Hi all I have just got this to fix ready for next summer . It's a italjet velocifero 50cc moped and as my mate justin has one and my brother has one too I had to have one courtesy of justin. Here's are some pics on my trusty work truck. This yellow one apparently is the only one in the UK in this colour.    |

The rear lights are drooping down as they are loose and need tightening up.

I cannot see the picture you could try uploading it with photobucket. Which doesn´t necessarily mean you can see that pic then, as pbucket is really sh*t.  He might use this rather new upload option of this very forum. Please look below the quick reply section down there ( Drop Image To Upload! Or Click Here!) I've been using PB for years now, never had a problem.....? |

I had a P-reg navy and silver one in 1998/9 - it was a f***ing nightmare.
The Morini engine was awful and regularly let me down. Couple that with garages not having a clue, including Suzuki dealers that should have been used to it from the AP50 scooter (if it had been a Piaggio or Minarelli motor, it would have been fine), a back brake that jammed on when it was used and rust, it was disposed of rather quickly.
When it did run though, it was pretty nifty and was very eye catching.

Thank god I'm not the only one, I though having an unhealthy interest in old mopeds was a solo activity. Anyway here's my 2 that i'm on with.   |
