Looking forward to the next one! Good to see that there are options out there short of scrapping the bike altogether!

I love your films Robot . They are a great help fixing my Vespas . Thank you .

Looking forward, to the next video Robot. I have seen JB auto weld used on some crank covers. But that's just to hide the problem.

Definitely excited to see another P series rebuild. Mostly to see what’s in my future……😅

Bummer about the crack, but very interested in the rebuild and new cases.

Thanks Robot. Really useful. I have oil seeping from my floorboards/frame as you mention. I’ve checked/renewed tank and sightglass fittings and couldn’t see oil pooling below the tanks. But it’s still seeping through. How do you get to that bit of the frame to clean out what must still be in there?

Appreciate this video, thank you Robot. Looking forward to the next step.

I have a question Robot if I may. I’ve ridden street bikes since 1974 and have recently become interested in Vespas. I twist my own wrenches and currently have a 1977 BMW airhead motorcycle I fool with. Could you recommend a year or model range of the two-stroke manual transmission Vespas that I could be looking at if I were to buy one to begin my Vespa journey. A classic look at around or 150cc or so, a two-stroke that may be relatively high on the reliability list. I appreciate your videos and you have helped me move in this direction. Thank you so very much. - Joe

Hello Robot, I'm having issues with idle... When it's on the stand it idles as it should but as soon as I take it off the stand it begins to idle up noticeably. Do you have any advice on where to start looking?

Forgot to mention it's a 1980 p200e

Over tight throttle cable ?
