Man there are some real shady sellers out there and even more dopey buyers ( that would be me),,, the other tail light got to the house today and it's a total piece of kaka like the other one,,, geez,,, I have more tied up in those two turkeys than if I would have gotten an NOS one from Vespa ,,, so I bit the bullet and got a nice one coming ,,and expedited shipping so I didn't have to wait as long,,, it's a Vespa 180ss lite about 1/2 the size of the GIGANTIC TAILLIGHT FROM OUTER SPACE, that came on the bike originally , I also ordered a new stainless rounded front fender cap and three more tubeless rims,,,

I know man, they use that crumbly metal and connectors that fall apart. You just want to shove it up their bazooka. I'm tired of the cheap Chinese crapola. I was cleaning out the shop and some stuff back in a corner was just astoundingly cheap, the plastic was brittle, the metal was cheap, it was all of the stuff from the original Frankie except the frame! I threw it the hell out. As a group we need to unite and quit patronizing the cheap stuff and insist on decent parts. This is ridiculous. If everybody wasn't hell bent on saving two bucks these guys would be out of business. We do it to ourselves. Rant over. Rich
