will it be better than the enfield or will you have lambretta leg kicking it up?electrics ducatti electronica thats what you want ,not many people know that lambretta fitted a disc brake to the tv200/gt200 in 1963 one of the first manufactures to fit a disc brake on a 2 wheeler also they fitted some of the first electronic ignition systems on the 1969 gp200 electronic models had to put 2 wheeler as a scooter cannot be considered as being a bike!!have you bought mirrors and a fishtail parka ,in my day scooters were rode by punks with mohicans ,skinheads (scooterboys)rockabilly scooterists with quifs ,nowadays its back to the 60,s mod gear ,them scooters look like christmas trees!!lambrettas were slim and stylish without all that parafinailia!!jmo paul.(just my opinion)

Paul the TV175 first appeared in 62 along with the Campagnolo designed cable disc brake, indeed the first disc fitted to a two wheeled vehicle.The Enfields behaving quite well and started second kick after being stripped and turned upsidedown for its waxoyl session!
