Hey your March link goes to a log in page, not a store with merch.

[@RonConsumer]

Mitch you've torn so many scooters apart and put them back together you no longer need the manual for most things scooter related... great job and videography as always... 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Thank you Ron! More videos like this coming 😄👍🏼

[@auraglasswerks4900]

@@MitchsScooterStuff Did you ever fix that fictitious link for a scooter part in that video that I had to spend two weeks remedying because I bought the wrong part thanks to your link?

[@reneehughes7860]

I have learned so much about my 125 Vino from watching your videos. Ten years ago I had to park it in my garage with only 58 miles on it due to life-threatening illnesses. It's now at a shop being made road ready. Because of your videos I knew what to expect. So, at 67yo, I'm going to be riding again. Mostly in parking lots until I'm road ready myslf again. Thank you for your tutorials.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

That’s great to hear! I am glad you are getting back on vino 😄🙌🏼

[@pajo55]

I don’t even own a scooter, but this was so fun to watch, so relaxing. You did an amazing job 🙌👏

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Hey thank you so much! 😊

[@himars_m142]

Have no scooter but love to watch on your work! This is masterpiece!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Wow thank you! More videos like this coming 😄🤙🏼

[@andyostertag]

Thanks again Mitch for sharing your experience. It's entertaining watching you go after and tackle your projects on scooters I do, do not, nor wish to possess. I learn something every video. Be well and good 👊

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

😄🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@devonshire56]

I learned so much from this video...thank You !!!

Glad could help!

Nothing can compare with making things alive again. Mitch . you are a great creater👍

Thanks 😄🤙🏼

Excellent video! It's great to see the revival of a Vespa! Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷

Thank you very much! I have more vespas coming :)

[@mokokawi]

thanks for fixing it up good for Danielle

[@marshmaz]

I caught your sickness Mitch !! 3 Vinos (2 × 125 ) 2 x 50 )and a Benzhou !! ( 4 ) Are here to play on! Vespa 's here in B.C are expensive! Great Channel!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

That’s awesome man! I bet! I saw some on sale online when visiting my family in Lynden

[@MirchiBoy]

👊 the flashback around 05:30 is amazing

[@thewags4720]

You’re the reason I’ve started collecting Honda elites I had no idea they existed until I saw your Chanel and I love them thank you for bring them to my life and thank you for showing me how to work on them, I love your Channel

[@bell2bry]

Mitch you are the coolest. I just bought my wife an LX50 in about the same shape as Daniele's LX150. Your video has inspired me to work on the scooter myself and most of all change the bulbs to LEDs. Great work Mitch!! Thanks

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

😄🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️

[@mikecarr1484]

Your videos are way better than anyone else's. Because you do not talk thru and waste time talking. Love your videos bro. Keep it up dude. Nice work on these scooters.

[@johngraham8052]

Enjoyed your video. It's great seeing people enjoying life as it's contagious. I was going to post that the bad running could have been bad fuel (as it goes off if sat a while), well that was up until the petrol started running onto the ground and you started tearing her apart like a pro. Keep up the great work.

[@irishrover63]

Good job Mitch, such a long time ago. My Vespa GTS 300 still has original lighting, I'm not convinced LED is much better considering the effort required to convert. Flashing brake light is illegal here. 👍

[@DanielleGraybill]

in which country or state are you in? illegal flashing brake light - uhh oh

[@jacobturnquist877]

Quality content as always 🤙🤙🤙

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Thank you Jacob!

[@Bri-tg6xr]

Hey Mitch I've followed your videos for a while now and I'm shocked to see we have a mutual friend. I went to school with Danielle in middle school in PA. Ask her if she knows a Brian. I'm sure she remembers my sister and I. Tell her I said HI! And that I'm jealous she rides scooters in such a beautiful place.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Hey Brian, wow that’s crazy small world!! I will ask her! 😄👍🏼

[@SAM-zt2uy]

Can’t believe how similar it all is to the ET4 really need to get mine on the road!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

😁👍🏼👍🏼 also I got a ET4 like yours, that need to get fixed up... will get on it soon!

[@kwenternet]

So relaxing to watch you restore these scooters man. Love2 from Philippines!

I am not a huge fan of the moder Vespa, but I do learn a lot of the mechanics of the new ons on this video, great job!

[@ogulcansafaozturk7147]

one of the best maintenance videos i've ever watch. great job!

[@michaelduke4500]

Excellent work Mitch!!! I love the LED light conversion the best, along with getting rid of the US "stalk" turn signals.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Thanks Michael! Yeah!! Looks way better 😄👍🏼

[@dean9377]

Love the content Mitch. I love the excitement you show for scooters.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

I miss this! Our old times in Austin. You are an amazing person. Loved Vespa LX 150 especially the color! Sexy color :-) I appreicate you, Mitch!

safety comes FIRST! :-)

[@Patrick-gi5kp]

Great work! Awesome new tail light setup too, big improvement on visibility!

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Thank you! Yes better visibility at night is so important… only one small light on back never feel safe

[@DanielleGraybill]

@@MitchsScooterStuff I agree with you 100%!!! I need to install bright led lights on rear of my Lapizuli!

[@jimalcantara6638]

I love that you left that part in that you forgot to change the manifold and gasket.

[@fmscooter768]

love your videos and how you show all details, i can see in your videos that you just love scooters and work on them, so nice to see, hope more videos like that to come, better than watching tv for me

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

Thank you FM! I have more videos like this coming!

[@linusgallitzin]

I have the same carrier. I wonder how you loaded the scooter on it, because I don't trust loading it on mine. It doesn't have a ramp like more expensive motorcycle carriers. My car is a also little lower to the ground, which probably doesn't make the carrier real safe over bumpy roads. Great job on the tear down. That is an amazing deal for that price, especially if the motor started when just changing the battery. Catching the cracks in the manifold and CVT inspection was great too. Awesome job.

[@MitchsScooterStuff]

If you have small scooter like up to 150cc on carrier behind your car should be okay... Two people help lift it onto the carrier will work... I thought I got it on the video but didn't... Thank you!

[@nkexploringthevibe]

hey just subscribed so I came across your channel while looking at getting a used vespa I already own 22 plate lambretta 125cc v special which I love but also wanted vespa and the piaggio lxv 125 as I love how the handlebars and speedo dial is based on a the retro vespa , so bought a 2008 model with 9k on the clock after watching a previous video of yours you helped me decide and what to check when getting a used bike and how easy maintenance on these vespas seem to me im willing to have a go and do work if I need to myself your video gave me the confidence thank you I can not wait to put some milage on the vespa not a fast off the mark as my lanbretta but fun and looks cool ,

[@SCALE_SLOTCARS]

Just found your channel and after watching this post I immediately subscribed. Great work!

you are an artist, great job done, great passione, Greetings from Rome, Italy

[@sandwaves5642]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 I had a Gilera - about same age.( same system as the Vespa ).... I replaced front / rear bulbs to LEDs - nothing more was added / needed. The flashers - I replaced the flasher relay - less work, than fiddeling with resistors.... Those who have some "special" flasher relays, and can't find them for an adequate price for LEDs - can always buy a couple of simplest LED relays, and use them together......

[@1967dragonaxe]

Man, I wish I lived close to you!!!! Awesome work 👍

Just discovered your content and I am very impressed, I personally own a 2003 piaggio Vespa ET2 50cc with 300 original miles that I purchased for $750 and fell in love instantly because it turns heads everywhere I go and everyone wants to buy it because it’s rare in the US,I even got it with the original tool kit,I have videos on it on my channel if you want to check it out
