Alright fella,  
Your Rally is coming on a treat - good work!
I like old Vespas & Lambrettas, currently got a new style Vespa myself, but have all sorts in the past.

thats coming along really nice, its funny cos i was brought up around scooters all my life, dont currently own 1, but have in the past. saying that my old man has a silver special lambretta( 225cc fully tuned) thats only done 40 mile since it was built a couple of years back. shame he hardly uses his.
hope your gonna use this beauty

I grew with scooters too. just had to have one when i grew up

you wanna tell your old man you'll take care of his lammy

and don't worry it will be used daily

….a bit closer to the end now..  

wiring loom to wire up
exhaust
headset
seat

also want a Stainless rear engine mount bolt


Just a bit dissapointed I have been sent an exhaust with a dodgy bracket that has to go back

its one of the best rallys ive ever seen, and ive seen a few, (shameful plug) check out mike phoenix scooters denton. fantastic place. and im working on the old to let me lend his silver lammy, but hes stubborn. got pics tho to show at cumbria vag.
