My Christmas Wish...

It's for some company to go retro and "upgrade" a 64' Lambretta Sx/(or)Tv200. I mean if LML can do it with the Stella, why not do a Lammy? (plus I just love the cowls on the TV 200).... or am I California dreaming?

I'd buy one. When it comes to vintage I definitely have a thing for Lammy's. The GP250 is a favorite of mine and on my list of vintages to buy... one day...

upgraded Lammy, a definate, unqualified Yes!

Isn't color a problem money can solve??? Wraps .... paint?

Thule did wraps for their air foils, one of my first must haves ... camo.

Isn't the question with Lambretta "which Lambretta"?

It seems that several companies around the world feel they each own the rights to the Lambretta name, while every other claimant to the name fights the others tooth and nail for the right to be known as the one, true Lammy.

They call it "Blur".

I suppose so...I did get some pretty potent pink parts on my white Buddy after the accident. Now she's truly one-of-a-kind. Still, wish for some deep, dark, sparkly purple if Santa is listening.

Unless SIL (Scooters India Limited) saw a good reason to start stamping out Lambrettas again, it won't happen. They quit building bikes in '98.

I would keep an eye on the non-Aldy-POS machines that are finally showing up in Europe:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lambretta-LN125-/200647981240

Currently, this is your best bet for getting modern convenience in a shape that could be recognized as a Lambretta.

just say no to modern Lammys

az_slynch · Post by **az_slynch** » Wed Nov 07, 2012 6:09 pm

It's a steel body and a SYM engine. Could be worse (like the trash that Khurana was slapping a badge on).

Huh? No 'push it like you stole it'? They actually run?

My Christmas wish is for the return of my stolen bike. Bahstahds.

And a Maico Mobil Roller.

Where would you put them all? Or, would you sell me a Rabbit?

Of course we wouldn't get it here in the States....

Post by **ericalm** » Thu Nov 08, 2012 12:29 am

Well, they're absurdly expensive. But since a Vespa MASTER or QUASAR can be crammed into a Lammy frame, find a great mechanic and a couple scooters and go for it.

The Rabbit is the boy's scoot. And since it won 'best scooter' at Rice-o-Rama, the price went up a grand

Seriously, if you had to choose, you'd 'settle for walking' over taking the Rabbit.

I want a 200cc 4T with EFI. Hopefully, that isn't too much to ask for.

I've gone to the dark side, and I want someone to buy my ZX-6r so I can get a GTS 300 Super Sport SE. I don't know when it happened, obviously sometime this year, but I desire a new scooter more than a new motorcycle. I think aliens might be involved.........

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Thu Nov 08, 2012 7:09 pm

Well, if the Rainbow Unicorn isn't coming within the next year, I need to get something. Since siobhan says the Rabbit isn't it, how about your Riva 200 az_slynch?

Syd, your timing is surprisingly good. I've been getting some crap about unloading the Riva after the lugnut incident and after a three-month downtime on it while tracking down some hard to find parts. I'm reluctant to do so. However, I have a second one that's mechanically solid but not nearly as pretty looking. Let me know if you're interested.

Mechanically sound? Oh, I'm interested. You got PM.
