Vespa P210 Polini


This is my p2,i have had it since 1990 when it was two years old. It was in a poor state, it had been dropped and also had a knock in the engine, this turned out to be collapsed smallend bearings which had screwed the crank and piston. The pictures were taken in 1994 i had respayed it in 91 and had fitted a polini 208 kit and had a new crank. I used it on and off until 2002 then started to strip it to do it up but never got on with it until last year (see vespapirate.blogspot.com).
