Brilliant! I’ve always wondered about the best way to break in a new engine….now I know!
Superb and not a stupid hump back leather and shiny knee sliders in sight 😎👍
Brilliant series of videos, really enjoyed watching them and have now made the decision to go with the Scootopia 185 kit after deliberating over a few options. Keep it up ✊
KFC 😂
I was dragged up on motorbikes and I can remember my Dad's older brother having a Lambretta. I think what you have done is capture the exact essence of why most two wheeled enthusiasts ride, it isn't a leisure thing for those that love it, its an intimate knowledge of the machine and the satisfaction of getting an unloved example in regular use. Anyone can buy a machine and throw it in the shop for services, but then you never really get to know it. I've loved watching your content and I can't wait for the results of the 1000m trip to drop.
@@iamthefatstig cheers mate!…
Love seeing older bikes put back to use carry on that man
THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT
Watched it again & loved it again. Got the blues bros reference at the beginning. Always got my eye for an old Lammy S3 but as you know they are few & far between & crazy expensive. Yeah watch out for the old music playing in the background trick... Karen award, excellent! I get stick from 'real' adv/motorcyclists when I'm out on my ct. Funny thing though, I've ridden 1000's of kms on dirt roads & never seen one of them. But at the local cafe.... Bring on the dyno!
Intrested in this great video.
Excellent...😊....real entertainment 🤗
@@happyhermit2022 cheers fella!!…
Well done that man.
Wow, your lights are brilliant compared to my GPs. Awesome videos.
YOU ARE DANGEROUS!!! KEEP ON BEING DANGEROUS, WE LOVE YA!
Ha! 😃 👍🏼
I absolutely love your videos…what a great mixture, so different from a lot of other TH-cam videos!! For a moment there I thought you were actually “Sticky”!!!!!!!!
Keep up the good….KTF….KFC….Lol
Brilliant vids mate, certainly made me chuckle. Thanks for sharing 👌
The #22 is a really really neat bike. Custom made handlebar set is sick. 😎
Fair play to the lad on the cutdown with drops, rare sight these days.
He’s young… his knees can take it!
Brilliant thank you so much great content.
Apologies if your comments have ‘disappeared’… I uploaded this last night but had to take it down/delete it edit it re upload this morning due to a music copyright ‘hit’
In the do!.. it’s just taken 5 hours to upload again… wtf!
That explains why I watched it this morning & then after that, I couldn’t find it!!!!! OMG
Came acros ur vid of the orignal paint but abandon 40 odd years. Had to have a look at ur rescue of this lambretta and ride to belgium and home.
U make great vids .and ur funny too. Keep on been dangerous.
Fantastic, loved the dramas what a great community.
Watched it again.... 😊😊😊😊
Still brilliant...
Ha! Thanks! 👍🏼…. Up load nightmare!!!
Really enjoyed all 3 parts on this and looking forward to part 4. Well put together, great filming and good skills on the tools. Some lovely people in cameo at the rally etc *subscribed *
I haven't had this much fun watching stuff on TH-cam in ages! Both your personality and your filmmaking skills are very, very good (I was in the business for quite some time...). And your mechanic skills are w-a-y above my pay grade! Yes, I subbed. And you will henceforth be known as "Olde Bloody Pehrvehrt." See you on the next video...and kfc.
Mint mint mint! This was an epic video man.
@@dxcomander cheers dude… the 2nd series is more epic-erer
@@teampacemaker 🤣
Brilliant video…new subscriber looking forward to the next one
My dad had a Lambretta when he was in France during the Berlin Crisis.
Great series and love your suck it and see attitude to building your scooter. Look forward to more builds and adventures. The only part you need to fish the scoot off is the Chelsea toolbox door 😎👌🏾
Ha!… maybe when I find the right scooter! 💙
What an amazing series of 3 videos. Absolutely loved them all. You encapsulated all that is involved in getting these pains in the arses on the road and enjoying the adventures on them. You caught the atmosphere of the ride there the rally and the ride back. Was anyone like me just waiting for the engine to die on you 🤣🤣. Brilliant film making. Can’t wait till the next ones ❤❤
Looks great fun,enjoyed watching it, I wish I had the bottle to trust mine that far, maybe one day.
Thanks, enjoyed every minute. Looking forward to more
Great series, have loved watching your videos and brought back memories of when I last rode a scooter in way back in 1986, an Italian 125 DL. Now a subscriber :)
Cheers fella… its never too late to get back on that horse… 🐴👍🏼
@@teampacemakerHave done it, bought a 150 Special ‘Project’. Here goes 😊
@@derekwalton6498 excellent!!! 👍🏼👍🏼… great news..well done, you know it makes sense! 😃, enjoy… good choice of lambretta too!
