I know what you mean, we are on holiday on the Isle of Man at the moment and it must be 50 years to the week since I came to my first IoM scooter rally here!

Great scooter the silver special. Are you going to restore or leave as is?

Planning on leaving as is, but finding it difficult lol. Going to/have , replaced some bits and pieces that were/are past saving, and treated any rust. Might in due course tidy some of the worst areas up, eg the footboards which are both split badly. After all, I am just the current custodian of the bike and part of its ongoing history, and if I had owned it from new, it would probably look different to how it looks now as repairs would have been done when necessary! Determined to keep the 6 volt system though, as long as I get get it to be more reliable than it is at moment, as sometimes it starts 2nd/3rd kick, other times it just does not want to start! All part of the Lambretta experience though!cgt75b wrote:Great scooter the silver special. Are you going to restore or leave as is?
