Gotta love Italian electrics. Still not bottom of the barrel, though - that would have to belong to Lucas or whatever the hell they used in many Indian scoots. Not offence to India - love their food.

Extremely common. People were bringing them by the container load.

And most of them seem to be Supers or Sprints. With the "rare" trap headset, of course. Yellow boots, optional.

The Sprints were frequently PakiBodges, often with the sidesaddle step still installed. Loads of the stereotypical 10" VBB's, too.

Yeah, seller said he put an extra 0 accidentally, but still... there is no excuse for the colour style of the paintjob!

For some reason I don't know, many of the Paki scoots were painted blue, almost a sky blue. Maybe it's a military color over there.

I think, and I'm probably wrong here, but I remember somebody telling me in a round about way that particular blue symbolizes good luck or protection (the Nazar Eye amulet is similar color) and can mean open space or freedom. it's also used on a lot of farm implements and trucks, busses, etc because it's more visible on the road in the countryside.

whether or not the guy was bullshitting me is up for debate.

more than likely it's just cheap and there's a whole bunch of it.

nah, no bodge, just questionable taste.

I don't hate it, honestly. if the glovebox and floorboard were tied in I think that It'd look pretty sharp. don't care for the seat, but that's so subjective.

Yes, but did you catch the price?

EDIT: I see there's a footnote about that. Nevermind. As you were.

I just asked Bing AI to write me an ad for a '65 Sprint that spins the fact it's built from three different bikes.

that's not a bodge. it appears to be a fairly unmolested US market bike (still has the tractor tail light and reflectors) that somebody with questionable taste owned.

the price is wayyyyy too high, though.

And in you lived in Melbourne (or Australia), you would know Melbourne's furniture king Franco Cozzo

A creative vandal has been awarded an 'A' for effort, after a making a humorous addition to a sign in Melbourne's west.

A small letter 'A' has been added to a sign at Footscray Park on Smithfield Road, so the sign now reads 'Footascray'.

Wow this is some thread, quite fascinating in depth and valuable.

I came away with fakes and ringers, import fakes, some not 100% authentic machines, custom scoots.and scooters some people just don't like what they've done to them.

I was hoping for lists of dodgy suppliers, sellers, and dangerous non roadworthy machines to stear clear of.