My advice is only change what needs to be changed… original parts are far superior quality to remade stuff….
@@teampacemakerthat’s exactly what I intend to do. If I ever got confident at videoing, I may even post my progress 😂
@@derekwalton6498 do it do it!- everyone likes a restoration video!…
My other piece of advice would be to buy sticky’s spanner’s guide manual…
Good luck! 💙
And this is why I love scootering … fantastic video and you can’t beat riding in Europe.. keep up the good work … KFC
Cheers fella!…
One thing I do enjoy is watching people tackle real good restoration project, which the Lambretta was, & seeing the reliablity of the end result GREAT JOB DONE. I am not a real scooterman, (having riden full sized tyred motorcycles most of my life) but I brought a Piaggio mp3 earlier this year! having never riden any 3 wheel vehicle or scooter powered engine with twist and go. The mp3 suprised me with it's pick up from the lights / junctions over a trad motorcycle, it has given me a different out look on scooter style motorcyles (I can say that becouse anything based on two wheels is classed as motorcyle (tax disc reasons) & the Piaggia designer hated yes motorcycles 🤣. I admire the community sprit of both sides of the two wheel camp (may I also add in MC club a member Len would turn up on his 90cc Honda Cub This was the 1980's and treated with respect at our camping rallies.
Great build and great vids. Proper scootering!👍👍
Brilliant trio of video's , excellent rebuild stuff and a cracking adventure- all credit to you good sir ;)
Thank you my man 👍🏼… 😍
Bloody loved this, thanks for filming and sharing mate. Looking forward to the next one 👍👍
Thank you so much, I was suffering brain drain and was definately loosing the plot here with my latest woes until I saw this, you have gone a long way to restoring my faith, brilliant well done. I'm
Thanks!… I don’t know what your woes are… but keep moving forward… you’ll get there in the end.. you only fail if you give up?… kfc!
Banging memories
Bloody excellent three videos, loved watching them..the last one was the icing on the cake though, It was a very enjoyable watch, looked like a good crack that trip !
Cheers fella! 👍🏼
8:07 that looked like the lunch of champions. What an adventure. Great video. 👍🏼
Hey bugger TH-cam and it's lousy comments. What you do is proper top it's the very essence of scootering. this is well appreciated! Keep The Faith! It'l NEVER be over for us
Cheers mate ! … watch the next series… think it’ll be even better… 🤔🫣😄
I really enjoyed that, thank you.
All 3 parts?… 👍🏼
I didn't watch part 1 yet because you came up randomly, I did enjoy part 2 as well, I'm not a scooter person generally (MT09), I subscribed though, great content.@@teampacemaker
@@misscrabstick ha! Fair play 👍🏼 cheers…
7:53 E-type! 3.8? BEAUTIFUL! (said Enzo Ferrari, upon seeing it on its launch at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961). He loved Mini's (real ones) too. Bet he also had a Lambretta! :0)
Loved the Blues Brothers reference at the beginning of this video. Nice scooters at that meetup including yours!
Well done that man
cracking vid - so jealous of ability and how well she ran!
Nice, nice, nice. Thank you very much 🤗.
Excellent , dont how I got here but that was so much fun to watch Thank you It Reminded me of when we were given a 150 Lamberetta in 1983 that had sat in a neighbours garage for about 25 years undercover, it even ran on the petrol in the tank even if it was a bit stinky at the time, I really didnt want my Dad to sell that it was beautiful and a rare thing to see these days. We also had an old 3 speed 50cc post office bike that had very similar gearing on it.
Love the patternation on the scooter, please dont paint it.
Thanks again.
No… definitely not getting painted!
Thanks ever-so-much for sharing your build & adventure. It ws fantastic to watch. I really admire you mechanically minded people who can strip, repair, re-build everything. I loose nuts just changing a wheel. Your lambretta looks & sounds great. Your little tent was pretty cool too (where can i get one ?). Thanks again for a great trilogy. 😊
Great video love it 👌
Absolutely brilliant video’s mate, keep up the excellent work…… oh and keep the vids coming 👍💪
Nice one! Love your videos, keep em coming!
Nice one. Does make me miss my old Serveta. Maybe one day...
What a great video and amazing project!! Bravissimo!❤
Loved it. Ace to see all those old LI 1 s and old Sportiques. Cant work out why there were no BSA Sunbeams or Triumph Tigressses, or even a Tina, can you ? All the best Keith.
Bsa’s, Sunbeams and all the other British iron are not that common here because lack of parts.
Subscribed....great couple of videos.
