Here's the statement from Clag International Ltd. (CLAG) and Motom Electronics Group S.p.a. (MEG) concerning why they own the rights to sell the LN 150 and LS 150:

Since SIL has long owned all the rights to the Lambretta name, statement 1 is true.
The question is if statements 2 and 3 are true.
If they are, then CLAG and MEG clearly have the rights to sell the LN/LS 150.
And the "Lambretta Consortium" are a bunch of snake-in-the-grass lawyers who go around trying to steal old trademarks.
(My apologies to the snake species for associating them with these scum).
It would be good if SIL issued a statement concerning who they have licensed the scooter rights to. But that would be too simple.
Let's hope statements 2 and 3 are correct and these new Lambrettas get into volume production.
Since CLAG and MEG seem to be producing scooters that actually look like Lambrettas, I'm rooting for them.
But I do hope they can get the price down a bit.

Don't hold your breath for the Lambretta LN to show up in the US for at least another year or two.
