What
This is our second undercover workshop event for owners of classic geared Vespas. If you want to learn a little more about the inner workings of a classic Vespa and how to maintain them in top working order, then come along.

The 2-hour event will be capped at 20 participants. David and Rolf will conduct the session. Our last workshop presented an overview of classic Vespas from the front end to the rear. We also discussed 2-stroke motor theory. This time we’ll get down to the nitty gritty of performing various tasks via practical demonstrations. Rolf will be changing a VBA gear change tube. David needs to swap out cables on a bare PE frame. He will also remove and replace some engine case bearings. Questions are welcome throughout the informal presentation as are your own observations, knowledge and input.

When
Saturday afternoon, 2-4 pm, 15 July 2023
