i bought this bike because i have always liked the way they looked, i spent about a year in the Czech Republic and fell in love with them. My friends all like Vespas, too trendy and pseudo hip for me, give me a jawa any day. I donĀ“t know anything about the speed or handeling of these, can someone tell me and also give me tips on working on them, it is all there, but is not yet running. Thanks. Rock!
