SCOOTER CENTER ClassicDay # 2
On Saturdays from 10:00 the SCOOTER CENTER all about the classic Vespa and Lambretta Scooter.
The following program is available until 16 p.m. at the SCK ClassicDay:
MSF Records Day
In the SCOOTER CENTER Max Speed Festival at Meinerzhagen Airport (mzH´09) it hailed records in the best weather:
- over 1.000 visitors
- fastest scooter: 169,4km/h Piaggio ZIP
- fastest Lambretta 164,2 km/h
- fastest Vespa 144,8 km/h
Cylinder -AIRSAL 77ccm Racing X-treme (39,2mm stroke) - Minarelli LC
The Airsal with a 50 mm hole for Minarelli is available for 40mm and 45mm stroke. The Airsal crankshafts are delivered with 80 mm connecting rods.
The large overcurrent channels are similar to the channels of the MHR Big Bore. The rectangular outlet shape is known from Polini Evolution.
We were really happy again, the Seven7 parts from Austria have finally arrived. You can find an overview of the available products under this LINK.
All parts have been tested in practice by the Lambretta driver for the Lambretta driver. Martin has invested countless hours in developing and improving his parts. He approached the production just as meticulously. He did not shy away from using a 5-axis CNC milling machine. The result is perfect parts that do not require any rework and are manufactured to zero. It couldn't be better!
Lambretta cylinder RACETOUR kits from MB DevelopmentsFinally they are ready, the Racetour cylinder kits from MB Developments!
This morning we received the first delivery of the Lambretta Race-Tour cylinder kits achieved. The complete Lambretta tuning kits are available for both the small and the large Lambretta engine blocks.
The standard sizes we have in stock are the 64 mm Bore with 190 cc and the 69 mm Bore with 220 cc. On request, we can also order the kit with the legendary 205 cc displacement (67 mm bore).
In principle, we also get any other borehole from MB Developments. For example with the forged race-tour pistons in: 64.5, 65, 68, 70 and 71mm diameter.
The kits are Made in the UK, and Mr. Bee has incorporated his more than 20 years of tuning experience into the development. An all-round carefree package has come out. The kits can be used with carburetors from 18 - 35 mm and all exhaust systems be driven.
The piston-controlled cylinders have the carburettor on the left-hand side, so they can be driven with the standard air filter box. The kits also offer the perfect starting point for every Group 4 racer.
MB has tested engines with Plug & Play built-in cylinders that put 20 bhp into the roller with 19 lbs ft of torque, perfect for fast road touring.
The kits contain the coated Race-Tour aluminum cylinder, the forged Race-Tour piston, a centered cylinder head, the MB cylinder stud set, seals, small parts and detailed instructions.

msf 2009
The date is: 26.09.2009.
The MaxSpeed Festival (MSF) was the highlight of the season 2008 and will take place again in Meinerzhagen in 2009.
The OK for the location has just come.
Let the race begin!
We have the brand new in the program Lambretta disc brakes by tuning legend Paul Melici. Road tested and admired umpteen times on the Customs in scootering, this is the ultimate disc brake for the Lambretta.
Last weekend the 19th run of the “Cologne Course” from MSC Porz took place.
We from SCOOTER CENTER TEAM were again represented in large numbers.
After the final preparations and joint inviting of all the equipment and the racing scooters on Saturday morning, it was finally around 14:30 p.m. towards the ring. Once there, we met many familiar faces. The large CONTINENTAL TENT, the grill, the racing scooters etc. were quickly unloaded and set up.
After the technical acceptance, transponder assembly and the legendary driver briefing, the final preparations were made on the scooters.
Luckily got that SCOOTER CENTER TEAM still the box no. 25. So the very rainy Saturday evening with a barbecue under the tent, music and the typical gasoline conversations was a complete success for those present from the Classic Scooter racing scene.
It wouldn't be the ring if it weren't for rain and sun on a weekend, an old Nürburgring rabbit once told me. The same thing happened on Sunday at 8:00 a.m. with the first coffee it was still quite humid and punctually at 10:00 a.m. for training it was nice and dry.
Almost all of our 12 scooters got through more or less well, but even our “T-Roller” was still used.
Fortunately, a lot of spectators came to the ring. Many familiar faces from the scooter scene were present. Overall, drivers from all parts of Germany but also from AT, GB, BE, FR and even Canada were represented.
At about 14:00 the start finally took place, the one with a
- 2nd place in regularity,
- the fastest "girl scooter" and
- with 12 scooters from 70 starters, on our part
was generally very satisfactory. We are already looking forward to the next race.
Greetings to all contributors - see you soon and get well soon to start number 6.

