Hey folks! Restoring an 80's LML scoot that's had a hard life. It's a son and father project with emphasis on the father :) We got the scoot in a few pieces and it came with many new engine parts. Looks like someone pressed out a bearing with snap ring still attached...oops. Looking for a spare engine case and all I can find is one with what I believe is the location of the starter motor. I am thinking of "upgrading" since the most basic one is no longer available (on eBay anyway). Anyone have any helpful thoughts? I've restored many cars and engines and have a machine shop but am a new Vespa ..read more

Hi Everyone! I have a 1966 Vespa Sprint 150 cc. When I apply the front brake the front wheel pulsates. The shop replaced the hub but still pulsating. They greased the bearings and tightened the steering knuckle. Still pulsating! Any suggestions that I can mention to the shop? They're baffled. Thanks, Colin Young Waltham, Ma.

Hi there, My 125LD (with a gt kit) is "running out of gas" while I drive. Plenty in the tank, and it runs great while running, but if i open it up, after a couple of blocks it runs out of gas and stalls out. It starts right back up if i let it sit for a minute. The tap is flowing, and the float is working... Wondering if anyone has encountered something similar or has ideas on what to look for before I just remove the carb and blow anything out. Thanks!

Took my 2021 GTS 300 HPE to 3 dealer service centers and they all say im crazy and they cant hear anything and/or find anything wrong with the bike. This sound it driving me nuts to the point I want to trade it in for a new one if i cant find the issue. Your help is greatly appreciated. PS: Its a vibrating/buzzing sound that comes and goes. Mainly heard upon acceleration and seemingly coming from the transmission area. 2 Videos: https://youtube.com/shorts/UOpkAWjZhrw https://youtube.com/shorts/moqg8m76vZU ..read more

Hey, Guys Wondering if you can help me with this issue. I can’t seem to get my fuel light to turn off. I replaced the fuel gauge, but the fuel light will not turn off. Everything else works perfectly. SIP emailed me: please check whether you have voltage at PIN 5. Simply unplug the Speedo and check this pin with a test lamp against ground. There must be no voltage at PIN 5 when the tank is full I still have voltage on PIN 5, any idea on how to fix this issue? SIP tech hasn’t responded back to me ..read more