Great watching the last 3 part series , hope you do more similar , cheers
Barn find… will it start and ride 1000 miles….Coming soon….
Best thing i did was fit an LED headlight conversion kit to my LI 150 series 2. Expensive but fantastic when riding at night.
Absolutely fantastic.
I bet they loved you riding round the campsite at turned 11 pm! 😂
Everyone was in the do!
Great set of videos loved them cant wait for more
Cheers fella… yep iv just unloaded the new project -uk barn find lambretta that hasn’t been on the road for 44 years!…(great history too!)… just got to do some real work to pay the mortgage then get on it in a few weeks time…😊
Loved the video series, top job, very entertaining indeed. Keep it up..... Please?
I’m on it…..
I'm a time traveler because I'm sure I watched this last night 👀 Watched again though :D
You did… I had to take it down because of a copyright hit (music at the do)… and re edit it.. I tried to up load it this morning and it took till 2pm to unload/get checked/approved !!!
@@teampacemaker ah that’s fair enough buddy 👍🏼 bloody copyright rubbish strikes again…
Brilliant, great video,top man 👍
Cheers dude 👍🏼
Superb 😊
Well done!
It's Smithy at the end, power to the people of the Tooting popular front. (Something like that, it was a long time ago)
😄😄
Something about Lambretta and Vespa bringing the best out of people!
You should try Faro motorcycle event in Portugal I heard is very good, brilliant vid love it
Really?… I’ll look it up!…
Brilliant!
Great vids mate. Hello from Sydney.
Ha! Hi … nice one 👍🏼
Loved this, subbed 😊
Brilliant Nobby keep up the great work but keep Adam out the pictures 😉😂😂
😮😁
Quality vid mate, love it..
Cheers fellas!…. 💛
marvellous
Hell yeh !! ❤
Keep them Videos coming KTF-KFC ✊🏻
What a hoot
wicked series, and clearly some good times have been had. On a side note. ( what kind of tent is that your hooking up to your bike? ;)
Abel and brown motorcycle tent…. Packs up ultra small because there’s no poles… here’s my review- don’t bother if
A) you have a scooter
B) there’s any chance of rain
C) there’s any chance of wind 💨
D) you are planning to camp for more than one night…
E) there’s more than one of you
Other than that it is very well made, light ,small and looks cool!….
Much appreciated, and great review, I hadnt considered factor D... I am sold ;)@@teampacemaker
Excellent videos, only remark is the spoken parts are considerably quiter than the music sections which has me adjusting the Volume quite a bit. Loved the Rally footage and hoep you had a good time (I was on the rat blue and white Series 2 with the leopard skin seat cover and the Texaco -sticker on the side)
Hi 👋🏼, yes it was a cool weekend!.. and I’m possibly going this year but not 100% yet (new venue looks good 👍🏼).
Re the sound- you are actually the first person to mention this.. and I was watching this back not long ago on a laptop and I thought the same thing… however iv not noticed it watching on the tv or my smartphone.. I will look into that… what did you watch it on? , was it every spoken part on all the videos? Or just this one?… obvs the spoken parts are part of the video and the music is laid over the top… will definitely investigate this as that is annoying!
Brilliant stuff, found your channel via a comment on cobweb garage vid. Played catch up watching all of your vids, liked the lot & subscribed. Considering I'm a 1984 Vespa PX owner/amateur mechanic I do watch a hell of a lot of Lammy vids & I wouldn't have it any other way, they are stunning looking scoots, bit out of my price range though. However, your vids really do inspire the maybe I should look into getting hold of a basket case that would otherwise get scrapped mindset. Look forward to seeing more in the future, you've got a really good style, I know how much work goes into film making as a one man outfit.
Cheers dude… re prices.. this ‘only’ cost £800 initially … and really the only bits missing were the wheels and hub’s which you can pick up cheap.. and of course because i didn’t need to spray it or do any bodywork it’s been a fairly cheap build…
@@teampacemaker £800 wow that's very interesting! I do have a look on that lambretta finder website (the Belgian one I think) every now & then. Cheers for the info.
fucking awesome vid man best one ive seen in a very long time
Cheers 👍🏼
Quality production , content, workmanship prior to journey. Did you suffer from snett lumbago lol.😂
Great series of videos 😎 I could have dealt out 100's of Scooter Karen awards 😂😂😂
Thanks Rob!, I look forward to roasting more scooter Karen’s in the future… this guy seemed to be a bit miffed that I hadn’t welded rubber mat to the legshields like I said I was going to 🤷🏼♂️😃
Ha ha
Brilliant...can i ask what your tent was...it looks great.

