Congrats on the new scoot. I know basically nothing about Vespas. Check out my Guide To 2 Strokes for some general information. HERE'S a link to a manual for a Sprint. |

The sprint is a real nice machine with a strong vintage shape, the good points are your bike should not loose a penny and if looked after could even go up in value and your going to have the coolest scooter in town. The bad points are that your gonna need to be real good at scooter mechanics or have a really big wallet as parts for these are quite expensive. A lot of people who ride vintage scooters often convert to a more modern engine for better performance and reliability. All in all you’ve got a dam sexy scooter and a proper retro one at that there’s a whole world of modifications, tuning parts and accessories to buy so look after it and have fun. One of these baby’s right?  |
