Modern Vespa

Hi all! Very happy to join the Vespa community now that I've purchased a 2015 Primavera 150. This one has been previously well loved with just over 20k miles on the odometer!

My concern is that, when looking at the rear wheel straight-on from behind, it looks really off center to the right. It seems to ride fine, but I'm concerned about whether it's the body or the suspension that's out of whack.

Any suggestions on how to check the mount points or alignment? Thanks!

They are all a little offset due to weight of left side, my bet is the massive mudflap is making it look worse than it really is, drop a line between rear stop light center and wheel, and you will get a better idea of what the real offset is.

If you can see the wheel nut and it's cotter pin properly in place then it's likely ok. I saw Scooterwest's Robot has a tire change video for Primavera. In the attached photo, look at the wheel offset where he is able to insert a long screwdriver into the brake lever next to the tire.
