Reliable classic 1960s Italian Vespa and Lambretta scooters, restored to your specifications with all-new motor parts, from a shop with a world-wide reputation you can trust. -And parts too!
After spending an afternoon at ScootRS, I wanted to order one of their Lambrettas because of the quality of their shop (yes, an actual shop).
scootRS Lambretta Vespa Scooters & Parts Manufacturing has a factory/shop in Saigon, Vietnam, and different stock locations. It is run by a Canadian who has been in Asia since 1991. In his former life he was known to wait out Montreal snowstorms pondering philosophical conundrums, such as whether to attend lectures when it is -25 Celcius. He still dreams of Schwartz's smoked-meat sandwiches (see the film trailer or photos) and Fairmount's onion bagels. –The initiates know.
Great parts: we are one of the larger classic scooter parts manufacturers around, making metal, stainless steel, cast alloy, rubber, and plastic items. We sell direct to customers all over the world, and to the best scooter shops on each continent. There are always 5 qualities of every part at different prices, but we concentrate on providing good consistent quality at a decent price, along with some budget items, supplying them with good organization, accountability, and service. We continually develop new products, many of which are upgrades for classic scooters like our disc brakes and Vespa CDI kits, or world firsts like our tubeless rims. Each month there are new parts onsite and improvements made to old ones.
Our approach to scooters: we basically invented the entire “classic-scooters-from-Asia” business in the 1990s. When we first began we imported a number of basic parts unavailable in the country, then more and more. We wanted to provide people with the cheapest entry into the scooter world but soon realized that nothing less than fully-restored motors on the scooters here were prone to problems. Thus, years ago, we began importing a full line of parts for our restorations and offering scooters where all the critical items - crankshaft, flywheel, gears, etc. - are new so you don't have to worry about anything. Our experience and attention to quality and reliability has led to positive reviews in the major world scootering magazines, and awards for our scooters at rallies in various countries.
It is also interesting to note that we sell absolutely nothing locally unless some crazy ex-pat is willing to pay for Western standards, instead focussing entirely on Western quality and markets.
After years of extremely hard work and attention to customer feedback, we actually think we now do provide the best value anywhere! -And we thank everyone who provided feedback and made suggestions along the way and helped us reach our goal.
