I may have found a Vespa. It’s a 1963 VBB1 150 4 speed. I know the px150’s p200e’s but not much about the oldies. I have been looking for a large frame Vespa for a long time. Body is rough but that doesn’t bother me a bit. Ya know how nice buses are hard to find in the UK? That’s his it is here for Vespas in the northern US. Any thoughts or advice? Cheers!
Lol. Love those too. They are even harder to find in the US. I like them basic. Kick start. No oil injection. Add a little gear oil for effect.
They did. But when California banned the importation of new 2 stroke vehicles that killed the market for them. I went to high school in Toronto Canada in the mid 80’s and there was quite a following for the whole mod revival thing. I’m sure it was similar in large cities in the US.
Not a guru on Vespas, had a 90 in early 70's and loved it. Only real problems I had were the cables kept fraying. Awkward to fix but with experience quite quickly fixed. I think that is probably generic to Vespa's and scooters anyway.
