My first scooter was LML Star 200. Bought it new in 2016. Done on it near 50000 km and still have it in good shape.
Year later I found 50 Special in August 2017 and since that time I fell in love with geared 2 stroke Vespa.
One more year later and I found P150X in September 2018. Fun but both my Vespas is 1981.
It was by chance and pure luck to find Vespa in our reality.
Previous owner(long hair rocker-boy) stop ride on it when he crashed and broke front brake lever. For the first meeting I came just to see P and talk about price. Scooter stayed in the shed for few years.
But when I saw it it was love at first sight(the same as with Special haha). I wanted this scoot for any price. Rocker-boy said $600 and I said OK. A bit stupid for scooter without any papers and I not known if it even starts.
But we shook hands.
For the next day I came with fresh fuel, spark plug, some instruments, front brake lever and cable.
Rocker-boy was very surprised when I changed old broken lever for 10 minutes and there appears some front brakes.
Much more he was surprised when with new spark plug and fresh fuel Vespa come alive after 15-20 kicks. To be honest I was very surprised too. And very happy.
I had 50 km of the way through the evening city to my garage. Brakes was poor, tyres was worn, no mirrors on, gears jumps out but what emotions overwhelmed me!
It looks like an LML(just later I will see a lots of differences) but rides totally different. Hard to explain. All the same ease as I feel with Special.
Despite the not very good condition of the scooter, I was able to easily rich 90 km/h on the speedometer.
So I gets to my garage without any problems.
