Modern Vespa

The street that schmuck got air on his Tesla and crashed it into a parked car, totaling it.

I had to look...

DAMN!

Yeah.
My ride home is very close to that.

No need for a dyno here.

Typical annoying ass youtube "creator", but its more detail on that crash and footage of the aftermath.

Love to hear how that venturi works out.
How's it shifting these days?

300F but your seals look like they're in good shape

That car they hit is right in front of my friend's house.
Pretty sure that's his wife's SUV

The Waze app takes Uber drivers through there when there's traffic on Sunset. After a new rain it's hell for the uninitiated.

Did someone say Venturi?

MV user EvanJakiun riding my V100 the wrong way down a one way street in front of my garage! He refuses to just ride around the block! After working on finishing the rebuild of his stella.

Oh yeah, your buddiy lends a hand for a few minutes and so automatically gives them the right to go recklessly speeding around on your smallframe WITH NO HELMET!

Ha! yep.

Trying to get more people interested in them around me. Got a few, but definitely need some more.

Another Pleasant Valley Sunday. About twenty minutes later, with darkness rapidly descending, I felt the wiggle- woggle of a rapidly deflating rear tire. I got her safely stopped (heart rate was jacked). My tools were sitting in the garage. Agh. My lovely, tolerant wife video streamed from the garage while I pointed out everything I needed. Changed out the tire by car headlights. Spare had ample air. So there was that. I think i picked something up turning around on a cruddy shoulder (as pictured).

I actually bought a 20/20 & 24/24. I put the 20/20 on the Stella, and the 24/24 on the Allstate. I love the design of these that Oopsclunkthud created. Super easy to order through Shapeways. I want to do a separate writeup on them here in the near future. I've been consumed by the lift project, though and that is finally winding down.

I upped the main jet by 6 on the 24/24 and so far, it's running nice, by the feel and temp.

And shifting is performing wonderfully! No hiccups whatsoever...

Want to add this to the mix?

What is that?

Heck yeah! It looks like custom air filtration, correct? And man, I gotta tell ya, the fit and finish of the 24/24 venturi, with it's slanted top and nubs to click it into the screw holes is genius and works great.

Thanks Patrick for.putting this design out there for us all. It's greatly appreciated!

Out and about!

My 2016 PX 150 on my drive after finishing the engine rebuild. Not very exciting but out of the garage nonetheless. Hopefully out on a ride this weekend so will add a few more.

That's the spirit of this thread friend! Get that bike some vitamin D!

The sun should be shining. Happy days.

Stolen from Darly Moor thread, property of, and apologies to Cgt75b. Good looking Rally regardless.


Sorry, but it just seems to belong

Cheers!

Please start a thread about this, C'Man!

I'll get something going next week. I'm out of town right now, so limited time and keyboard access. I still need to get the bellmouth Dyno, and try the one I have for my PWK again.

My wife runs a day program for young adults with special needs. I took the afternoon off and stopped by to visit yesterday, and a couple of the fellas posed for pics.

Very nice, a pleasant little surprise today! And your unique blue centerstand is growing on me.
(But I think the rest of the bike might look even better w/ some well done white pin striping maybe? )

Blue wouldn't be my first choice for the center stand. The painter did a very nice job, and apparently the PO was so pleased with the painter that he had him paint just about everything blue. (See below)

Scooter Rally weekend, but I decided to spend it with motorcycles in the mountains.

What's up with what looks like a brake switch in the engine bay?

contact for the 1974 turn signals that were on the cowls.

Blue finally left the garage to return library books ON TIME!🥳

Eric, I'm consistently impressed with your ability to find cool riding destinations and picture opportunities.

Keep it up!

Love the silver on a P. My first was an '80 silver P125X.

Caught a double rainbow near the airport. I turned around to check out a Cessna coming in to land against a hard crosswind.

Those chrome horns...

Loud? You ever scrape them?

PS different colored wheels? All red, please!

Thanks!
Horns- Semi truck loud. I have a doorbell mounted near the brake pedal that I can tap with my toe.
Scraping- clearance is as good as the Sim on 8's. But I did have a touch today in a harder lean. They're mounted to pull off without damaging the floorboards if they had to. Can replace for about $15.
Red/ Gray- I had a flat. Put a new tube in the tire, but I've been lazy about swapping it back on. The more I look at the red the more I like it. Maybe with some whitewalls.

Thanks Chandlerman!

Rainbows two days in a row.

Glad to see people out riding enjoying the summer.
