Hi there, just found this site. I'm brand new to scootering but I've been a great admirer for quite a while. I'm in the middle of trying to restore a Vespa VNB that I picked up. Sadly it's a bit of a mess and will probably take me a while. It's currently being sprayed as i speak and the other parts are coming together... Sadly the engine is causing the most problems and I'm wondering to get a LML or a PX and change the size of the hun down to 8 inch. Or maybe getting someone with the skills to rebuild the engine I have here. Is there anyone on here who could offer any advice?
Cheers David |

Welcome matey!
There`s plenty of folk on here with loads of knowledge and experience of fixing scoots and running them in......especially during the rally season :D Sadly I don`t know enough to know how little I know! I just ride `em ;) |

Hi again, thanks for the replies. It'd be good to get some knowledge and advice from some of you. I've done up a few cars (not engines mind) but never a scooter. Always liked them and have driven a few of my mates ones. As I said in the first post the engine I have is old but I think it's the original and is worth saving.... But seems like an easier option to get a lml or a px one. I'l have a look into the contacts you've provided and get the ball rolling.
Thanks for your help again. David |
