I'd wanna keep that one for myself being a Malaguti and with that 2 gallon fuel tank. Just going from 1.4 to 2 gallons on my Triton has made it much nicer for riding. The Malaguti looks real nice next to the Roketa too. Don't let Yesterday be part of the past.

Thanks for the compliments fellas! Ya I really do like this scoot! Gotta be the best instant gratification there is- when you finish up and do the final buffing.... I detailed this baby out with a toothbrush... Then I took her for about an hour long ride- just puttering about and ended up going to the boat launch for some pics... I'm still kinda torn as what to do- would be a nice keeper scoot for $150 plus a little title work... I can just imagine the 90cc with those whitewalls and expansion chamber hanging off the side lol. Hmmm... decisions decisions! We're leaving tomorrow to go back up to Michigan for a week again- maybe I'll take that time to ponder Until then, this beautiful little machine has a spot right next to the Roketa!

I love finds like this. Of course I'm jealous that you found it and not me And I would certainly not sell it. That right there is a keeper.

Well, can't find any fault in that statement. Have you gotten anywhere with the title yet? You'll make a pretty penny with that flip for sure when you get it all sorted out.

That is a right pretty scooter if I had my passport updated I would head down to you in Florida and buy it off of you. It would look Killer at the car shows that my step dad goes to. An absolute kill

Excellent work niz, how bad was the top end? That scoots a beauty The top end was actually completely fine! Not even the tiniest little scratch... I cleaned it up and "hand honed" with 220 grit and reinstalled with no base gasket, no head gasket- my usual recipe!

Oh yeah I almost forgot to share this nifty little detail. The front chrome part of the scoot slides forward like a tray and the battery is in there! Crazy Italians!

I thought the oil reservoir was up there also.

Nope the oil reservoir is down under the seat in the typical location with a little removable hatch to get to it...

This is one of the most beautiful retro scooter i've ever seen. No matter what the price, i'm pretty sure it will go fast.
