Et2 Ferrari Trubute Project

Hello guys,

i can't stop buying scooters!!! This is my last cacht:

2000 Vespa Et2:



This ped will be completely repainted Red ferrari, probably keeping the inner panels black for the moment and see if i like them.
for now i've bought black zip sp wheels, new belt, brake pads and crank bearings:

front suspension:

clear lenses:

and new seat:


still to come:
Polini sport 70cc (later to become corsa opening the exhaust port)
malossi full circle crank
malossi MHR overange kit
stage6 clutch
alarm
ans some other bits

 

why not! i know you can have cheaper cranks (pms, bgm, stage6) but i'd like to help the Italian economy

 

You won't need to upgrade the crank for the polini kit mate

 

i'm doing it to keep my doors opened for a LC conversion with a MAlossi Mhr rep 70cc kit (that i have already)
and the existing xrank is 12 years old, a new one is needed anyway, i will use this scooter for 15-20 miles everyday

 

probably...but no regrets already bought it...

 

would like to see how this turns out..

 

today it didn't rain that often and funny enough i've received the order from AJSutton placed a month ago.
so i've fitted the black front black wheel and the clear lenses. already a massive difference for me

 

so fortunately 1 day without rain here so jumped outside and keep working!
this is how i left it a couple of days ago:



before starting with the visuals i had to do a heart transplant:



i forgot to take a picture of the Polini 70cc fitted...
then new double layer malossi sponge:

then disconnect and remove oil tank (leaving the sensor attached of course) and up-jetted to run the 70cc, pre-mix and malossi filter. I found a 86 main jet (it's a dell'orto 13mm) i fitted a 118, i think is too big but it's the only one over 100 i had.

then i changed the rear wheel and itted new brake shoes:


i left the rac 12v impact gun for those saying that it cannot remove it....
i've also fitted an after market exhaust with an original look but it sounds better then standard (video)


that's it for today

 

i like the way the vespa exhaust look rather than than that one

 

if im right thats a tecnigas aftermarket exhaust?

 

this makes a better sound and it's lighter (performance wise it will probably be the same), i will see how it will look with all the plastic on, if too close i'll put the original back

 

2 days ago i sanded and primed the whole bike

 

Wouldnt it be easier to take the panels off to paint?

 

duggie the vespa doesnt have panels mate

 

this is after few coats:


still have to smoothing it up and apply lacquer
