I went drag racing and had a ball. Poo man's small 135 was so much faster than my 200. God dam I need to do some mods to this thing and make it come alive. 10 outa 10 was still heaps of fun. @Poo what did you mention when I was at retro scooter the other day.

you mean if you will blend in with the unwanted attention of 20+ noisy old crusty bikes making a ruckus around town you will be fine.

Ok this is the thread I was ment to drop it in. Supercharged 12a rotary. Pretty cool.

did a 2 sedan. got a 4 coupe to do early next year. but camo is best purchased off ebay or ali express. a wax a grease cleaner will be good to clean before spraying them. with little bits ive sprayed before hand like door handles and arm wrest pays to heat the can and the subject up 1st make it get a good coating and also dries really well. also found vht the better vinyl dye (paint) presuming the doors are press welded with patterns be the easier way to paint them and cover them again. edit or if you really want black ones sell the white ones and buy these cards https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/mazda/interior/listing-1852444192.htm some vinyl and cover them black. or get the pattern you want on them stitch to vinyl through a layer of foam and then put them on the new cards. always found the vht and other vinyl dyes wear off on common places of use eg holding the door open with your foot, tops of doors and around winders where been covered in black vinyl you wont have wear problems.

Fuck yeah. came back for lunch today and put my accelerator cable on and found the nuts for the exhaust so put that on. Then filled it full of water and chucked some new plugs in it. so happy to have it brapping again. need to sort a water temp sender and a reader as my one is reading the block temp and not the engine. and will again re do the radiator a bit better and get it tuned.

By by valiant. you shull be missed

Fuck yeah. chur to @Geophy for lending his hands with my jack. made the job a bunch easier.

i spent a bunch of time last night searching around and around for my bloody starter motor. found it under something under something else........ done alterations around the shop and cleaned up left right and center so as per norm my parts just get put where ever they go. had to file the bush a little bit as it seemed tight but hopefully slap it back together and make it one today as i have all the correct bolts and everything else now

I done some work on it finally Been lazy and finally sorted out the Bush in it so I can put the rotary back in it. If I remember I'll bring my axel stands in on Monday and continue to do some work on it.

@Urbankiwi this just popped up on my news feed. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1484311775128761/permalink/2477331875826741/?sale_post_id=2477331875826741

Man this clocked my day coming across this build. Such a great stance and style. Excited to see the end result.

Thank you very much. New exhuast is good. But I managed to get a ride home in a chevy truck this afternoon. Vespa must be running same stuff oldschool.co.nz is running. Just stopped working. Used my tool kit and tried everything I could on the side of the road. Dan you reliable scooter not been reliable.

@Archetype i found your drink.....

sign me up. when is this happening?!

So I posted a little while back regarding exhaust on the vespa club page. Got a bunch of responses and the common one was to get a sip road. A guy also posted this link regarding a review of other exhaust and comparison. Found it quite interesting https://scooterlab.uk/vespa-big-box-exhaust-shootout-feature-2/?fbclid=IwAR12o3Kmr2bxp5JaoSpj0EfhnxKKFJz7PgaaZsDmqMMvfWDeyVXkw4aUobI the short of it is this. pretty sweet and easy to compare types and what not. retro scooter stock the SIP Road 2 in Auckland and i am going there tomorrow with @Geophy to drop a car off so i may end up getting one. although nz scootercarer can get a polini one. HHHHNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
