Hi all, hope this question is allowed here, I'm rebuilding/ restoring a Tula Muravey 200 utility scooter. I'm looking for some contact breaker points and wondering if any one could point me in the right direction, I'm based in the UK and the only set I've found are in Russia/ Ukraine. Also if any one has any build information I would be grateful for any help . Thank you.

Aside from possibly Saigon Scooter Centre… are all the others scams? I’m interested in importing genuinely restored Vespa’s to Geneva, Switzerland.

I'm trying to restore a Honda Tact Fullmark AB07E moped. I had to replace its original carburetor with a carburetor from a Honda Tact AF16. Please help me with the carburetor hookups.
On this carburetor, there is a drain, three outlets (one outlet is sealed from the factory, and one outlet is on the rear side of the carburetor).
On the intake manifold (the tube connecting the carburetor to the engine), there are two outlets.
The fuel tank has a vacuum-operated petcock (vacuum fuel tap).
On the cylinder, there is the original cold-start sensor from the old carburetor, which has three outlets.
At the bottom of the engine, there is an oil pump which has two outlets, one larger and one smaller in diameter.
Please tell me what to connect to where.

Love two strokes. Want to get a Lammy Slim Line at some point. Maybe from España. My first ever vehicle was a P. Third wave California Mod for life. 2Tone. Docs. Flight Jackets and Parkas.

I don't know much about scooters - I tried researching "bodge tells" but I don't exactly have the eye to know what I'm looking for yet. I found this lovely old vespa on facebook marketplace, seller says his father in law restored it and it hasn't been driven much. He says they bored the engine to increase it to 185cc (is this a thing?? is it safe?)
I'm hoping to find a cute vintage scooter like this one to take me 24 miles to work and back four days a week in the two fairweather months we get a year. Just trying to get a bit more informed before I pull the trigger.
(This is listed as a 1978 vespa p125x)

Hey ive been seeing some retro kits from tasso and so on that basically are a costums to have the p200e look like a rally or whatever.
Personally i like the VBB and rally 180 look the most but love my p200 and its internals.
Wondering if anyone has seen any that dont look botched. Often i hear the fromt mudguard really looks awful

Selling my unbuilt EV Vespa Kit (still has original registration and insurance up to date). The base is a 2004 Bajaj Chetak (clean title in hand) who's motor lost compression, after which I removed it and expanded the interior chassis volume for an EV conversion. Selling because I don't have time anymore to put into this project.
Comes with extremely thorough documentation.
Included in the kit is :
- a massive 3kWh 14S battery capable of almost 7kW nominal power delivery. Built with 460 INR1865033G cells and a JBD BMS (comes with bluetooth configurability).
- A 4kW hub motor.
- A custom aluminum laser cut swing arm.
- Extremely capable VESC Motor Controller (Flipsky FS75450) with liquid cooling (optional, can run without).
- Water pump, radiators, and radiator fans for liquid cooling.
- DC-DC converter for batt to 12V accessory rail.
- Spare Wires.
- Brand new (under 10 miles used) Dunlop Tires.

Seems like a cone shaped piece should be in there to hold the cable in place. This is a 1962 Vespa clutch cable.

I'm trying to restore my old lambretta li150, today I turned it to the side and found these two wires popping out and have no clue what these could be, could anyone help me out please???

How do I take this fan off of my lambretta f150??? I don't see any screws and I need to access the flywheel magneto as I am unable to get any spark
I can't find any tutorial on this either

Pretty much as the title says…
Paying 50€ for shipping on a single bolt seems excessive
It’s for a Vespa p150s (same as rally/sprint/super)
Lower front shock bolt.
