I find the black Bandit 600 usually parked next to it much better!

MonkeyTennis

galwaytt

Ask, or leave the owner a note, asking is this what they mean by 'Taffspeed' ??

It's a scooter joke.........he might get it..........

Looks like something you would see at a circus

Taffspeed are scooter tuning specialists in Wales, who certainly started off with tuning Vespas and Lamberettas

Think it looks class .... have to respect the effort put into it, but to own I'd rather an irish gixxer version;)

Wondered about that one. I assume the driver is Welsh. I think I saw this one heading north in Whitehall this morning.

Not my bag but looks well done.

i think he went there and spent £2000 sterling on that look for the bike. The bike is indeed a vespa.

That would have been him he lives in Clontarf and works near the Airport.

MonkeyTennis

he may have a hard time selling it unless tom jones is in town and feels the need to nip through the morning traffic.

It could happen

I was thinking that's fairly cheap for a new paintjob, upholstery, and what appears to be some custom mouldings....

Yup. Soundtrack by The Who, basically about the Brighton Mods/Rockers riots. Showin my age now, I is.

Stereophonic

Ah, I sold you man (owner) a radio for that bike. I couldn't believe he was putting a radio on it. He's a Welsh man, big rugby supporter and he travels Europe on that bike. He said it's extremely reliable. I see him every now and again

Dub13

It has a radio aswell...LOL,I am starting to like this guy far play to him.

FiSe

It's unique one off and HIS. That's what it's all about. I like it a lot, pitty I didn't do the paintwork

Guys your talking about Lee from Scooter Island.

www.scooterisland.com

An absolute gent. You guys should hear that scooter idle, sounds like an old RD350LC, sounds beautiful. He's a sh*t load of Mods done on the body & engine.

If anyone here was ever to consider getting into scooter's drop down and talk to Lee.

Drax

I am almost sure I saw that bike on show in the RDS Bike show last year! Seriously.
