New Lambretta V-Special – analysis | FEATURE

 A friend recently told me about a common discussion on marketing degree courses… Imagine that you are the boss of CocaCola and you have a choice of two possible nightmare scenarios: Overnight, every Coca-Cola factory in the world is subjected to a simultaneous terrorist attack that stops production or…Your factories are fine but overnight, everyone completely forgets […]

Motochimp are you prone to PMD? | FEATURE

       So what is PMD…or rather, what is a PMD? It’s actually a Powered Mobility Device and in this case like most, it’s a battery powered one.   SLUK contributor OlaDele Akinsehinwa has been on his travels to Singapore and whilst there managed a preview of a quirky new scooter-like PMD called Motochimp.

A year on a Vespa PX 125 | Feature

I’m sure many of us started our riding and rally going journeys using a humble 125cc scooter. Most will have passed our tests and moved on to quicker machines, better equipped to cover long distances (or not as the case may be).  As such, it seems a strange decision for a regular rally stalwart to choose to […]

VCB Two Channels Dash by Bollag Motos Vespa | FEATURE

A vintage Douglas built Vespa may not be most people’s first choice when it comes to a 280 mile round trip.
