Case repair for Vespa VBB. I seem to come across many cases with this same break; often "repaired" with 2-part epoxy. This area has been removed, built up with aluminum, milled, then drilled and tapped for m6. I specialize in factory repairs- I would not have it any other way. workshop

P-series stator repair. This one came in with previous "repair" with poor craftsmanship. We turned this around the same day and back to factory spec and Ohm tested. DM if you have a stator that needs repaired as most can be turned around quickly.

Reasons why we can't have nice things and I do not quote-it's simply time + materials on your decades old Vespa. Vespa GTR shipped over for a non-running engine. It got deep to the point that I am now the unexpected owner. Too many unknowns, too many hands, too much poor work. I have a donor choke tube ready as this GTR model is a neat bike!
