At least this one is totally up front about what it is, and has priced it accordingly. Good to see an honest seller once in a while...

Now that doesn't mean a clueless buyer won't snatch it up thinking it's a deal and start posting here asking for help when it self destructs....

Being a quiet follower of this thread has made me be aware enough that I can usually say "there's something not right on this bike" but not enough to definitely tell what.

putting a leggy toolbox on a lambretta is popular here for convenience, dont be put off by that so much

Yes, alignment is always tough when you weld 4 scooters together to make one! I wonder if the "cut" in the brake line happened when one of the welds shifted? I will say, maybe they are catching on, the prices seem to be going down. Are we getting through "Now where did I put that ownership?" Oh that's right, I left it in Ha Noi!

Not only that but the panels appear to be modified GP panels. That thing is f'd up. I would love to see what is going on with the motor on that abortion.
