- A 1979 Vespa 100 Sport review and walkaround video because it's time to sell my '79 Vespa, but before I let her go, I had to show you guys some of the really cool and unique features this 1970s Vespa has that today's modern Vespas don't.
Sometimes newer is better, but some of the old way of doing things was pretty cool and I wouldn't mind bringing it back. If you want some insight into what Vespas were like in the late 1970s, or if you specifically want to learn about the 1979 Vespa 100 Sport, check out this video review.
FULL WALKTHROUGH HERE: www.youmotorcy...
In the 1979 Vespa 100 Sport Review I cover the following:
- Introduction: The Vespa 100 Sport has some very cool features that make it cool and unique
- Kickstarting the Vespa
- Where the battery is located on a 1970s Vespa 100 Sport
- The location of the engine/motor on the Vespa (hint: it's not in the middle, it's on the side)
- How to access the motor and spark plug
- Where the battery is located on a 1979 Vespa 100 Sport
- How to access the spare tire on the Vespa 100 Sport
- How to shift and how many gears the Vespa has
- Top speed on a Vespa 100 Sport
- Controls / switches for signals, headlights, horn, etc. on the 1979 Vespa 100 Sport
- Front and back brakes on the 100 Sport (similar to modern motorcycles, different from modern Vespas)
- Filling gas and two stroke oil mixing on a Vespa 100 Sport
- Closing thoughts on who should (and should not) buy this bike, in case you happen to see a 1979 Vespa Sport 100 for sale.

That is a gorgeous (likely German market) Vespa 100, but it's not the 100 Sport. That had a door for the battery compartment on the left side, a larger headlight, front and rear turn indicators on cast aluminum stems. The 100 Sport was a North American model with changes to suit the DOT requirements.
Hmm, interesting. Either way she's gone now.
had one in 1987,
A lot of character and fun. I have a modern Vespa as well. I probably love it almost as much as my Harley-Davidson V-Rod but for opposite reasons haha.
I had an orange Vespa 100 as my first bike. I was 13, it had been under the stairs for quite some time. Learnt to work on it, mix the fuel, repair the carbs, change the plug, adjust the point, replace the cylinder head, never got to restoring it.
It got sold when i let for higher studies. I Miss it like hell.
That's awesome! And way more than I ever did to this one. I hope you find another one out there one day
@@YouMotorcycle currently restoring a Family Heirloom 67 VLB1T but I crave for the smallframe 100. They have become extremely rare unfortunately. 😥
Nice vespa broo...thanks for watching my pure sound of my vespa 😝
I want another Vintage Vespa but may settle for a more modern one... Stay tuned! 😊
DUDE these are great videos just found your channel sad you have to let the vespa go😥
Thanks man. I was happy to make some space for something new... Just need to figure out a way to get bigger bikes into the house now! 🤔
