Simonini Killercase 260 | FEATURE
We often get to see what the big boys are up to around the world but some of the smaller, or less well-known scooter tuners, shops and ‘in the shed’ builders get overlooked. It’s good to know what’s happening in the crazy world of scooter tuning though – if you’re an overlooked genius get […]
Long termer: Vespa GTS Supertech Speedwheel dyno | FEATURE
We mentioned having a Kübler Speedwheel fitted in our last Long Termer report and told you what our first impressions were. Now we’ve had time to use the GTS for a couple of extra months we thought it was worth bringing you an update.

Last week we shared part one of Australian, Bill Kesteren’s European scooter adventure holiday in Almeria. In part two Bill and friends wave goodbye to sunny Spain and head to the wetness of Croatia, via a short stop off in damp Venice. One thing you can never plan your whole life around is the […]
J&G Vespa 200 cylinder conversion for the PX125 | FEATURE
Geoff on his 208cc Vespa PX125 Unless you know better, French scooterboy Guy-Francois Evrard – known to his British friends as Geoff – has become the first to achieve the impossible. He has successfully fitted a large-block Vespa 200 cylinder onto the Vespa PX125 casings. OK, it’s obviously not impossible, but it is […]

Part 1: Col’s 1989 Scooter Rally Flashbacks | NOSTALGIA
I’ve had a really enjoyable rally season in 2019. With eight National Rallies and a superb custom show in Alfreton it made it a year to remember. Strangely I said exactly those words 30 years ago this month back in 1989 at the end of another memorable year on two wheels.
Part 1: Saigon Scooter Centre – North Vietnam Ride 2019 | FEATURE
Friday the first of November sees us with a quick two-hour flight up to Hanoi – the capital. Nice and early so we can get all the scoots unloaded and over to the hotel. As per last year, we are checked in to the Thang Long Opera Hotel, which was the same hotel we […]

Ron Daley Vespa Rally specials | FEATURE
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, new two-stroke scooters were once easy to buy and cheap to own. You could visit your local scooter shop and get HP on a new Vespa, ride it for a few years and then pretty much give it away. They were affordable and replaceable, almost as disposable as a Chinese […]
