It’s Finished! :)

Postby Scoots and Vans on Sat Oct 11, 2008 2:26 pm

Well it took a bit longer than I thought. I originally thought 4 weeks would be enough time to fit the restore in around work but it the end it took 4 months only a little bit longer
The Motovespa 160 has been on the road for 3 weeks now and I’m really happy with it, I decided to take it out for a spin first thing this morning to run it in a bit more and 118 miles later I ended up in Gosport had a bacon sandwhich and a cup of tea then rode back, the rally 200 engine that I fitted pulls so well it’s a real relaxing ride
Anyhow some pictures below. Sorry for the crap quality but only had my camera phone with me

My biggest fear, is when I die the Mrs will sell my Scooters for what I said I paid for them

Nice one mate, well worth taking your time when the result is that good!
If you could ride a vespa at the speed of light, would the headlight work???

Jeez, I was thinking of just putting the PX in it's place not raping it. You look like a man on a mission, more power to you.
