This is just awesome…I own a zx12r which is quick, but I’m willing to bet this is a whole lot more fun!! Fair play to these guys, take something small and make it mental, love this sort of engineering and you just can’t beat a crazy 2 stroke….I would absolutely love to own something like this!
@@ScooterLabUK I need this beast in my like, always been a biker but really fancy a quick scooter like this!! Good work 👍 message me if it’s for sale..😊
@@Danpiper09 that’s just where the wheel is pushing on the drag of the roller the torque. The front won’t lift on dybo hence looks like that and pushes up on suspension otherwise on rd nose pops up as not tethered. Awesome bike sounds so great
RD 125 LC with 180cc kit did that nicely with gas only. I have ridden that. I have owned 125 and 250 RD LC's too, 1984 and 1982, but they needed clutch to wheelie.
yyyeeeeeesss. 125 two strokes have insane power to size, weight and power to displacement. 250 singl cylinders are nice but a higher revving twin cylinder 250 would, and does have like and extra 30 percent power increase. I love it
This build is craaaazy!!! Props for getting it dialed in to run so smooth! I'd reinforce the frame some under the footrest as this area is very prone to snapping after a couple of hundred wheelies ^^
Impressed, nice to hear a 2 stroke on song, just before the 1st lockdown in the UK, I was at Cadwell Park race circuit for the classic bike racing which included scooters, I could hardly believe what I was seeing, the speed and how they were throwing them around was amazing.

Amen..to the the engineering work of art comment,.like a Japanese wrist watch,precision engineering without the flowery but unnecessary touches of a Swiss watch..elegance and function 🇬🇧
In respect to the aprillia, most barrels are now being used with the portgeometry from the rsa125 which had 56 hp, hence I'd change the barrels to that of the rsw/rsa and release the full 110 hp that the rsw 250 makes
Very, very impressive. I got me first license endorsement on an LD150 in 1969 when I was just 15 years old, and didn't actually have a license. I am not sure that I'd have survived owning something like this while still in my teens.
@@nickcoppard5335 I was 15, and year away from getting a bike license. For some reason I had painted a big LD on the front of the scooter with the L on one side and the D on the other. When the cop overtook me he saw the red L and thought it was a learners L-plate and because he hadn't seen one on the back, he stopped me. He was not a dick about it, but he did make me push the bike home which was five miles away, and the first bit was up a steep hill. That turned out to be too hard, so I jumped on and rode it home as fast as I could using back roads where possible.
@@TrevorDennis100 ah the good old days ! Going back 55 yrs reg the local cop used to bung my bike in the back of his moggie van and take me home , all the locals loved that cop , now its go to jail for anything , trouble is now once they secure a load of stupid convictions the lads today just get much worse
i hope you enjoyed your stay in Italy! love to see some mad projects like this one, here there are really few people into the cars/bike aftermarket scene unfortunately :)
That’s nuts! The way it takes off at 8,000rpm reminds me of my Kawasaki KR-1. I go along with the small, pokey bike thing. I have 2 x Honda 250RS singles, into which I’ve squeezed 500 singles, with hi-comp pistons, pod filters and unrestrictive exhausts. Good for 110!
@@ScooterLabUK oh well that makes sense , cause you can see the engine is just not the run of the mill japper and of course Italy the home of Lambaretta !
Amazing engineering , how fast once the crash bars back rest and mirrors are on it ,plus wind resistance from a nice fly screen and a parka ? Can see a massive problem though getting flies out of your teeth with an open face lid ? Perhaps keep a tooth brush in the tool roll ??
I was at the Italian bike show in November 2009-one of the stands had a 500cc 4 cylinder 2 stroke scooter on show…….I will have to dig out the pictures I took of it. This one sounds like my Yamaha TZ250 when it comes on the pipe, and produces much the same power-nuts on a short wheelbase and small wheels!
My brother had a yamaha td2 twin flattracker 250cc 70hp 200lbs it was scary fast. Revved to the moon has a dry clutch abd chrome lined cylinders. Reed valve intakes and right side shifter .
You Guys will not have heard of me, but you will know of my Work. I am now 71 Years old, and way back in 1965 I was the originator of the Lambretta 'Strip down' Scooter design, that you lot call a 'Skeleton'. They were going for £15 a time then (TWO weeks Apprentice Wages), so I had no problem chopping them down on the Steering column, removing the body shroud, fitting a single seat, tiny tank and making what you now call the "Kneeler". I got bored with having my Scooters stolen, so swapped the first one for a genuine British Royal Enfield Bullet with a Glasgow Gallowgate bike dealer who was so pleased with the novelty of it, he started making them calling them "Lamb Chops". Just a little Scooter History that you would not know of. Its good to see you Folk keeping the Faith. Finally. Death to ALL Vespas !!! . .
I got a 250cc Lambretta from the 90s. Not a twin cam. Had an ST165 Toyota that I crashed running down the Seaham casuals. I was only a teenager at the time. I would have got bored on a 125 so they sold me a Lambretta and swapped the barrel on it. Fastest Learner plate bike I ever had.
The vicious, pull-your-arms-off power band of a 2T Honda CR500 transferred to a Lambretta isn't going to suit many. So, how about developing a lower revving exhaust system that gives far less top end but a much more linear delivery of power and torque? How about 45 BHP (more than enough for most!) but with tractability that even my missus could handle? This would be a similar concept to fitting a box exhaust rather than an expansion pipe on a "standard" tuned Lambretta engine. Exhausts designed for less volatile power delivery could also be more compact and might therefore resolve the obvious "packaging" issues of having two tin whales hanging under the motor. Like a box exhaust, they could be shaped to precisely conform to the shape of the engine.
Just in the way many sports cars are for most. It’s the pinnacle of scooter exotica but still cheaper than the cost of the upgrades an owner would typically spend on just the brake upgrades on a Ferrari.
With purposely jumbled up mechanisms to hold two scooters where sat one- engine, and the resultant scooter miracle on the original frame made to run with so much power : it is a definite amusement to the gate keepers of the Pearly gates at the end of the ride...
I helped a rude boy mate tweak his 250 Lambretta, the power band was terrifying, like riding a toilet at over 100 Kms but there was no allowance for pooping yourself & it wasn't 1/3 or this mini beast.
I should really get back into the 2T Scooter scene, so many advancements since i stopped modding/following the development, was in the Minareli circle. This Lambretta must be a blast, auto 2T were getting wicked fast many years back, like PMTuning's Italjet they held records with, If this had a inner rotor ignition setup and 35mm carbs it'd be wild, dare i say un-ridable even more so with wheelies

