Hi.
I decided to stop any constuction about LRL. The reason.... i have many workable lrls so no reason to spend more time for them. It is time for more treasure hunting so to "see" the results of lrls. Also there are a lot of other things to spend my time. What are these?? look the photo and you will understand.

Regards

With many workable LRL´s you will be able to buy many Vespa´s for your collection! Soon you will be like Saddam and his golden cars collection.
Good luck !

Hi Morgan.
I own this Vespa (150 sprint Velote) from 1979. The other moto is a BMW R75/5 and i am the owner since 1982. Also i have a Horex Regina 400cc 1954 model at good working condition and a matchless 500. Of course a Sachs 50cc and a Zundap 50cc. Now i try to buy a Zundap 750cc (green elephant) from WW2.
I am happy that you have the same hobby. Do you have problem with spares???

Regards

Hi Geo

Spares for old motorcycles,it depends if is rare or not. I have Matchless too 1956,easy to find spares,but for my French TerroT175cc from 1928 not so easy...
Sorry to put bikes here in LRL forum
I take this photo with moto in the place where Geo try the Alonso´s PD,where we dig the aluminium target near the road,now transformed in one new street...

regards

Congratulations on your Vespa rebirth, Geo.

What about your driving licence?

What are you meaning about "my driving licence" ???
I have driving licence for all motos.
Vespa is 150cc so at Greece i need the big driving licence.
Or... do you mean about the "papers" of Vespa??

I was only curious what driving licence you need for Vespa. In my young days Vespa was treated like bicycle - no driving licence needed. But now, I am not sure about actual regulations.

At Greece if the moto is 50cc you don't need driving licence, but for every bigger than 50cc you need. I don't know exactly what is happening today
