Greetings from the city with a handle I've got a '68 SS180, and it is in dire need of new shocks. It's stock and all original, and I do a lot of 2-up riding...
You can most probably rebuild your old shock. It comes apart fairly easily. May just need oil, or maybe the seal. Take it off and take it apart. Got for it!...
It's really easy to take apart� Did it last summer, but the problem was to get it together again with the oil inside - the oil really didnt want to pour...
Hi All, Does anyone know of a replacement from a current bearing manufacturer for parts 52756 (Roller Track) and 52759 (Rollers)? This is flywheel-side...
I'm pretty sure the bearing only comes as a unit from bearing manufacturers, not in bits (now anyway). Maybe not back in the 60's. I got all the bits ...
This is a very difficult one, I know: Does anyone have an idea where I could find a 6Volt bulb for a speedo of a Vespa GS 150 - VS 5? Including the socket? Or...

The socket is fairly basic. It's strip of metal with a wire on it. The bulb & metal strip fit in the space below the speedo so the light shines up to the face...

OK, so I've been trying to put a new front shock on the SS tonight. Major obstacle: getting too the damned thing. I've got the front wheel, drum, brakes, and...
there is a locating pin that screws/taps (can't remember which) into the front fork linkage. remove this pin and the bit pivot pin will push out. that's why...
... The manual is here: <http://scooterhelp.com/serial/VSC1T.parts.book.html> I've had mine to pieces, and it is a hell to get part #36 on side 28 out. I did...
If you take off the fork link cover, you can tap(or pound) the pin out from the other side. I did manage to break off the tab that's welded onto pin #36(page...

... Do like this: * take of the cap on the outside (#55) * take of the brake shoes * unscrew #34 * now comes the (potentially) hard part; tap out the part #36 ...
... Thanks! oh yeah, i forgot the 2nd part of your question: I have a coil-over style smallframe shock to replace it with. So yes, there is even more work of...
Thank to everyone for the great tips on the shock replacement! A virtual round of brews to you all. When I got home last night I had the pin out in 30 seconds,...