Since 2004, regular scooter races have taken place on the Nürburgring again.
We owe this opportunity to the MSC Porz, who offers a “regularity run” for classic scooters as part of the Cologne course. For most of us that means: evenly full throttle! ;-)
On Saturday was heavy rain in the dry SCOOTER CENTER Box grilled and screwed in the paddock.
We were able to greet many friends and familiar faces again. The hard core was swept out of the box at 1:30 - after all, the first training session was scheduled for 10:40 on Sunday.
Sunday came up with the best weather. During training we had 20 minutes to determine the fastest drivers and then to determine the starting grid. In the first row of the grid there were 1 starters from SCOOTER CENTER Team (Harry Barlow & Christian Schneider).
If the weather was fine, repairs and maintenance work could be carried out in the open air after the first training session. After the SCK grill had given everything again at noon, the race started.
The Green Hell took its toll: of 65 starters, only 45 made it to the finish (cancellations, no accidents)
The SCOOTER CENTER Team was able to record several successes:
Place 2 Christian Schneider (Regularity evaluation)
Tanya Kluger - fastest woman in the field ;-)
The next appointment at the Nürburgring for classic scooters is September 13 “Renoldus Sprint”
The SCOOTER CENTER is looking forward to it!
After a long back and forth between Gilardoni and AF Rayspeed about the future of the legendary TS1 cylinder, it was probably the precarious economic situation that led to the TS1 being reissued.
He's been back this morning available to us. In the usual Gilardoni quality. With the one for the RB22 kit improved piston with two 1 mm thin rings and the thousandfold proven quality.
So: who has not yet, or wants to go again? SHOP
The battery holder is overrated anyway ;-)
Find from the Motorcycle magazine MO, in which - a former police officer writes on the subject of scooter tuning:
Colleagues to be ashamed of
I recently watched TV. “Adventure life” on cable one. On the way with the traffic police from ...? I forgot the state. The scene looks familiar to me from my previous occupation as a traffic policeman: A discreetly obese and with the apparently obligatory cliché mustache equipped with a very, very bad mood stands on the roadside next to an intimidated youth whose scooter is currently being tested on a mobile roller dynamometer . Screeching loudly, the 50s two-stroke engine cranks up to around 100 km / h according to the test stand display. The subsequent verbal derailments of my colleague are so disproportionate that I would hardly be surprised if he immediately pulled out his weapon and held it to the trembling boy's head. What a haughty, arrogant asshole! Almost everyone who sees something like this on television probably thinks that way. Which is nothing new in itself. As a responsible motorist, one has meanwhile got used to being verbally flogged for not buckling up.
On Sunday the Munich scooter community met for the annual season opening, the “roll-on”.
The appointment was made in GSF and they met at the classic car meeting on the Theresienweise. “Otto” Jan Brand had once again chosen a great route via Schäftlan Abbey. After about 1,5 hours of driving, the group reached this year's destination: the Aufhofener Weiher.
1st SCK Classic Day on Saturday:
Hats off! Thank you for your attendance - despite the adverse conditions - numerous!
Always nice to see that scooter ride at EVERY weather is fun. 80 test bench runs with a maximum of 38,2 HP on the rear wheel, over 100 sausages and plenty of cola, coffee and beer contributed to a relaxing day.
We hope you've got one or two bargains and we're excited to see how much stainless steel will be on soon Smallframes can be seen ;-).

The whole thing is actually a weekender:

Saturday from 10 a.m. to 00 p.m. Customshow, followed by the party
Sunday scooter parade
The most famous Lambretta of all goes to Aberdeen.
The Li150 Serie3 was driven by Phil Daniels in the movie Quadrophenia as Jimmy Cooper.
One or the other will now say: “Huh? Didn't she go over the cliffs? ”
Tony Cochrane bought the undamaged Li150 from the legendary film Quadrophenia for no less than 36.000 British pounds. This is the highest price ever paid for a Lambretta in England.
Here you go directly to the auction: Info
In the bgm Lambretta cure waves it is the best HPC (high primary compression) racing shafts.
This shaft has the standard stroke of 58 mm and the standard connecting rod length of 107 mm. This makes the shaft a direct replacement for all Lambretta series 1-3 shafts (with the exception of the TV 175 series 1, 2 and 3).
The balancing of this crankshaft is specially designed for the piston weight of the pistons used on the small engine blocks (up to 64 mm bore).
All bgm Shafts are forged. Both the crank webs and the connecting rod are forged. The connecting rod is also polished.
The production of the GT kits will be discontinued. Unfortunately, our friend Richard Taylor doesn't find the time to make the GT kits anymore. The last batch is on its way to us.
We can recommend the GT Kits to all customers who have a small engine case and are looking for a durable touring setup. The Gran Turismo engines are not only powerful in all situations, but also delight with very good consumption values.
Pre-orders are possible from: NOW!
Before they go online soon, here's a little foretaste of the new Lambretta posters.
All reprints of the original advertising motifs from the Nigel Cox collection.
If that's not something for the Lambretta pilot's wish list ...
After Mark Broadhurst's cylinders have successfully passed the test phase, here are the first diagrams of the new RaceTour cylinders.
The market launch should take place at the beginning of next year, we will keep you up to date!
