Hey all My German is terrible so apologies for having to write in English. I have a question on importing an oldie into Germany. Its a spanish 150 S that you may recognise from being Zidane's scooter from the adidas Road to Lisbon commercial back in the day. Its currently in Holland and has dutch licenseplate & papers. The issue is that a German colleague of mine wants to buy it but I'm unsure of the TUV restrictions of the import. In holland we dont have TUV or anything like that. I replaced the shitty piston ported engine with a nice p200 Malossi and SIP road. From the outside it doesnt looked tuned but I'm keen to get some TUV or import advice. Will it be a huge pain to get it registered/ tuv'ed with the bigger engine? Very many thanks John

hey No lelystad this year. Re run of the rotterdam circuit as last year. I think details are on lambrettaclub.nl - not involved in the organisation anymore. speak soon - maybe at teh ring tomorrow? May have to cancel - will know tomorrow....

Just got a message back from Hans ""Hi John! The end time of the inspection is not fixed. I think it will be about 7pm. If you are not able to come to the inspection on saturday there will surely be the opportunity to get checked on sunday morning. In this case please come to the papers office on sunday. We will be there from 7am on and the technical inspector will surely be there between 7 and 8am. Best wishes Hans Cramer" So all good as I'll be there before 7pm so all good. Thx all. John

ooh - don't worry - I wont miss that!

hey I heard from Hans Cramer that the techinical inspection starts at 4pm on the saturday but does anyone know when the technical inspection runs until?. I dont think I will be able to make it for 4pm on Saturday and was hoping to turn up later that evening John #41.

I'm coming too - was away from the ring too long!

hey lummel! Heeft die niet helaas - hij zoekt er zelf ook nog een. Graham heeft er wel een gevonden voor me op ebay - 103 euro voor ik hoop een net ding.

Bump - und fur "suche"- suche gern een SX Lenker. Es tut mir leidt dass mein Deutsch so schlecht ist. Aber ich kann ihn verstehen so kein Problem wenn sie mir eMail auf Deutsch schickt.

Last pieces I need for my sx200 resto - headset top & bottom for an SX. Needs to be for non chrome ring. Hope that someone has one for me. Many thanks John Amsterdam & Nurnberg.

hey Stefan etc I already asked the same question on the ESC topic so please forgive me for repeating myself but we're thinking of having our next dutch scooter race in Rotterdam (replacing the lelystad demo race) on 24-25 july 2010 - we obviously dont want to clash with ESC or other classic scooter racing so hoping that this date is still available. Would be great to know if this is already booked by someone. Thx John Lambretta Club Nederland & Amsterdam Vespa Club.

for those watching this topic - we're doing another amsterdam scooter weekender end of October but this time no shitty custom show. More info: http://www.germanscooterforum.de/Termine_f...er_t174464.html

This time no scooter show as we werent very good at that! We are good at the redlight district, drinking, smoking, a big ride out & a nice party on the Saturday. For those still eager to win a plastic prize we will be giving out prizes at the ride out. Hope to see many of our german friends again! Thx John

nope - 180 dont work on this anymore. TBWA still do the localisation but most of the work is done by Sid Lee out of Canada. In the big scheme of things this isn't really such a big campaign so dont worry about Also remember adidas isn't retro. adidas has always been there...
