I think I need to set the spring preload on the vespa up a notch or two OR loose like 25 pounds,,, been touching down in the corners ,, not all the time but here and there,, and let's keep the hair and fat jokes down to a dull roar ok Rich?

More likely you have to keep in mind what you're riding. It's not a Ducati Panigale you know. Scooters are not Superbikes.

Then you should learn how to hang off and drag your knee and elbow like the Pros.

I find my front end to be a bit Chattery. i'm late to the gate with my Big Bore build so I think I'll just enjoy her this summer and work on the Front Suspension. I'll start with a different High Quality Viscosity Fork oil then move to shim or spacer. I have a bud at progressive suspension so I may try to match up some progressive fork spring's. The rear shocks seem to be adequate so far. Ride On! Clone

i run progressive,,,good springs,,almost all my big wheel bike had them,,,,this vespa has coil overs front and rear so it's easier to just go bitubo and buy the whole unit and swap it out,,these little tires remind me of the 6 wheel ELF formula cars back in the day,,too funny,, the pirelli's i have on it stick pretty good i must say
