Hey all, I'm definitely new to this forum and biking in general. At the moment I own a 1987 Vespa Piaggio in fantastic deep red. Its an awesome little bike, although its only 50cc.

Reading about it looks like you can do conversions on them to a higher rating, which I think would be awesome, because this bike is all style and grace, even if its a heavy massive beast of a machine.

Anyway, hello all - nice to finally talk to you

Welcome to the forums. I started on a Vespa and got hooked. Lots of good advice on here (plus some rubbish)

Hi! I love the wee 50cc scoots. Don't know why but I find them much more attractive than larger displacement scoots or cycles. Used to have a 2008 Piaggio Zip 50, and now a 2007 Vespa LXV50.

I'm moving out to the countryside though and the Vespa has to go

She's on Trade Me at the moment but I wonder if I will ever find someone else who will appreciate the little fifty.
