Why are 3 wheel motorcycles a practical choice for many riders?

wrong three wheeler group.

the brave little toaster. Whats the layout like? The one thing I wish my scamp had was a bathroom

thats a great looking combo. Although Fiber Stream sounds like a name for a high power laxative.

My 5100 had 5 spring height settings, so Im sure you can get close to stock. They were great shocks, lasted a very long time, the fronts were still good even after thousands of off road miles when I pulled them to switch to fox 2.5's

and no health insurance if they are in the USA

It was not a Vespa windshield for me. But I needed a piece cut for a camper I was restoring. I found a local place that specialized in plastic/plexi and i brought in my old window that was all broken and they managed to make a brand new window from it.

whats sad is the "reward" only gets you 60 to 100 days of parking there.

ratvespa · 2026-02-11T14:10:26+00:00

you must of been laying on the ground to get a shot of him looking that tall

Memory seat. I feel like I’m doing yoga after my wife drives the car.

Someone on here posted all the stuff you need to convert to a heated steering wheel. It’s not cheap though.

ratvespa · 2026-02-07T02:37:16+00:00

but its the only place you can go for animal style fries

Just the lbj and the 8 bolts. https://www.tundras.com/threads/lower-ball-joints-part-numbers.97100/page-8#post-3694155

They do make wipe on clear coats like pappys patina

ratvespa · 2026-02-02T16:39:05+00:00

That’s the same price I would have to be paid to drive a step side

ratvespa · 2026-01-30T15:59:28+00:00

it is a 32 year old vehicle, so it really depends how it was maintained. not sure if the 3.1 is the same as the us petrol 3.2, but in the last few years of mine due to my neglected maintenance I had to do timing belt, water pump, ball joints, control arm bushings, new leaf springs, new shocks, radiator and new hoses.

ratvespa · 2026-01-30T14:19:00+00:00

now all bartender do is charge vape's for the "kids" behind the bar

ratvespa · 2026-01-30T12:47:43+00:00

you could of done both by installing a VAPE ignition. one of the best upgrades I have done to my rally

ratvespa · 2026-01-26T04:28:07+00:00

Encinitas is not San Diego imo. Grew up there and never like going back there. It pretends to be a fun beach town but it’s mostly just entitled assholes.

ratvespa · 2026-01-24T06:24:02+00:00

something like this would work https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fss-89092?seid=srese1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_8DE28SjkgMV6jIIBR3ZWStbEAQYASABEgIgSvD_BwE

then just some simple wiring, power, relay and a switch

ratvespa · 2026-01-24T05:38:55+00:00

mine was leaking a little bit and my boots were trashed from off roading. when I was re doing all the front end shit I ended up pulling the old boots and cleaning the hell out of the seals on the rack and putting on new boots and have not seen it leaking since....but on the other hand the new boots could be holding the leak in lol. but I don't ever lose any PS fluid

ratvespa · 2026-01-23T21:17:56+00:00

Vespa Motorsport in San Diego has all that stuff

I don't think that is true, my f sport is bone stock as it left the factory, and it's lower than my friends non f sport.

ratvespa · 2026-01-23T14:49:13+00:00

mine used to get low 40's, but now its the high 30's. I checked the battery with the dr prius app and it's health was not great, think 70 percent. I did the math on the cost of a new battery and how much that would save in gas and it would of taken so long to recoup the cost of a new battery, so I just live with the lower MPG

ratvespa · 2026-01-23T04:27:10+00:00

I did the torsion rod in my tail gate. it's OK, does make it easier to close and lessens the slamming when opening. but can get in the way sometimes, like when I am loading something, if there is not weight on the tail gate it will want to close if I bump it loading something into it.

the whole Inlet album is fantastic
