marchald-airfilter_06New at our online shop you will find the Marchald Power Airfilter range. Available in different sizes and in racy black or red.

These airfilters are a serious alternative to the RamAir filters. One of the main advantages are the different sized adaptors. This gives a perfect fit of the air filter. The small adaptors are even adjustable at the angle by 0°, 7,5° and 15°.. Read more

screen SCOOTER CENTER was glad to visit the 1st Italian Customshow in Riva del Garda.

A nice place associated with scenic landscapes, nice roads around the lake itself. Something you could really enjoy. Something we have seen at least while arriving and leaving. The rest of the time we have spend doing the Scooter Center stall at the Customshow and enjoying the weekend at the Do’s.

The Customshow was organized by Italian’s umbrella organization SIR and local club Corsi di Alpi. It took place together with the car and bike show “Motorissma” and the Customshow had a massive hall downstairs. If you would have landed there by accident no one would get the idea that it was the first time for a scooter Customshow in Italy. Roughly 60 scooters were on display. There were more Lambrettas on show and the quality of the work was higher as well. Uncommon for us was that the show took place on two days. But even better so we had two Nighters for relaxing.

With the start of your ‘one stop online shop‘ we are glad to stock the even uprated version of our bullet proof Vespa 54 mm long stroke crankshaft for the Vespa Smallframe.

The Highend Full Race crankshafts runs very succesfully on some of the 30 hp+ FALCS. More stroke means more torque and more power. This makes the 54 mm stroke Smallframe crank the right choice where power matters.

Beside the proofed features as:

  • forged crank webs
  • 54 mm stroke
  • forged con rod with 105 mm length
  • silver big end bearing
  • 20 mm diameter of the big end pin
  • 20 mm bearing seat at flywheel seat
  • Made in Europe!

we gave the forged con rod a stunning CNC finish.

MautstelleYeeeeeha !

Go Vespisti, Go !

Tutto buono, Servus, Ciao !

Approximated 5.000 Vespisti have partied like it have -probably- never been done before there. More than 2.000 scooterists have taken part in the ride out to the Großglockner (at 3.780 meters height). A rehersal for the wild night that had to come!

The main street was firmly occupied by the Vespisti crowd. Really twisting the melons of the car drivers with the Vespa having right of way everywhere and everytime.
The local bars decided to spin the local mix of Apres Ski Music with the things like DJ Ötzi, Wolfgang Petri and like minded stuff.

To give it a proper Run atmosphere Enzo decided to do some burn outs and bounced some rear tyres with Oliver immaculate Rally 200. The local cops looked surprised and thanks to the superiority of the Vespisti nothing else happened. So no arresting in Austria. Like times have changed…

Buona Notte – Tanta Lotte !

st830118Now we are getting literarily. Some few syllables have to give you the complete picture of the atmosphere in Zell and all the things going on with our team.

“Today: 2nd day. For some of us the first day.
Cristall clear rivers. Tschüsch.
Less than 8 literes per 100 km. 11 hour ride on our GTs 250 & 300 and less than 3.5 literes per 100 100 km.

Servus, good night.”
Some proper words tomorrow!

cimg0982After a stop over im Munich for some proper Schnitzel and beer we arrived in Zell am See today.
Because of the cheaper price for Diesel in Austria – over 10 cent per litre savings, we tried to cross the border for filling. With the high tech dashboard reading 13 km coverage and only 10 km to go, all seemed to work fine. Despite for this hill and the sudden reading ood the coverage of 0 km.