A) you have a scooter
B) there's any chance of rain

Bonjour! Just had a bit of a binge watch after stumbling across your channel. Was great to see a lot of the Roadrunners are still the same (albeit a bit difficult to recognise since I was in the club what with all the extra weight and grey hair lol)
Think you pulled it off re it not being the same old same old riding video 👍 I’m very quickly realising there’s only so much videos you can do of a headset (even if the scenery is stunning) if you’re a boring old feck like me.
Spooky thing… Had a message from somebody and they had a letter from the DVLA. Seems somebody wants to register an old lammy that is in my name still. Thing is, it went to an address that I lived in about 30 years ago and it was looking rough then and have no idea what happened to it. Whether I gave it away, sold it, or left it somewhere. Pretty sure I just let somebody have it though. I tended to do stupid stuff like that back then 😣
Ha!, hi Dave, yes the roadrunners are still going strong (most of them!) the ride comment was really to stop people from turning off at the start knowing there was 30 mins to go!… what lammy was it?… No ones mentioned about registering/finding a lambretta lately ?!… mind you it capillary be out of the area?…
@@teampacemaker Well, it worked! At least, it did for me lol
‘My’ lammy was a li150. I’m thinking I gave it to somebody from Thame tbh. Know I def gave them a PX200 (I did a lot of sofa surfing at theirs over the years lol) so that would make sense.
Ah. Forgot to say. I saw that you did everything on your phone? That’s bloody impressive! I’ve just spent over a week trying to transfer and edit footage from my GoPro and am on the verge of throwing everything out the window (but I guess that’s what happens when you try and edit 4k on an iPad/iPhone/laptop that first saw action on the ark)🙄
MFI 🖖🏾
All are welcome to Waasmunster Lambretta weekend. It’s a very nice weekender with lots of familiar faces. And yes, Belgian beers are have a healthy alcohol content 😂
See you later on this year…
Great 3 part video, really enjoyed it
Only question I have is what headlight or bulb did you use please
Just a normal standard 12v headlight bulb and headlight… but I was using a 120amp bgm stator though
I once lost an oil drain plug ,I used a cork from a wine bottle to get me home
😂😂😂…. It’s not a bodge if it works??
Well being a lambretta rider makes you a master bodger
True dat!
Intrested to see the dyno results,what setup are you running.
Will post another vid this month hopefully!…
Nice one TP fella... KFC
🍗✊🏻
really interresting things,love the way you try to keep all originals parts
Two questions from my side,definitively don't need spare wheel anymore?and front drum brake is enought ?
Front drum brakes are great if they are set up right and you have decent shocks and springs 👍🏼
I took 2 inner tubes with me (and tools)… I didn’t want to risk trying to bolt a spare wheel holder to the rusty legshields/bolts… and that rear rack was one I had already and i didn’t want to shell out for another!
Great video! What song is playing at around 24 minutes?
‘Rock the party’ by Denis….
It’s a royalty free track…
@@teampacemaker thank you. What a tune!
Great videos. What headlamp/bulb are you using? Really bright lights! 🙂
Cheers dude…
just a normal old school 12v bulb and new remade standard front light!… i few people have asked that! But nothing special… I am using a 120w bgm stator though… which could well be the difference?…
@@teampacemaker Thanks. I guess 120w is the way to go. Looking forward to part 4. I’ve got the Scootopia kit waiting to be built up this winter, so interested in your set up.
Awesome series geezer…
Don’t supose this bretta will be going up for sale by any chance?
Now subscribed 🤙🏻
After the dyno it could well be yes… i don’t have much room…
@@teampacemaker awesome could well be interested.. keep up the awesome vlogs🤙🏻
You should have been wearing goggles when you lifted that sledge hammer.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Stop it!!… the scooter Karen of the month award is still open you know!
What camera are you using?
Mate…. I’m doing it all- all filming, editing, sound, music, story boards on an iPhone 13 Pro… does it show??
@teampacemaker238 love the videos and the style you edit them can't wait for the next one mate. Keep up the good work 👏👏👏👍
Didn’t see many number plates. We’re most of the scooters from the UK?
@@terrybarton8388 mostly Belgium and uk… with some Germans
Whats that tune you used for the rideout scene in Belgium mate ?
@@nelly851 the reggae one ?
@teampacemaker yes mate
@ Jah Rastafari-
One Wave , it is a copyright free tune though so I’m not sure if/where you’d find it other than TH-cam?
@teampacemaker thanks for that mate !
Fantastic videos and a great journey, but can anyone explain 11:59 to my 19-year-ols son?
Thanks 🙏🏼… but no… no explanation really… just scooter boys being scooter boys…
