After a conversation with my fellow club mate at the Glevum Stax scooter rally last year the topic of his Honda powered Lambretta he had built a number of years ago, That he used for a good few years, put plenty of mikes on it then stopped using it as he wanted to modify and change a couple of bits !!!!
I nudged him and asked if it would up for sale ....Nooooooooo he said it'll used again at some point and so that conversation ended...
Early February this year I had a message asking if I would still be interested in his Honda powered Lambretta......Of course ...yes blinkin please....
So after some conversations regarding a fair sum to for the said machine I travelled to collect, hear it run then load various parts replacement parts and take some valuable advice ....
Two and half months (roughly) of stripping, making new parts/bushes, a good friend doing some fabrication, ordering, powder coating, paint and then assembly...
The Lamonda was finally fired into life....
Wow ....What a noise, with the power valve operating and making the engine snarl even more its ready for some abuse on the open road..........
Blinkin flip this is what funs about on a lairy silly 2 stroke motor in 10" wheeled scooter.....
Lambretta s3 modeled on a TV175 ( but wearing a GP mudguard due to the fork set up )
Honda CRM250 water cooled 6 speed engine
Pictures to follow......
