I'm new to this forum. I own a 1980 Bajaj Chetak and from what I've read parts from a Vespa Sprint 150 will interchange. I want to upgrade the front Spring Shock and can't figure out the right one. I ordered a stiffer hi perfomance one for the Sprint and it seems to be much wider than the one on the scooter so I don't think it will fit correctly. Has anyone done this before? Any suggestions?

Kindly,
Vespaz]]> Vespaz Vintage Vespa Forum Sat, 12 May 2012 10:38:00 -0700 http://www.twostrokesmoke.com/phorum/read.php?2,149,149#msg-149 http://www.twostrokesmoke.com/phorum/read.php?2,149,149#msg-149
My question is how do you connect the HT Lead to the coil? It looks like it just ripped out and if I need to buy the coil with the lead attached already I will, but would like to find out if I have to make that purchase at all.

This is the model I have and everything is the same just the wire isn't attached.

I'm assembling a vespa from the ground up and my question is....
Do I even need a battery? It's not an electric start I can't find a place holder for it and it's not in any books.

Regarding the cost of the "smallies", it can be so "all of the map", as we say here. It just depends on the condition. This Blue Badge 150, I paid $800 USD.

You are doing a great work with that floor panel i'm not so professional to doing this kind of works 8-)
Just out of curiosity..how much does a common Vespa (such as 125 Primavera) cost in USA?]]> fabiano.penazzo Vintage Vespa Forum Mon, 16 Apr 2012 10:21:18 -0700 http://www.twostrokesmoke.com/phorum/read.php?2,104,129#msg-129 http://www.twostrokesmoke.com/phorum/read.php?2,104,129#msg-129 Sorry, do not speak Italian, that's why it is so bad? However, I do have a half a shot at Spanish. Thanks for that new link. Do you know about SIP....although German, I've bought sheet metal replacements part from them and are of excellent quality.