That small tyres, narrow roads, unpredictable brake, so much power from the engine, perfect last ride.
The brakes are actually realy good.
I hear yeha, been riding since I was five (48 now) and all my broken bones have come from scooter accidents!
I was thinking the same, seems ripe for failure
You could literally be going 20mph through an intersection and a careless driver make it your last ride.
But what a ride it would be
There's no clear limits for what a "widowmaker" is, but this is clearly at the center of that definition
So around the same power as a standard Lambretta until 8000rpm then it shoots to 76hp and kills you. I know my limits and that's WAY above them.
Christalive! That is nuts!!!
Absolute insanity!! 75 ponies on a step through! Couldn’t think of anything scarier 😮

@@ScooterLabUK I need this beast in my like, always been a biker but really fancy a quick scooter like this!! Good work 👍 message me if it’s for sale..😊
Big bikes are lame as fuck. Honestly. Bikes are about transitioning quickly. The smaller, lighter, shorter the wheelbase. The more bike it is.
@@DieselRamcharger fair enough…..I’m quite happy with all my bikes, just happened to appreciate this project.
@@conrod4910 sure big bikes are faster, smoother, more comfortable and better handling...... but are they as fun? ;)

Words from a true 2-stroke entusiast: the power is a bit on and of.
That thing looks super fun!

Fantastic work,congrats,but i can not see...where is the gear box?
Like all traditional Lambrettas the gears are on a hand shift. This one is 5-speed, originally they are 4.
Right lads!! Time for a twin TS1!! 450cc!! then we can use the rear tire to rotate the earth!!
No a twin cr500 cillinder engine 😂 1000cc 2 stroke powerrrrrrr
Best Lambretta EVER 100%!!!
Che figata! 💯🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😘👌🏻

now u need add this song and the video is gonna be gold "Scooter - Faster Harder Scooter" 👌👌 btw i love this litel monster :)
How many rear tyres to a tank?
What's the fuel/rubber mix ratio? At last 1:1, maybe better :)
Nice video looked a lot of fun. Less interested in the Dyno readings enjoyed the actual road filming and commentary
76 HP it’s such crazy in my country 🥶
It’s crazy in my country too :)
How the heck did they work out to remove the chain and switch to gears ,,brilliant ???
Bravo fantastic job
Perfect.
Big up ☠️
It sounds awesome
250 GP,FANTASTICA!!
What a beast but almost a sleeper to look at from a distance when parked up.
Remembering my modified Lambretta TX200 in the 1960's, What does it use for brakes?
This has a twin front disc and also a rear disc. Have a read of the accompanying article, there’s plenty of info.
Fokkin hell !! .. that intro and sound ❤
I'll stick to my little Ancilotti bap bap bap, thanks. That's insane but incredible!
I would Get out of your path...for sure 🤘👍🎼🌎🏴☠️💙🔥🏁
Can I ask out of interest as it revs so high and it’s using KART barrels and heads so does it need rebuilds every few 100 miles due to piston wear?
