About Uwe
Uwe is our expert when it comes to the professional destruction of classic Vespa parts. He's suspicious of anyone who pretends to enjoy driving.
In his opinion, the motorway is also the best place where you can move a scooter in a species-appropriate manner. Traffic lights are good too. There is no better way to train your own reaction time and wheelies skills.
Traffic jam is not so good. By car. Why people voluntarily lock themselves in there and then stand around and complain about it afterwards will certainly never be plausible to him. A driving style that can be called more Indian is therefore his passion.
All the parts we develop in-house for the classic vehicles from Pontendera therefore usually find their way to his scooters first. Only parts that permanently withstand his daily torture are included in the delivery program. As a matter of principle, he only has his cell phone to measure driving data. In his opinion, a SIM card is only for ADAC members.
If it breaks down on the way to work, that's just punishment for bad screwing.
In the Vespa LargeframeUwe feels really at home in this area, which is why a GT125 (1967) in the summer and a rather disfigured PX from '82 in the winter are among his preferred means of transport. An original Smallframe (90 racers) is still waiting for the first kilometers. An SKR125 matures into a classic in a garage corner. But thoughts of a Cosa also become more and more important with increasing age.
