A "wolf in sheep's clothing": the fastest Lambretta around

Published on 20 Mar 2009 by Alison

Italy’s Lambretta scooter shows its neverending fascination and charm, and takes on a new look in this sports version from the guys at 100mph Lambretta Club. This scooter is small, but hard core!

The Lambretta prototype has been designed to become the fastest Lambretta around, capable of reaching a speed of 180 km/hr. It is an exercise in spot the original components, although the longer wheelbase, brakes and wheels have been maintained.

This Lambretta is equipped with a 250cc, two-stroke engine well tuned to give it that extra grunt. Have a look at the video after the jump on a Lambretta-Ferrari drag race!
