    I have one of the last 400 PX200 Serie Special imported into the UK in black and white with checker flag trim, carrying number 303, it has sat under covers from 2004 until 2 weeks ago when I serviced it, having watched your videos (thanks), then it took a little persuasion to start after adding fresh petrol, new plug and battery. I intend to ride it when this pandemic is over.

    Still have my 2004 LML (Stella in your country) 125cc kitted to 180cc with SIP 2 road Exhaust & upjetted and still love riding it here in the UK👍

    I have a fully stock / fully original P150X which I bought new in 1989 and has only clocked 18,000 genuine miles. With nil modifications or upgrades it will do 65 - 67 mph on the motorway, but the concern here is not the performance but rather safety aspects as these classic Vespas tend to be very unstable at higher speeds.

      Indeed, my Px Malossi 221 does 80mph but it"s scary as hell. I rarely go faster as 65.

    Why don’t current Vespas utilize a foot operated rear brake like the older models used to have? Actually, why don’t they make a foot operated brake to actuate both front and rear brakes simultaneously?
