That's a beautiful noise. It brings back fond memories. My yellow 150 didn't have a turbo but she could go alright if you kept your head down low.![]()
I came up to Auckland from Gisborne on it in the winter of '85 wearing a fetching one-piece yellow PVC riding suit with newspapers stuffed down the legs to keep me warm.![]()
I did the trip in 2 days! With that turbo, I could have done it in ... maybe 1.5 days...or maybe 3 days considering I would have probably needed a wee stop off at Whakatane hospital A&E.

What a waste of time on a scooter
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods
ugh if you don't think thats cool you have no taste 42 hp out of a scooter is the mean sleeper sitting there on a gn and you think you can smoke a vespa and it wheelies and goes warp nine over the horizon:P lol
If that passed me on one wheel I'll ask the Dr for some medication!
Dangerously close to red bling there buddyOriginally Posted by Sniper

Is this the same scooter that would beat a CBR?Originally Posted by texmo

I have trouble squeezing as much out of my current 250 cruiser as I got out of my old 150 2-smoke Vespa. I have no doubt that a px200 would give me a run for my money and a GN from what I hear would be an easier target yet. :-)Originally Posted by texmo
Mind you, I would never want to go back to that small wheel size again. On the other hand, I was able to carry a whole spare wheel on a bracket behind the pillion seat so they had their merits.
would love to take this for a cruise, can just imagine it, roll up next to some wanked up honda civic, give it a few revs riiiiiiiiiiiiingdingdingdingdingriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiingdingdingdingding the civic racer joins in, then bam civic gets beaten by scooter and civic drivers hot girlfriend, dumps him and jumps on the back of turbo charged vespa![]()
