LIKE LX ancestor
« on: July 06, 2014, 04:38:18 AM »
 Went on a ride with a scooter club this morning. I saw this at a Vespa dealer in Newport Beach. It is a vintage Lambretta. This must be what the LX color scheme is based on. The dealer said it was a customers' bike that was there for service. He said it belonged to Obi-Wan. He must have a place down there. I thought it looked pretty cool.

I'm not to up to date on these but it looks slightly older than a '71 125 I have in my shop. The only difference I can see is the front fender on the one you pictured.

The one that is here has a broken steering tunnel in the chassis. The owner couldn't figure out why it wont drive in a straight line. He rode it here from EastPoint... 15 miles at 55 mph.

I gave him a quote, and made a fair offer for the bike. We'll see what he decides.
