Dirty Scooters - Lambretta Li 150 series 2 restore and 64 GL malossi 221

this blog is a record of my scooter projects. The Dirty Rocket is finished for now, and I am about to begin restoring a '58 Lambretta Li150 series 2. The Dirty rocket started out as an attempt to build my ideal scooter from a rusted bare heap for as little money as possible. (The frame is a '57 VNA) now a 64 GL frame.

forking marvelous
















My new hero NORM has come up trumps with the PK fork, and finally the project feels like it is moving forward.
Norm has an engineering plant called Saville Engineering, is a Harley Davidson enthusiast and took on the job of making the changes to the pk fork. He went above and beyond to sort out the issues I had, and understood my financial woes.
Putting together the front end brought up a few more minor jobs...
  • get lever bolts
  • find alternative front brake cable
  • find alternative to speedo cable
  • investigate seat latch
  • change steering lock
  • start thinking about wiring
  • alter light switches
  • battery cage
