunkthud post still if they are banned? also, why were they banned? it seemed to me that they had helpful posts and was a generally friendly poster.

It's a title (like Vader's "Mr. Clean") as opposed to a status.

it came out of a joke here:
